Cancer researchers at Children's Medical Research Institute have discovered an "unexpected mechanism" that our cells use to ...

Cell division is a precise process, but sometimes this process is impaired and diseases like cancer occur. Mitosis is one of the most important phases in the cell cycle. During this phase ...

Mitosis in baker's yeast can also tell us ... In particular, he was interested in "the cancer problem": Why are cancer cells unable to control themselves? What goes wrong during their life cycle?

It also touches on the implications of mitosis in healing and the potential consequences of its disruption, such as cancer or ...

Even cells experience peer pressure. Scientists have long studied the ins and outs of cancer cells to learn more about the ...

Pin1, a member of a new family of phosphorylation-specific peptidyl-prolyl isomerases (PPIases), regulates mitosis and neuronal cell ... mechanism by which Pin1 may contribute to cell proliferation in ...

Cells grow then divide by mitosis only when we need new ones - when we're growing or need to replace old or damaged cells. Cancer cells are undifferentiated - they do not carry out their normal ...

Whalen, PhD, poses a new explanation for how cancer-fighting drugs attack and destroy BRCA1 and BRCA2 tumor cells. Published in Nature Cancer, their work illustrates how a small DNA nick-a break ...

Cells grow then divide by mitosis only when we need new ones - when we're growing or need to replace old or damaged cells. Something that increases the likelihood of developing a disease is called ...
