Molecular Systems Biology, 2018 Cell size, cell growth, and cell cycle events are necessarily intertwined to achieve robust bacterial replication. Yet, a comprehensive and integrated view of these fundamental processes is lacking. Here, we describe an image‐based quantitative screen of

Cell Shape and Cell Lineage Conversion
The Journal of Poultry Science, 2015 The organization of animal cells in vivo can be categorized as being either epithelial or mesenchymal. Inter-conversions between these two states, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and mesenchymal-epithelial transition (MET), often represent key ...

A mechano-osmotic feedback couples cell volume to the rate of cell deformation
eLife, 2022 Mechanics has been a central focus of physical biology in the past decade. In comparison, how cells manage their size is less understood. Here, we show that a parameter central to both the physics and the physiology of the cell, its volume, depends on a ...

Decoding Information in Cell Shape [PDF]
Cell, 2013 Shape is an indicator of cell health. But how is the information in shape decoded? We hypothesize that decoding occurs by modulation of signaling through changes in plasma membrane curvature. Using analytical approaches and numerical simulations, we studied how elongation of cell shape affects plasma membrane signaling.

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Patients with ovarian cancer often present with massive ascites, leading to significant protein loss during surgical procedures. Although cell‐free concentrated ascites reinfusion therapy (CART) is used in palliative settings to mitigate protein loss, its application in intraoperative settings remains unexplored.

eLifeMaintenance of rod-shape in bacterial cells depends on the actin-like protein MreB. Deletion of mreB from Pseudomonas fluorescens SBW25 results in viable spherical cells of variable volume and reduced fitness.

mSystems, 2021 How cells control their shape and size is a fundamental question of biology. In most bacteria, cell shape is imposed by the peptidoglycan (PG) polymeric meshwork that surrounds the cell.

Cytokinesis: Robust cell shape regulation [PDF]
Seminars in Cell & Developmental Biology, 2016 Cytokinesis, the final step of cell division, is a great example of robust cell shape regulation. A wide variety of cells ranging from the unicellular Dictyostelium to human cells in tissues proceed through highly similar, stereotypical cell shape changes during cell division.

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is a common complication in patients receiving maintenance dialysis, driven by calcium and phosphate metabolism disturbances. Calcimimetics are central to the management of SHPT by enhancing calcium‐sensing receptor sensitivity and reducing parathyroid hormone secretion.

Royal Society Open Science, 2023 Small erythrocytes might be beneficial for blood rheology, as they contribute less to blood viscosity than large erythrocytes. We predicted that rheological disadvantages of larger erythrocytes could be alleviated by relatively smaller nucleus size in ...
