Epithelial cells line the body’s surfaces to protect against physical damage, pathogens, and dehydration. These cells play key roles in absorbing nutrients and removing waste products, as well as ...

In a new study published in Nature Communications titled, “The reference genome of the human diploid cell line RPE-1,” researchers from University of Rome La Sapienza have produced the first reference ...

Team from UMass Amherst uncovers communication by “electric spiking” in cells once thought to be mute, which could enable bioelectric applications “Epithelial cells do things that no one has ever ...

When a rhinovirus, the most frequent cause of the common cold, infects the lining of our nasal passages, our cells work ...

A rapid interferon response from nasal epithelial cells induces a cascade of responses during infection, from reduced viral ...

Results from a phase 1/2 clinical trial of a novel stem cell treatment for cornea injuries found 14 patients treated and tracked for 18 months had a more than 90% success rate at restoring the ...

MAPK signaling works like a molecular switchboard inside epithelial cells, turning outside stress into gene-level commands. IL-33 is an alarm signal cytokine that normally stays tucked inside airway ...
