Our skin and mucous membranes are protected by epithelial cells. This barrier tissue performs its function thanks to ...

Spectacular progress has been made in our understanding of the physical processes that underlie the functions and mechanisms of cytoskeletal proteins. For example, the atomic structures of actin ...

A number of spontaneous mutations in GFAP, encoding an astrocyte-specific intermediate filament protein ... and thereby have an impact on the cytoskeletal architecture and interactions.

A research team at Kumamoto University has developed a groundbreaking deep learning-based method for analyzing the ...

Our skin and mucous membranes protect us like vigilant sentinels against the onslaught of harmful pathogens. This extraordinary defense owes its strength to epithelial cells—specialized tissues woven ...

Who were our earliest ancestors? The answer could lie in a special group of single-celled organisms with a cytoskeleton ...

Cytoskeletal active matter describes novel synthetic materials made up of mixtures of cytoskeletal filaments and molecular motors. By consuming chemical fuel, the molecular motors can bind to and ...
