During mitosis, phosphorylation of spindle associated proteins is a key regulatory mechanism for spindle formation, mitotic progression, and cytokinesis. In the recent past, mass spectrometry has been ...

Some reproductive parameters of adult stages of Amblyomma cajennense ticks were studied. The capacity of virgin females to reproduce by parthenogenesis was evaluated, during an experimental ...

Abstract: To diagnose breast cancer (BCa), the number of mitotic cells present in tissue sections is an important parameter to examine and grade breast biopsy specimen. The differentiation of mitotic ...

Markers of cell cycle progression based on DNA content cannot distinguish between mitotic cardiomyocytes that fail to complete cytokinesis from those cells that undergo true cell division. With the ...

In rare cases, female snakes can reproduce on their own through a process called parthenogenesis. This means they can produce offspring without mating, and the young are exact genetic copies of ...

The most common forms of asexual reproduction include parthenogenesis (development of an unfertilized egg), budding (where an offspring grows from the body of the parent), and fragmentation (where a ...

Researchers at the University of Texas at Arlington and research institutes in China and Myanmar studied flowerpot snakes to see how parthenogenesis works in these reptiles. (Alexander Murray ...
