Scientists have uncovered a new way embryonic cells divide when conventional mechanisms fail. Cell division underpins all ...

The awe-inspiring process of cell division can turn a fertilized egg into a baby -- or a cancerous cell into a malignant tumor. With so much at stake, nature keeps it tightly controlled in a process ...

The induction of the cell cycle in cardiomyocytes involves the activation of specific genes that are responsible for regulating cell division and growth. Our laboratory has discovered several ...

Inside the human airway, a certain cell type reigns supreme: multiciliated cells, decorated with dozens of hair-like cilia all beating in tandem. These cells are responsible for clearing out foreign ...

In a recent study published in the journal PLOS Biology, researchers identify and characterize extremely rare terminally differentiated brain neurons that re-enter the cell cycle process. More ...
