A cell can act in astonishingly complex ways. It must decide for itself whether to grow and multiply, rest, specialize, age or die. This applies just as much to mammalian cells as it does to seemingly ...

A research team has conducted a study exploring the role of the mannose pathway in regulating cell fate decisions in low glucose environments. Their work may hold potential for novel therapeutic ...

The careful control of cell division is essential to organisms, and when it goes awry, major problems can arise like developmental defects or tumor growth. Cell division can have a major influence on ...

Sister cells are a pair of cells that share the same mother cell. In a new study published in Developmental Cell, researchers led by Université de Montréal (UdeM) professor Greg FitzHarris show how ...

Cancer is notoriously hard to treat. In part, this is because the cells making up a tumor are heterogeneous, expressing different genes and molecules that determine their response to treatment. Even ...
