This study shows that G1 lengthening follows critical dynamics that amplifies cell–cell variation. A novel mathematical model ...

An international team led by researchers at the University of Toronto has mapped the movement of proteins encoded by the yeast genome throughout its cell cycle. This is the first time that all the ...

Researchers studying the molecular mechanisms that control cell growth and division are piecing together a surprising and complicated regulatory system that offers promising targets for anticancer ...

It must be aggressive enough to fight infections and cancer, yet restrained enough to avoid attacking the body's own tissues.

In Alzheimer's, brain cells die too soon. In cancer, dangerous cells don't die soon enough. That's because both diseases alter the way cells decide when to end their lives, a process called programmed ...

When pathogens enter our cells as part of an infection, our body will trigger a programmed cell death known as "pyroptosis" ...

The activation and deactivation of apoptosis is a promising field of research in basic biomedical research. The team led by Prof. Franz Hagn from the Chair of Structural Membrane Biochemistry at the ...
