Other signaling molecules must move much farther ... In fact, there are hundreds of receptor types found in cells, and varying cell types have different populations of receptors.

Because of cell signaling, tissues have the ability to carry out tasks no single cell could accomplish on its own. Different types of tissues, such as bone, brain, and the lining of the gut ...

A new study shows how an anticancer drug triggers an 'outside in' signal that gets it sucked into a cancer cell. The work reveals a new signaling mechanism that could be exploited for delivering other ...

Scientists have discovered that neural stem cells (NSCs) receive constant feedback from their daughter cells, influencing whether they remain dormant or activate to form new neurons and glia.

the same type of channels used by animal neurons and muscle cells. "This evidence of how information flows between cells in choanoflagellate colonies demonstrates cell-cell signaling at the cusp ...

In patients with RCC, exceptional response to immunotherapy may be related to clonal neoantigen-driven cytotoxic T-cell ...
