The cell must also pass through a series of checkpoints that ensure conditions are favorable for division. In order to move from one phase of its life cycle to the next, a cell must pass through ...

A new method can capture detailed information about all four phases of the cell cycle in real time using fluorescent proteins ... to pin down the mechanisms that controlled this complex life process. ...

Biomedical engineering researchers developed a new cell classifier ... at the life cycle of neuroepithelial stem cells, which led to the discovery and exploration of a new resting phase called ...

The cells are also found in an immature state in the blood. During certain stages of development, dendritic cells develop branched projections called “dendrites,” which is why they are so named.

In the first, the mats were allowed to reproduce via a two-phase life cycle in which mats gave rise to mat offspring via cheater cells that functioned as a kind of germ line. In the second ...

"The cell cycle is such a well-studied thing and yet here we are looking at it again for the umpteenth time and a new phase pops out at us," Plaisier says. "Biology always has new insights to show ...
