The electric skin cell signals, which move at glacial pace compared to those in nerve cells, may play a role in initiating healing.

It has long been thought that only nerve and heart cells use electric impulses to communicate, while epithelial cells — which ...

Scientists discover "electric spiking" communication in previously thought to be mute cells, paving the way for bioelectric ...

Accurate molecular analysis of tumors and their precursor lesions requires the extraction of specific subpopulations of cells (normal, preneoplastic and tumor) from a composite background of ...

Acquisition of invasive and metastatic capabilities is frequently associated with loss of cell–cell adhesion. One of the major constituents of the cell-adhesion complex in epithelial cells is E ...

HDAC6 is upregulated in corneal diseases and causes ENKD1 deacetylation at lysine 98. Deacetylation of ENKD1 blocks its ...

It has long been thought that only nerve and heart cells use electric impulses to communicate, while epithelial cells — which compose the linings of our skin, organs and body cavities — are mute, ...

Yu, a cell-culture expert, grew a single layer of human epithelial cells on the chip, which detected minute electric shifts.
