Generating heterokaryotic cells via bacterial cell-cell fusion [PDF]
Microbiology Spectrum, 2021 Cell-cell fusion is fundamentally important for tissue repair, virus transmission, and genetic recombination, among other functions. Fusion has been mainly studied in eukaryotic cells and lipid vesicles, while cell-cell fusion in bacteria is less well characterized, due to the cell wall acting as a fusion-limiting barrier.

Engineering cell–cell signaling [PDF]
Current Opinion in Biotechnology, 2013 Juxtacrine cell-cell signaling mediated by the direct interaction of adjoining mammalian cells is arguably the mode of cell communication that is most recalcitrant to engineering. Overcoming this challenge is crucial for progress in biomedical applications, such as tissue engineering, regenerative medicine, immune system engineering and therapeutic ...

Neurodegeneration cell per cell
Neuron, 2023 The clinical definition of neurodegenerative diseases is based on symptoms that reflect terminal damage of specific brain regions. This is misleading as it tells little about the initial disease processes. Circuitry failures that underlie the clinical symptomatology are themselves preceded by clinically mostly silent, slowly progressing multicellular ...

Memory NK cell features exploitable in anticancer immunotherapy [PDF]
, 2019 Besides their innate ability to rapidly produce effector cytokines and kill virus-infected or transformed cells, natural killer (NK) cells display a strong capability to adapt to environmental modifications and to differentiate into long-lived ...

Survey of Ophthalmology, 2007 A 64-year-old woman presented with bilateral optic nerve swelling, vitreous cells, and cerebrospinal fluid monocytic pleocytosis. A chest radiograph and computed tomography demonstrated a lesion in the left lung, which histologically was confirmed to be a small-cell lung carcinoma.

FEBS Letters, 2007 Cell–cell fusion is a highly regulated and dramatic cellular event that is required for development and homeostasis. Fusion may also play a role in the development of cancer and in tissue repair by stem cells. While virus–cell fusion and the fusion of intracellular membranes have been the subject of intense investigation during the past decade, cell ...

The RANK/RANKL/OPG system and tumor bone metastasis: Potential mechanisms and therapeutic strategies
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2022 With the markedly increased diagnosis and incidence of cancer in the population, tumor bone metastasis has become a frequent event in tumor patients. Healthy bone integrity is maintained by a delicate balance between bone formation and bone resorption ...

Controlling Synthetic Cell-Cell Communication [PDF]
Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2022 Synthetic cells, which mimic cellular function within a minimal compartment, are finding wide application, for instance in studying cellular communication and as delivery devices to living cells. However, to fully realise the potential of synthetic cells, control of their function is vital.
