Cell division is one of the most fundamental processes of life. From bacteria to blue whales, every living being on Earth relies on cell division for growth, reproduction, and species survival. Yet, ...

Cell division is fundamental to life, enabling growth, reproduction, and survival across all organisms, from single-celled bacteria to complex multicellular animals. While animals and fungi share a ...

Research shows how the curved shape of a zebrafish egg sets cell division timing, gene activation, and early cell fate ...

Images of human cells at different stages of mitosis. Chromosomes are colored cyan, spindle microtubules in red and spindle poles are yellow. Each day, hundreds of billions of cells in our body cycle ...

Researchers have found a molecular mechanism that prevents multiplication of potentially dangerous cells by measuring the duration of mitosis. They have shown that this mechanism -- the Mitotic ...

Researchers at the University of California San Diego (UCSD) have found that two of the most frequently administered stem cell therapies, which are often used interchangeably, actually contain ...

If you took high school biology, you probably learned about cell division: a crucial process in all life forms officially called mitosis. For over one hundred years, students have learned that during ...

Researchers often struggle to select which cells to utilize in their research and when to employ them. Cell lines, dissociated tumor cells, and primary cells all have their place in research. While ...

Scientists at ETH Zurich have broken new ground by generating over 400 types of nerve cells from stem cells in the lab, far surpassing previous efforts that produced only a few dozen. By ...
