Cell-cell adhesion-induced patterning in keratinocytes can be explained by just starvation and strong adhesion, Hokkaido University researchers find. Fingerprints are one of the best-recognised ...

“Focus has been on how cells become mechanosensitive, how cell adhesion became mechanosensitive through the recruitment of mechanosensitive proteins like talin, vinculin, and also other proteins,” ...

Researchers at Nano Life Science Institute (WPI-NanoLSI), Kanazawa University, demonstrate how morphogens combined with cell adhesion can generate tissue domains with a sharp boundary in an in vitro ...

Nearly 30 years ago, researchers began studying the gene Astn1, which encodes the cell adhesion protein astrotactin 1 in mice ...

Cells attach to each other through carefully arranged molecules. A research team has now found that the way they organize to find their proper places is similar to how grease drops self-organize in ...

Grafting is a widely used agricultural technique, but the slow and unreliable healing of graft unions often limits its efficiency.

Cell culture materials impact a target cell’s ability to proliferate and function as planned. These materials offer precise mechanical and chemical cues that decide a cell's morphology and ...

A study coordinated by the Institut de Neurociències of the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona proposes a new treatment for glioblastoma, the most aggressive brain tumor. The approach involves patches ...
