BACKGROUND: According to the cancer stem cell hypothesis, tumor growth is sustained by a subpopulation of cancer stem/progenitor-like cells. Self-renewal and high clonogenic potential are characteristics shared by normal stem and neoplastic ... Read more...
Disruption of the axon initial segment cytoskeleton is a new mechanism for neuronal injury.
19 Oct 2009 Many factors contribute to nervous system dysfunction and failure to regenerate after injury or disease. Here, we describe a previously unrecognized mechanism for nervous system injury. We show that neuronal injury causes rapid, irreversible, and ... Read more...
Origin and evolution of the Notch signalling pathway: an overview from eukaryotic genomes.
11 Oct 2009 BACKGROUND: Of the 20 or so signal transduction pathways that orchestrate cell-cell interactions in metazoans, seven are involved during development. One of these is the Notch signalling pathway which regulates cellular identity, proliferation, ... Read more...
