    Time-lapse observation of cell alignment on nanogrooved patterns

    Feb 25, 2009 - Cells elongate on a surface with nanogrooved (NG) patterns and align along that pattern. Although various models have been proposed for how this occurs, much remains to be clarified. Studies with fixed cells do not lend themselves to answering some

    A critical role for thrombin in vertebrate lens regeneration

    May 29, 2004 - Lens regeneration in urodele amphibians such as the newt proceeds from the dorsal margin of the iris where pigment epithelial cells (PEC) re–enter the cell cycle and transdifferentiate into lens. A general problem in regeneration research is to

    Remaking ourselves

    Stem cells can be used to create embryo-like structures that may or may not develop as normal embryos do, and artificial brain-like organs grown in dishes raise questions about

    Bio-electrospraying the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans: studying whole-genome transcriptional responses and key life…

    Apr 6, 2010 - Bio-electrospray, the direct jet-based cell handling approach, is able to handle a wide range of cells (spanning immortalized, primary to stem cells). Studies at the genomic, genetic and the physiological levels have shown that,…

    Novel nanocomposite biomaterials with controlled copper/calcium release capability for bone tissue engineering…

    Sep 6, 2015 - This work aimed to develop novel composite biomaterials for bone tissue engineering (BTE) made of bioactive glass nanoparticles (Nbg) and alginate cross-linked with Cu2+ or Ca2+ (AlgNbgCu, AlgNbgCa, respectively). Two-dimensional scaffolds were

    The site of termination of afferent fibres in the caudate nucleus

    Sep 30, 1971 - An electron microscopic study has been made of the axon terminal degeneration in the caudate nucleus in the cat after lesions in either the cerebral cortex, the thalamus, the cerebral cortex and the thalamus, the midbrain or within the caudate

    Theoretical biology in the third millennium

    Dec 29, 1999 - During the 20th century our understanding of genetics and the processes of gene expression have undergone revolutionary change. Improved technology has identified the components of the living cell, and knowledge of the genetic code allows us to

    Growth control mechanisms in normal and transformed intestinal cells

    Jun 29, 1998 - The cells populating the intestinal crypts are part of a dynamic tissue system which involves the self–renewal of stem cells, a commitment to proliferation, lineage–specific differentiation, movement and cell death. Our knowledge…
