Dying cells are typically expelled from epithelial sheets to prevent foreign substances and microorganisms from entering, but the mechanism underlying this process is unclear. A recent study has ...
New research led by the University of Bristol has found the protein p53 plays a key role in epithelial migration and tissue repair. The findings could improve our understanding of the processes used ...
A molecular signaling pathway once thought to maintain cell survival actually helps control epithelial cell shape and organization, US and German researchers show in two fruit fly studies published by ...
