Tap into the extraordinary tale of evolution in this cosmic clicker game! Once upon a time, over 4.5 billion years ago, there was no life in the Solar System. And then, almost in the blink of an ...
Dysfunctions of the tiny cell processes (primary cilia*) of the pancreatic beta cells could be a cause of type 2 diabetes.
Model used to create a cellular 'hologram' of a mouse embryo could be used to visualize development in any species.
For years, scientists have thought that TGF-Beta ... in our cells. "The field has historically focused on stabilizing these ...
with added imaging features enabling single cell image acquisitions and cell sorting based on phenotypes. We collaborated with the imaging facility at the University of York to access BD ...
This year’s first place went to Bruno Cisterna and Eric Vitriol for their image of tumor cells in the brain of a mouse, which highlighted disruptions in the cells’ cytoskeleton. The team’s ...
This year’s top prize went to Bruno Cisterna, who (assisted by Eric Vitriol) captured a detailed image of the structural framework of neuronal cells. Differentiated mouse brain tumor cells ...
Our perspective about glucose toxicity as it pertains to the pancreatic ß-cell is that the characteristic decreases in insulin synthesis and secretion are caused by decreased insulin gene expression.
They form synapse-like structures that pinch neighboring cells. Further analyses of the image data indicated that the primary cilia of the beta cells also interact with cells of the nervous tissue.
