NaNog: A pluripotency homeobox (master) molecule. [PDF]
, 2015 One of the most intriguing aspects of cell biology is the state of pluripotency, where the cell is capable of self-renewal for as many times as deemed necessary , then at a specified time can differentiate into any type of cell. This fundamental process

The role of roof plate-specific spondins in liver homeostasis and disease
Liver Research, 2022 As evolutionarily conserved signals, roof plate-specific spondins (R-spondins; RSPOs) are a family with four members (RSPO1–4) exerting distinctly different functions.

The effects of different combinations and varying concentrations of growth regulators on the regeneration of selected Turkish cultivars of melon [PDF]
, 2013 Cucurbits are an economically important family of plants. The majority of the vegetable production in Turkey, for example, derives from the species beloning to the family Cucurbitaceae. Despite the importance of cucurbits among vegetable crops worldwide,

Rac1 drives intestinal stem cell proliferation and regeneration [PDF]
, 2013 Adult stem cells are responsible for maintaining the balance between cell proliferation and differentiation within self-renewing tissues. The molecular and cellular mechanisms mediating such balance are poorly understood.

Organismic Supercategories and Qualitative Dynamics of Systems [PDF]
, 1971 The representation of biological systems by means of organismic supercategories, developed in previous papers, is further discussed. The different approaches to relational biology, developed by Rashevsky, Rosen and by Baianu and Marinescu, are compared ...

Akt1-Inhibitor of DNA binding2 is essential for growth cone formation and axon growth and promotes central nervous system axon regeneration. [PDF]
, 2016 Mechanistic studies of axon growth during development are beneficial to the search for neuron-intrinsic regulators of axon regeneration. Here, we discovered that, in the developing neuron from rat, Akt signaling regulates axon growth and growth cone ...
