They are most common on the T-zone of the face, especially on the nose. Alicia Zalka, MD, compares sebaceous filaments to ...
Caltech researchers demonstrated a new method to use light to control active matter—a kind of material made up of individual ...
Influenza A virus particles strategically adapt their shape—to become either spheres or larger filaments—to favor their ...
Myosin II plays the most important role in cellular force generation. Myosin II molecules self-assemble into filaments with different structures depending on myosin II isoforms and other conditions ...
Changes to the intermediate filament (IF) protein, vimentin, were found to promote tumor growth by increasing cancer stemness in an oestrogen independent manner.
