Tipping microtubule dynamics, one protofilament at a time [PDF]
Microtubules are polymeric tubes that switch between phases of growth and shortening, and this property is essential to drive key cellular processes.

While obesity causes male infertility through testicular lipid stress, the mechanisms by which this stress alters Sertoli cell-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) to induce paternal reproductive defects and offspring metabolic dysfunction remain unclear.

The cell biology of vision [PDF]
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 ...

Cellulaire dynamica – beweging van begin tot het eind [PDF]
De bouwstenen van het leven zijn ons door grote recente ontwikkelingen in de biologie bekend geworden. We kennen de volledige sequentie van ons genoom en krijgen een steeds beter overzicht van de moleculen waaruit onze cellen zijn opgebouwd.

Cell biology perspectives in phage biology
Cellular biology has long been restricted to large cellular organisms. However, as the resolution of microscopic methods increased, it became possible to study smaller cells, in particular bacterial cells. Bacteriophage biology is one aspect of bacterial cell biology that has recently gained insight from cell biology.

The Cell Biology of APOL1 [PDF]
The association of variants in the APOL1 gene, which encodes apolipoprotein L1 (APOL1), with progressive nondiabetic kidney diseases in African Americans has prompted intense investigation into the function(s) of APOL1. APOL1 is an innate immune effector that protects human beings from infection by some trypanosomal parasites.

Masters of the tips: End Binding proteins orchestrate microtubule plus- and minus-end dynamics [PDF]
Microtubules are dynamic polymers built of dimers of α- and β-tubulin, which attach to each other in a head-to-tail fashion. Microtubules can rapidly switch between phases of growth and shortening, a behavior known as “dynamic instability”.

Exploring cytoskeletal diversity in neurons [PDF]
Often in biology, form follows function. For example, the ability of neurons to receive, process, and transmit information depends on their polarized organization into axons and dendrites.
