The cell biology of vision [PDF]
Journal of Cell Biology, 2010 Humans possess the remarkable ability to perceive color, shape, and motion, and to differentiate between light intensities varied by over nine orders of magnitude. Phototransduction—the process in which absorbed photons are converted into electrical responses—is the first stage of visual processing, and occurs in the outer segment, the light-sensing ...

The cell biology of regeneration [PDF]
Journal of Cell Biology, 2012 Regeneration of complex structures after injury requires dramatic changes in cellular behavior. Regenerating tissues initiate a program that includes diverse processes such as wound healing, cell death, dedifferentiation, and stem (or progenitor) cell proliferation; furthermore, newly regenerated tissues must integrate polarity and positional identity ...

Linking specification to differentiation:From proneural genes to the regulation of ciliogenesis [PDF]
, 2011 Much of developmental biology is concerned with the processes by which cells become committed to particular fates in a regulated fashion, whereas cell biology addresses, among other things, the variety of differentiated forms and functions that cells can

Myoneurin regulates BMP signaling by competing with Ppm1a for Smad binding
iScience, 2022 Summary: A delicate balance of BMP activity is critical for tissue formation and organogenesis. However, the mechanical molecular details in ensuring the proper duration and intensity of BMP signaling have yet to be fully elucidated.

Targeted gene silencing in human embryonic stem cells using cell-penetrating peptide PepFect 14
Stem Cell Research & Therapy, 2019 Background Human embryonic stem (hES) cells serve as an invaluable tool for research and future medicine, but their transfection often leads to unwanted side effects as the method itself may induce differentiation.

ASPM promotes homologous recombination-mediated DNA repair by safeguarding BRCA1 stability
iScience, 2021 Summary: DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair by homologous recombination (HR) is essential for ensuring genome stability. Abnormal spindle-like microcephaly-associated (ASPM) gene encodes a spindle protein that is commonly implicated in primary ...

A single-cell atlas of the myometrium in human parturition
JCI Insight, 2022 Parturition is a well-orchestrated process characterized by increased uterine contractility, cervical ripening, and activation of the chorioamniotic membranes; yet, the transition from a quiescent to a contractile myometrium heralds the onset of labor ...
