This influx of calcium at the contact site attracts and activates a kinase called CaMKII, a protein known to be important in ...
Filopodia help cells move but also aid cancer spread. Scientists have revealed how fascin proteins build these structures, ...
In this manuscript the authors established a novel three-dimensional culture system for stratified epithelia that allows epithelial cells to undergo epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and ...
Every cell in the body normally has its fixed place as part of a tissue structure. Except for a few cell types, such as blood ...
A new study shows how an anticancer drug triggers an "outside in" signal that gets it sucked into a cancer cell.
A new study shows how an anticancer drug triggers an 'outside in' signal that gets it sucked into a cancer cell. The work reveals a new signaling mechanism that could be exploited for delivering other ...

They are used in cleaning our drinking water, treating sewage, processing foods and keeping pharmaceuticals safe—membranes ...
Designing a proton-exchange membrane that will balance the efficiency, durability and safety requirements for hydrogen ...
Researchers have developed a computational method to explicitly consider the impact of water while designing membrane receptors with enhanced stability and signaling, paving the way for novel drug ...
To move, these migratory cells rely on filopodia—sensitive, finger-like protrusions that reach out from the cell membrane into the local environment ... of hexagonal bundles of proteins that give them ...
