A hallmark of type 2 diabetes is the progressive loss of beta cell mass: cells in the pancreas that produce and release ...
Like so many organisms on the planet, when cells experience mosh-pit-level crowding, they may just become stressed. Yet unlike most other life forms, cells subject to physical stress from crowding by ...
Plant scientists have identified a protein that plays a previously unknown role in controlling cell differentiation and determining gender in vascular plants, using a fern model. The discovery ...
Through simulations and modeling of bacterial colonies, researchers have discovered how dividing cells adapt to crowded environments by slowing their growth, informing strategies for curbing the ...
Shifting brain glucose levels act as a metabolic switch that directs OPC proliferation and myelin formation, revealing a mechanism with developmental and clinical implications.
Researchers at the Advanced Science Research Center at the CUNY Graduate Center (CUNY ASRC) have uncovered a surprising link between low brain sugar levels and the development of myelin - the ...
New research reveals that high glucose levels drive stem cells to multiply, while low levels signal them to mature into ...
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Purdue University plant scientists have identified a protein that plays a previously unknown role in controlling cell differentiation and determining gender in vascular plants, ...
