Apoptosis propagates through the cytoplasm as trigger waves
Visualizing a traveling wave of cell death When diffusion is too slow for communication over long distances, cells can use waves of chemical activity. By using fluorescent probes and microscopy, Cheng and Ferrell show that in frog eggs (which are very ...

Pre-implantation mouse embryos cultured In vitro under different oxygen concentrations show altered ultrastructures [PDF]
Assisted Reproductive Technologies routinely utilize different culture media and oxygen (O2) concentrations to culture human embryos. Overall, embryos cultured under physiological O2 tension (5%) have improved development compared to embryos cultured ...

Parathyroid Adenoma Completely Impacted within the Thyroid Gland: A Case Report [PDF]
Ectopic parathyroid adenoma can be seen in various locations. Sometimes ultrasound and even fine needle aspiration studies cannot distinguish this lesion from thyroid lesions. A 29-year-old woman with a prominent nodule of left thyroid lobe was referred

Mad2, Bub3, and Mps1 regulate chromosome segregation and mitotic synchrony in Giardia intestinalis, a binucleate protist lacking an anaphase-promoting complex. [PDF]
The binucleate pathogen Giardia intestinalis is a highly divergent eukaryote with a semiopen mitosis, lacking an anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) and many of the mitotic checkpoint complex (MCC) proteins.

Shedding of host autophagic proteins from the parasitophorous vacuolar membrane of Plasmodium berghei [PDF]
The hepatic stage of the malaria parasite Plasmodium is accompanied by an autophagy-mediated host response directly targeting the parasitophorous vacuolar membrane (PVM) harbouring the parasite.

Lariat intronic RNAs in the cytoplasm of vertebrate cells
Significance Introns are noncoding DNA sequences interspersed among the coding sequences of genes. Shortly after transcription, the intronic sequences are spliced out of the primary RNA transcript as lariat RNAs (circular molecules with a short tail ...

Superdiffusion dominates intracellular particle motion in the supercrowded cytoplasm of pathogenic Acanthamoeba castellanii [PDF]
Acanthamoebae are free-living protists and human pathogens, whose cellular functions and pathogenicity strongly depend on the transport of intracellular vesicles and granules through the cytosol.
