The awe-inspiring process of cell division can turn a fertilized egg into a baby – or a cancerous cell into a malignant tumor. With so much at stake, nature keeps it tightly controlled in a process ...

The induction of the cell cycle in cardiomyocytes involves the activation of specific genes that are responsible for regulating cell division and growth. Our laboratory has discovered several ...

Why do we need to understand the dynamics of the cell cycle? The cell cycle is a mechanism that controls and integrates the stages of DNA synthesis, mitosis, and cell division. This mechanism dictates ...

A new method can capture detailed information about all four phases of the cell cycle in real time using fluorescent proteins. Michael Lin was always curious about cell biology, but he became ...

Cancer is a significant cause of death worldwide and many efforts have been devoted to the development of methods for early detection. Telomerase are considered as a tumor biomarker for early ...

Post-mitotic neurons in the brain that re-enter the cell cycle quickly succumb to senescence, and this re-entry is more common in Alzheimer's disease, according to a new study. The phenomenon may ...

Summary image of the article. The upper part highlights neuronal cell cycle re-engagement is a stage proceeding neuronal senescence and that their full molecular profiles can now be identified by the ...
