Plants, 2021 Bryophytes are widely used to monitor air quality. Due to the lack of a cuticle, their cells can be compared to the roots of crop plants. This study aimed to test a hypothetical relation between metal tolerance and cell shape in biomonitoring mosses ...

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1997 Cell death, a scheduled event during development and tissue turnover, or the ultimate consequence of toxic or pathologic insults seems to involve a relatively limited number of execution pathways. This reflects the evolution of an organized sequence of events perhaps converging onto final common pathways that are used to dispose of unwanted or injured ...

Compressive stress drives adhesion-dependent unjamming transitions in breast cancer cell migration
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022 Cellular unjamming is the collective fluidization of cell motion and has been linked to many biological processes, including development, wound repair, and tumor growth.

Structural Determinants and Their Role in Cyanobacterial Morphogenesis
Life, 2020 Cells have to erect and sustain an organized and dynamically adaptable structure for an efficient mode of operation that allows drastic morphological changes during cell growth and cell division.

Cell Cycle, 2016 Shapes of the cell have fascinated our curiosity since the discovery of the cell by Robert Hooke in 16651 and by Anton van Leeuwenhoek slightly later2 using the state-of-the-art microscopes of the ...

Growth Phase Dependent Cell Shape of Haloarcula
Microorganisms, 2021 Several haloarchaea are reported to be pleomorphic, while others exhibit remarkable shapes, such as squares. Recently, Haloferax volcanii was found to alter its morphology during growth.

Mechano-chemical regulation of complex cell shape formation: Epidermal pavement cells—A case study
Quantitative Plant Biology, 2023 All plant cells are encased by walls, which provide structural support and control their morphology. How plant cells regulate the deposition of the wall to generate complex shapes is a topic of ongoing research.

Metabolism Shapes the Cell [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 2017 ABSTRACT More than 5 decades of work support the idea that cell envelope synthesis, including the inward growth of cell division, is tightly coordinated with DNA replication and protein synthesis through central metabolism. Remarkably, no unifying model exists to account for how these fundamentally disparate processes are functionally coupled.

Red cell shape in hypothyroidism. [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Pathology, 1969 Abstract Irregularly contracted red blood-cells are present in small numbers in the blood-films of about two-thirds of patients with untreated hypothyroidism, and this has been found to be of diagnostic value. The abnormal red cells slowly disappear with treatment of the subthyroid state.

Mesothelial Cells Exhibit Characteristics of Perivascular Cells in an In Vitro Angiogenesis Assay
Cells, 2023 Mesothelial cells have been shown to have remarkable plasticity towards mesenchymal cell types during development and in disease situations. Here, we have characterized the potential of mesothelial cells to undergo changes toward perivascular cells using
