Microtubules perform an active role in communication within the cell by transmitting received signals to the cell's ...

Cell signaling is crucial for cells to communicate and function correctly. Disruptions in these pathways, caused by genetic mutations or environmental factors, can lead to uncontrolled cell growth, ...

Interrupting one function of a protein that plays a key role in cell signaling could enable the development of new cancer ...

When a cell receives a message from outside, it generates a molecule called cyclic AMP (cAMP) to relay this message. To ensure the signal reaches the correct effector without triggering pathways ...

Cells typically contain a cytoskeleton, which helps shuttle things around and provides structural integrity, among other ...

T cell immunotherapies are on the cutting-edge of cancer treatments, but a full understanding of how they work has been ...

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic disease in which healthy lung tissue is gradually replaced by scar tissue.

The evolution of the lung represents a compelling chapter in evolutionary developmental biology, highlighting the intricate interplay between genetic mechanisms and environmental pressures during the ...

The most diverse functions of a cell in the human body – from cell division and differentiation to motility and programmed cell death – are controlled by signaling proteins within the cell. This ...
