The capillary basal lamina (BL) located between the endothelial cell, pericyte and perivascular astrocyte plays important roles in normal and diseased central nervous system (CNS). Using ...

A new study by scientists at the University of Iowa shows why muscle membranes don't rupture when healthy people exercise. The findings shed light on a mechanism that appears to protect cells from ...

Dying epithelial cells are thought to be squeezed out of the epithelium by the contraction of an actomyosin ring formed in live neighboring cells, which simultaneously closes any potential gap, ...

Functional recovery after repair of peripheral nerve injury in humans is often suboptimal. Over the past quarter of a century, there have been significant advances in human nerve repair, but most of ...

A new study shows why muscle membranes don't rupture when healthy people exercise. The findings shed light on a mechanism that appears to protect cells from mechanical stress. The study also helps ...
