Proper regulation of these rates is essential to tissue maintenance and repair. The spatial organization of the cells that form a tissue is also central to the tissue's function and survival.

When we think of death, we imagine a final, irreversible end. But what if death is not as absolute as it seems? What if some ...

In order to communicate and transfer cellular cargo, cells within tissues can link together by fusing their cytoskeletons ...

Scientists identify mutation patterns in healthy stomach lining, offering new insights into the earliest steps of cancer ...

Tight junctions form a seal between cells that is so strong that not even ions can pass across it. Gap junctions are involved in cellular communication — not just in epithelial tissue ...
