In this interview Prof. Dr. Kristina Kusche-Vihrog speaks about the nanomechanics of living cells and their implications for ...

Our skin and mucous membranes are protected by epithelial cells, which form a barrier that defends the body from the outside ...

Indeed, gamma-actin-deficient mice show altered architecture of the apical surface of epithelial cells and progressive hearing loss. A stiffer cortical membrane may be required to withstand the ...

Epithelial cells defend human skin and mucous membranes. Specialized structures known as “junctions” enable this “barrier” tissue to carry out its role. They control interactions between cells and ...

The cytoskeleton is a network of filamentous and tubular protein structures that support cell shape, intracellular compartmentalisation and trafficking, cell migration and cell division.

Human extracellular matrices can be edited in their composition using the CRISPR/Cas9 system, leading to materials exhibiting tailored regenerative capacities.

Fibroblast activating protein inhibitor (FAPI) PET/CT imaging may be a non-invasive modality to monitor IgA nephropathy (IgAN) progression, preliminary study results suggest.

If you are looking for a high-performance and low-volume women’s boot with Dual BOA (or Zonal BOA), there’s good news: K2 is introducing the new tech on their highest-end boots called the Cortex.

The paper S. Kaur et al., “An unmet actin requirement explains the mitotic inhibition of clathrin-mediated endocytosis,” eLife, 3:e00829, 2014. For decades, scientists observed clathrin-mediated ...
