Results and Discussion: The results have shown that nearly 80% of plasma membrane proteins were retained in the cell membrane vesicles after the isolation process, including key proteins to the ...

While highly migratory cells are capable of single cell migration, weakly migratory cells rely on cell-cell signaling with fibroblasts to escape the primary tumor. Weakly migratory cells release ...

Dermal fibroblasts were isolated from punch biopsies obtained from healthy subjects and dcSSc patients as previously described (11–13). Cells between passages 3 and 6 were maintained in RPMI ...

We have developed a fully synthetic lung surfactant preparation, based on designed analogues of surfactant proteins SP-B and SP-C, for treatment of respiratory distress syndrome in premature infants.

Researchers in Japan have given a plastic robot finger a layered coating made from actual, living skin cells. Next, they aim to add hair and sweat glands. In a developing chicken embryo, skin cells ...
