New research has found that some cells are isomorphic, meaning they retain their original shape during mitosis and do not turn round. Isomorphic cells usually divide into asymmetrical daughter cells ...

Isomorphic cells usually divide into asymmetrical daughter cells that are meant for different layers of tissue. Even scientists were unaware that mitosis is not always symmetrical—until recently.

Biology study reveals cells defying reproduction rules, showing how shape impacts division and tissue growth. The post ...

The replication appears to be primarily endoreduplication, indicating that ORC-independent replication may promote genome reduplication without mitosis. The mechanism ... Representative H&E staining ...

Fibroblasts play a central role in maintaining healthy tissue structures, as well as in the development and progression of ...

Plankton may be tiny, but they play an important role in the ocean. As the foundation of marine ecosystems, they support ...

"Techniques such as organ-on-a-chip offer an improved option to generate tissue models but, until now, methods to really mimic tissue complexity in these models were lacking. "By creating ...

This study identifies 53BP1 as an interaction partner of GMCL1 (a likely CUL3 substrate receptor). The study seeks to link this finding to regulation of the mitotic surveillance pathway and paclitaxel ...

Dental caries (tooth decay) is a common oral health condition that often causes significant pain and discomfort and may even lead to tooth loss. In severe and untreated cases, bacterial infection ...
