This study presents valuable findings implicating Xkr and its newly identified binding partners in regulating the exposure of apoptotic signal for phagocytosis, suggesting that Xkr might facilitate ...

"Our results demonstrate that the microalga Guillardia theta experiences apoptotic cell death in physiological conditions, similar to animal cells. Since these algae already existed prior to the ...

Apoptosis, or programmed cell death, is a tightly regulated biological process necessary for normal tissue maintenance and development. However, aberrations in apoptotic signaling networks are ...

Researchers have shed new light on how tissues in the body are repaired following the damage and premature death of tissue cells. As our bodies grow and develop, cells naturally die off where they are ...

A protein which sticks cells and tissues together has been found to have a surprising second job: helping cells which are ...
