Dysfunctional Mitochondria Trigger Retrograde Signaling that Impairs Pancreatic β-Cells
Targeting mitochondrial retrograde signaling may therefore be promising in the treatment or prevention of metabolic disorders ...
Brain cells mimic muscle signaling to enhance learning and memory
This influx of calcium at the contact site attracts and activates a kinase called CaMKII, a protein known to be important in ...

Fas triggers an alternative, caspase-8–independent cell death pathway using the kinase RIP as effector molecule
Cell death is achieved by two fundamentally different mechanisms: apoptosis and necrosis. Apoptosis is dependent on caspase activation, whereas the caspase-independent necrotic signaling pathway ...

From muscle to memory: New research uses clues from the body to understand signaling in the brain
New research shows that a network of subcellular structures similar to those responsible for propagating molecular signals that make muscles contract are also responsible for transmitting signals in ...
