    Charles Philippe Leblond. 5 February 1910 — 10 April 2007

    Dec 12, 2008 - In the modern world of cell biology, it is understood that virtually all cells in the body continuously synthesize a multitude ofproteins, and the pathways of synthesis and secretion of these proteins are well established. The continuous turnover of

    The Leeuwenhoek Lecture, 1985 - A molecular biologist’s view of viral hepatitis

    Mar 23, 1987 - Three forms of viral hepatitis can be distinguished serologically. Hepatitis A virus is a picornavirus, which is being studied increasingly after its propagation in cell cultures. The B virus (HBV) is the prototype of a family now termed hepadna

    Spindle orientation and epidermal morphogenesis

    Nov 5, 2013 - Asymmetric cell divisions (ACDs) result in two unequal daughter cells and are a hallmark of stem cells. ACDs can be achieved either by asymmetric partitioning of proteins and organelles or by asymmetric cell fate…

    Information processing by endoplasmic reticulum stress sensors

    Sep 27, 2019 - The unfolded protein response (UPR) is a collection of cellular feedback mechanisms that seek to maintain protein folding homeostasis in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). When the ER is ‘stressed’, through either high protein folding demand or

    Natural polymers for the microencapsulation of cells

    Nov 6, 2014 - The encapsulation of living mammalian cells within a semi-permeable hydrogel matrix is an attractive procedure for many biomedical and biotechnological applications, such as xenotransplantation, maintenance of stem cell phenotype and bioprinting of

    Paradoxical aortic stiffening and subsequent cardiac dysfunction in Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome

    May 27, 2020 - Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is an ultra-rare disorder with devastating sequelae resulting in early death, presently thought to stem primarily from cardiovascular events. We analyse novel longitudinal cardiovascular data from a

    Towards elucidating the connection between epithelial–mesenchymal transitions and stemness

    Dec 6, 2014 - Epithelial cells undergoing epithelial-to-mesenchymal transitions have often been shown to behave as cancer stem cells, but the precise molecular connection remains elusive. At the genetic level, stemness is governed by LIN28/let-7 double inhibition
