Cell adhesion is the process by which cells form contacts with each other or with their substratum through specialized protein complexes. Intercellular adhesion can be mediated by adherens ...

Northwestern Medicine investigators have uncovered new insights into how intercellular "glue" functions to enable ...

The effect of saccharin on the microbiome has received much attention, but its impact on pathogenic bacterial species is less ...

There is a trial of strength at the cellular level. Cells are in constant competition with each other and so eliminate diseased or unwanted cells. Cell competition is therefore a central principle for ...

The test can be used to better stratify cancer patients and determine the likelihood of breast cancer metastasizing.

Cells can also send out packages called exosomes, lipid vesicles that bubble off from the cell membrane. But for about 20 ...

By precisely controlling the pore sizes on the thin metal film, which minimizes cell adhesion, this filter enables efficient selection and recovery of target cells without leaving residues.

With the theoretical part extended, this paper would be of interest to cell biologists and biophysicists working on asymmetric partitioning during cell division. Asymmetric partition of fate ...
