Macropinocytosis: Biology and mechanisms
Cells & Development, 2021Macropinocytosis is a form of endocytosis performed by ruffles and cups of the plasma membrane. These close to entrap droplets of medium into micron-sized vesicles, which are trafficked through the endocytic system, their contents digested and useful products absorbed.

Molecular Mechanisms of Pollination Biology
Annual Review of Plant Biology, 2020Pollination is the transfer of pollen grains from the stamens to the stigma, an essential requirement of sexual reproduction in flowering plants. Cross-pollination increases genetic diversity and is favored by selection in the majority of situations. Flowering plants have evolved a wide variety of traits that influence pollination success, including ...

Soft Statistical Mechanics for Biology
2022The multilevel organization of nature is self-evident: proteins do interact among them to give rise to an organized metabolism and the same hierarchical organization is in action for gene expression, tissue and organ architectures, and ecological systems.The still more common approach to such state of affairs is to think that causally relevant events ...

Mechanical regulation of oligodendrocyte biology
Neuroscience Letters, 2020Oligodendrocytes (OL) are a subset of glial cells in the central nervous system (CNS) comprising the brain and spinal cord. The CNS environment is defined by complex biochemical and biophysical cues during development and response to injury or disease.

2-Methoxyestradiol—Biology and mechanism of action
Steroids, 2010In the last decade the endogenous estradiol metabolite, 2-methoxyestradiol (2ME), has gained more and more interest due to its marked anticancerogenic properties and possible cardiovascular benefits, as shown in numerous animal and experimental investigations.

Synthetic Biology: A Challenge to Mechanical Explanations in Biology?
Perspectives in Biology and Medicine, 2012In their plans to modify organisms, synthetic biologists have contrasted engineering and tinkering. By drawing this contrast between their endeavors and what has happened during the evolution of organisms by natural selection, they underline the novelty of their projects and justify their ambitions.

Molecular quantum mechanics in biology
Quarterly Reviews of Biophysics, 1969Among the different fields of natural sciences, physics is concerned with the most basic properties of matter. It is possible to define the necessary physical concepts in a rather unique way and carry out experiments under well-controlled conditions. The interpretation of experiments is therefore comparatively easy.
