Balancing cell growth and death [PDF]
Life within a cell, a tissue, or an organism requires a delicate balance between the promotion and inhibition of growth. Subcellular structures expand and contract in concert with cell cycle progression and environmental conditions, while tissue homeostasis requires the coordination of these processes in populations of cells along with the ability to ...

Aneuploidy: Cells Losing Their Balance [PDF]
AbstractA change in chromosome number that is not the exact multiple of the haploid karyotype is known as aneuploidy. This condition interferes with growth and development of an organism and is a common characteristic of solid tumors. Here, we review the history of studies on aneuploidy and summarize some of its major characteristics.

Glial cells and energy balance [PDF]
The search for new strategies and drugs to abate the current obesity epidemic has led to the intensification of research aimed at understanding the neuroendocrine control of appetite and energy expenditure. This intensified investigation of metabolic control has also included the study of how glial cells participate in this process.

Balancing the decision of cell proliferation and cell fate [PDF]
The control of cellular proliferation is key in the proper development of a complex organism, the maintenance of tissue homeostasis and the ability to respond to various hormonal and other inducers. Key in the control of proliferation is the retinoblastoma (Rb) protein which regulates the activity of a family of transcription factors known as E2Fs. The

Cell death mechanisms: life in the balance [PDF]
This report summarizes a 1-day meeting on Cell Death Mechanisms organized by the European Tissue Culture Society (UK branch) held at University of Bristol on 23 April 2008. The meeting brought together scientists interested in mechanisms of neuronal and glial survival and degeneration with those interested in reactivating or mimicking cell death ...

Dendritic cells in energy balance regulation
Besides their well-known role in initiating adaptive immune responses, several groups have studied the role of dendritic cells (DCs) in the context of chronic metabolic inflammation, such as in diet-induced obesity (DIO) or metabolic-associated fatty liver disease.

Checks and Balances in Bacterial Cell Division [PDF]
Assembly of the division machinery in Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria occurs in two time-dependent steps. First, the FtsZ proto-ring localizes at midcell including some FtsN molecules.
