Isomorphic cell division reveals a hidden code in tissue building
The journey started with an enigma in the zebrafish embryo: some endothelial cells, actively involved in the initial stages ...
Before a cell commits fully to the process of dividing itself into two new cells, it may ensure the appropriateness of its commitment by staying for many hours -- sometimes more than a day -- in a ...
For successful cell division, chromosomal DNA needs to be packed into compact rod-shaped structures. Defects in this process can lead to cell death or diseases like cancer. A new study has shown how ...
