Cell envelope growth of Gram‐negative bacteria proceeds independently of cell wall synthesis [PDF]
, 2023 International audienceAbstract All bacterial cells must expand their envelopes during growth. The main load‐bearing and shape‐determining component of the bacterial envelope is the peptidoglycan cell wall.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Pediatric gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) are extremely rare and clinically heterogeneous. Management has largely been extrapolated from adult practice. This European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline (ESCP), developed by the EXPeRT network in collaboration with adult NEN experts, provides (adult) evidence ...

Nuclear shapes are geometrically determined by the excess surface area of the nuclear lamina
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023 Introduction: Nuclei have characteristic shapes dependent on cell type, which are critical for proper cell function, and nuclei lose their distinct shapes in multiple diseases including cancer, laminopathies, and progeria.

Getting Cells and Tissues into Shape [PDF]
Cell, 2011 Cells of all shapes and sizes are able to calculate the location of their middles in order to divide into two during mitosis. Minc et al. (2011) and Gibson et al. (2011) now show that simple mechanical models accurately predict cleavage-plane positioning, and that geometrical interactions between neighboring cells are sufficient to generate ordered ...

Shaping the Archaeal Cell Envelope [PDF]
Archaea, 2010 Although archaea have a similar cellular organization as other prokaryotes, the lipid composition of their membranes and their cell surface is unique. Here we discuss recent developments in our understanding of the archaeal protein secretion mechanisms, the assembly of macromolecular cell surface structures, and the release of S-layer-coated vesicles ...

Microtubules in 3D cell motility [PDF]
, 2017 Three-dimensional (3D) cell motility underlies essential processes, such as embryonic development, tissue repair and immune surveillance, and is involved in cancer progression. Although the cytoskeleton is a well-studied regulator of cell migration, most

Solid Pseudopapillary Neoplasm of the Pancreas in Children and Adolescents: Expert Recommendations
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Solid pseudopapillary neoplasm of the pancreas (SPN) is a rare low‐grade malignant exocrine pancreatic tumor, mostly discovered during the second decade of life in females, with a very good prognosis, provided microscopically complete surgical excision is achieved.
