Like a phoenix rising from the ashes, our skin tissue—and in fact many types of epithelial tissue that lines and covers the ...

Abstract: The instance segmentation of overlapping cells in smear images of epithelial cells is challenging due to the significant overlap and adhesion between the cells’ translucent cytoplasm. In ...

Epithelial cells line the body’s surfaces to protect against physical damage, pathogens, and dehydration. These cells play key roles in absorbing nutrients and removing waste products, as well as ...

MAPK signaling works like a molecular switchboard inside epithelial cells, turning outside stress into gene-level commands. IL-33 is an alarm signal cytokine that normally stays tucked inside airway ...

Version of Record: This is the final version of the article. In this manuscript, Dong et al. study the directed cell migration of tracheal stem cells in Drosophila pupae. The migration of these cells ...

This valuable study investigates how inter-organ communication between the tracheal stem cells and the fat body plays a key role in the directed migration of tracheal stem cells in Drosophila pupae.

Urothelial carcinoma is cancer of the urinary system. The urothelium is a kind of epithelial (protective) lining of the urinary system, which includes the urinary tract, bladder, your ureters (the ...

For over 150 years, scientists have known that wounds alter electric fields across skin cells, says cell biologist Min Zhao of the University of California, Davis School of Medicine. But they didn’t ...
