Cells can control their ability to move through the body by using a protein called fascin to control the stiffness of neighboring cells, suggests a study published today in eLife.

A new study investigates the role of the S100A8/A9 complex in the replication of HIV.

Circadian clocks, which regulate most of the physiological processes of living beings over a rhythm of about 24 hours, are one of the most fundamental biological mechanisms.

More than 43,000 American women will die from breast cancer this year. Most of those deaths will occur after the cancer has spread to other organs, a process called metastasis. This involves at least five major steps.

In this study, the potential role of LINC00460 was investigated in ccRCC. 113 pairs of ccRCC tissues and para-normal tissues were collected.

ECM Integrity Assay In order to test the integrity of each assay’s ECM, 100 µg/mL of Collagen Type I – FITC conjugate (Sigma-Aldrich) was coated onto wells of an Oris™ assay plate (without stoppers) and a Costar ® plate. These plates were then incubated overnight at 37 °C / 5% CO 2. After incubation, stoppers were inserted into the Oris™ assay plate while sterile PBS was added to both assay plates’ wells. At 1 hour, 24 hour, and 48 hour intervals post-insertion, stoppers were remov...

Mathematical modeling is a tool with the potential to uncover fine detail of the complex cell signaling networks involved in managing the eukaryotic cell cycle.

COVID-19 and lung cancer have a common pathway, say researchers The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a transmissible viral disease caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the pathogen responsible for the ongoing global pandemic. The virus was first detected in Wuhan, China, at the end of 2019 and to date has caused over 109 million infections worldwide. With over 2.4 million deaths, this virus can cause severe disease in certain high-risk groups such as...
