The new research reveals a novel mechanism for signal transmission in brain cells and helps answer an open question in neuroscience about how intracellular signals travel over long distances in ...

This influx of calcium at the contact site attracts and activates a kinase called CaMKII, a protein known to be important in ...

New research reveals that brain cells use a muscle-like signaling mechanism to relay information over long distances.

In biology textbooks, the endoplasmic reticulum is often portrayed as a distinct, compact organelle near the nucleus, and is commonly known to be responsible for protein trafficking and secretion. In ...

By visualizing a RhoA biosensor and actin, they found a redistribution of RhoA to the cell periphery and cell-cell junctions after IL-1 stimulation. This triggered the formation of actin bundles at ...

Travelling through one of London’s most notorious junctions could soon be different if plans to shake it up go ahead. The ‘Shoreditch Triangle’ area in east London was named the capital’s ...

New research, published recently in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, uncovers the unique dynamics governing the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)’s evolution and addresses the long-standing ...
