The new research reveals a novel mechanism for signal transmission in brain cells and helps answer an open question in neuroscience about how intracellular signals travel over long distances in ...

New research reveals that brain cells use a muscle-like signaling mechanism to relay information over long distances.

Developed by Northwestern Engineering’s Igor Efimov and George Washington University’s Luyao Lu, the implantable device uses ...

Cell signalling is the mechanism by which stimuli are transmitted via a signalling cascade to effector molecules that orchestrate the appropriate response. Types of cell signalling pathways ...

Skimmed milk has a little more calcium than semi-skimmed, which in turn has a little more calcium than whole milk. The reason is simply that as the fat is removed, the watery proportion of the ...

One important macronutrient for plants is calcium, which plays a significant role in the early signaling pathways that govern plant-biotic interactions. Plants produce a calcium signature in response ...

Lyn initiates signaling cascades following B cell receptor (BCR) cross-linking. Stimulation of the BCR leads to the activation [green (P)] of Lyn and Syk which results in Igα/β phosphorylation. PLCγ2 ...
