Stripe patterns are commonly seen in nature—for instance, birds and fish move in coordinated flocks and schools, fingerprints ...

Scientists at Duke-NUS Medical School have developed two powerful computational tools that could transform how researchers ...

Cell-cell adhesion-induced patterning in keratinocytes can be explained by just starvation and strong adhesion, Hokkaido University researchers find. Fingerprints are one of the best-recognised ...

A comprehensive map of aberrant hematopoiesis in people with acute myeloid leukemia defines specific cell states and potential therapeutic targets. The team used their reference map for normal ...

Kidney cells can make memories too. At least, in a molecular sense. Neurons have historically been the cell most associated with memory. But far outside the brain, kidney cells can also store ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. – Sugars known as glycans form dense envelopes around cells. But they’re often ignored in biological investigations because, unlike DNA, proteins and other cellular components, tools to ...

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 ...

Researchers create a magnetic nanoscale system that reversibly switches groove and ridge structures to regulate stem cell adhesion and differentiation. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Tissue regeneration depends ...

The groundbreaking discovery could open new doors for other researchers working with delicate materials such as cell membranes. (Nanowerk News) Imagine drawing on something as delicate as a living ...

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 ...
