PI3K-C2 alpha Knockdown Results in Rerouting of Insulin Signaling and Pancreatic Beta Cell Proliferation [PDF]
Insulin resistance is a syndrome that affects multiple insulin target tissues, each having different biological functions regulated by insulin. A remaining question is to mechanistically explain how an insulin target cell/tissue can be insulin resistant ...

Cell Structures in Heterologous Anti-Rabies Immunoglobulin Production
This paper reviews basic modern trends in obtainment of anti-rabies immunoglobulin with enhanced properties. One of these trends is associated with the substitution of organ-tissue antigen by cultural antigen at the stage of producer immunization ...

On the mechanical interplay between intra- and inter-synchronization during collective cell migration : a numerical investigation [PDF]
Collective cell migration is a fundamental process that takes place during several biological phenomena such as embryogenesis, immunity response, and tumorogenesis, but the mechanisms that regulate it are still unclear.

Confined-microtubule assembly shapes three-dimensional cell wall structures in xylem vessels
Properly patterned deposition of cell wall polymers is prerequisite for the morphogenesis of plant cells. A cortical microtubule array guides the two-dimensional pattern of cell wall deposition.

Two homologous Agr-like quorum-sensing systems cooperatively control adherence, cell morphology, and cell viability properties in Lactobacillus plantarum WCFS1 [PDF]
A two-component regulatory system of Lactobacillus plantarum, encoded by genes designated lamK and lamR (hpk10 and rrp10), was studied. The lamK and lamR genes encode proteins which are highly homologous to the quorum-sensing histidine kinase LamC and ...

MAP4K4 inhibition promotes survival of human stem cell derived cardiomyocyte and reduces infarct size in vivo [PDF]
Heart disease is a paramount cause of global death and disability. Although cardiomyocyte death plays a causal role and its suppression would be logical, no clinical counter-measures target the responsible intracellular pathways. Therapeutic progress has
