Throughout our bodies, most of our organs are maintained and repaired through regulated cell division, where new cells replace old ones that are lost or damaged. Before a cell divides, it executes a ...

Microtubules, a key component of the cytoskeleton in eukaryotic cells, serve as scaffolds and play vital roles in cellular processes such as cell division, cell migration, intracellular transport, and ...

A multi-institutional research collaboration has revealed that the microtubule network (*1), which plays a vital role in cell construction and polarization (*2), utilizes the phase separation (*3) ...

Prefoldin 5 stabilises neuronal microtubules and suppresses Tau-mediated neurotoxicity, offering a potential therapeutic target for tauopathies.

A joint research team from the LKS Faculty of Medicine (HKUMed) and the Faculty of Science at the University of Hong Kong has uncovered an unexpected interaction between chemotherapeutic agents and a ...

Microtubule-depolymerising agents disrupt microtubule function by binding to specific sites on β-tubulin subunits; consequently they are ideal for use in cell synchronization studies and also in the ...

Identifying a mechanistic link between the loss of CFTR function and altered cell-signaling control in CF airway epithelial cells – We have identified a number of cell regulatory changes in CF that ...

Researchers have identified a mechanism which can explain aspects of neurodegeneration which have baffled scientists for ...

Identifying the primary site using gene expression profiling in patients with carcinoma of an unknown primary (CUP): a feasibility study from the GEFCAPI ...
