Thermodynamics and thermoeconomics of cell division in presence of exogenous materials in nucleus [PDF]
Cell division is an essential biological process, and regulation of cell division is of relevance for many important fields of biology and medicine. Introducing exogenous substances, such as nanoparticles, into the nucleus, has been experimentally studied to regulate the division of cells.

Autocrine signaling and quorum sensing: Extreme ends of a common spectrum [PDF]
"Secrete-and-sense cells" can communicate by secreting a signaling molecule while also producing a receptor that detects the molecule. The cell can potentially "talk" to itself ("self-communication") or talk to neighboring cells with the same receptor ("neighbor-communication").

The cell biology of asthma [PDF]
The clinical manifestations of asthma are caused by obstruction of the conducting airways of the lung. Two airway cell types are critical for asthma pathogenesis: epithelial cells and smooth muscle cells. Airway epithelial cells, which are the first line of defense against inhaled pathogens and particles, initiate airway inflammation and produce mucus,

FoxO1 signaling in B cell malignancies and its therapeutic targeting
FoxO1 has context‐specific tumor suppressor or oncogenic character in myeloid and B cell malignancies. This includes tumor‐promoting properties such as stemness maintenance and DNA damage tolerance in acute leukemias, or regulation of cell proliferation and survival, or migration in mature B cell malignancies.

Stem cells and the origin of gliomas: A historical reappraisal with molecular advancements. [PDF]
The biology of both normal and tumor development clearly possesses overlapping and parallel features. Oncogenes and tumor suppressors are relevant not only in tumor biology, but also in physiological developmental regulators of growth and differentiation.

mRNA splicing is modulated by intronic microRNAs
Summary: Splicing of transcripts is catalyzed by the spliceosome, a mega-complex consisting of hundreds of proteins and five snRNAs, which employs direct interactions. When U1 snRNA forms high-affinity binding, namely more than eight base pairs, with the

The cell biology of taste [PDF]
Taste buds are aggregates of 50–100 polarized neuroepithelial cells that detect nutrients and other compounds. Combined analyses of gene expression and cellular function reveal an elegant cellular organization within the taste bud. This review discusses the functional classes of taste cells, their cell biology, and current thinking on how taste ...

Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) affects nearly one‐third of the global population and poses a significant risk of progression to cirrhosis or liver cancer. Here, we discuss the roles of hepatic dendritic cell subtypes in MASLD, highlighting their distinct contributions to disease initiation and progression, and their ...

Ligand recognition by 14‐3‐3 proteins requires negative charges but not necessarily phosphorylation
Interactions of 14‐3‐3 proteins with their binding partners are attributed to phosphorylation of the binding partners. In this work, we show that at least one negative charge is required for the peptides to bind 14‐3‐3ε, although phosphorylation is not necessary, and that two negative charges are preferable for high affinity binding.
