A Japanese research team has discovered a novel global cooperative phenomenon of cell interactions in cervical cancer cells.

For example, the cell membrane is not directly visible, while the nucleus can be inferred by the stained DNA found in that organelle. Have students compare the photos with diagrams of the cytoskeleton ...

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

A research team has developed a groundbreaking deep learning-based method for analyzing the cytoskeleton -- the structural framework inside cells -- more accurately and efficiently than ever before.

the cell’s DNA storeroom, rely on the cytoskeleton. Dr. Parkhurst studies its roles in these normal conditions and what goes wrong in cancer cells. She aims to identify new cancer treatment targets or ...

Mechanical Properties of Cancer Cells: A Possible Biomarker for Stemness Deformability of Cancer Stem Cells in Correlation with Invasiveness Cancer Stem Cells' Cytoskeleton Rearrangement and ...

But cancer cells also cross established boundaries ... They transport small 'packages' within the cell and interact with the cytoskeleton, a dynamic scaffold of filaments and tubes that extends ...

When applied to breast cancer cell lines in vitro ... In addition, MicroQuin compounds act on the actin cytoskeleton to block the formation of F-actin in cancerous cells and inhibit their ...

These tube-shaped structures are the second key component of the cytoskeleton and are comprised of numerous tubulin proteins. These tiny tubes are important for transport processes within a cell ...

In our lab, we aim to elucidate the interplay of clathrin structures with the actin cytoskeleton ... especially for cancer. To tackle these questions, we use a multidisciplinary approach combining ...
