Although eosinophils were described more than a century ago, recent studies have shown that their functions extend far beyond their role as effector cells in the course of parasitic infection or in ...

p63 is essential for a proper development of epithelia. Mutations within the C-terminal domains of p63 are associated with severe skin disorders like AEC syndrome. Yet, the in vivo function of the p63 ...

Epithelial tissues are in constant interaction with their environment. Maintaining their functionality requires dynamic balance (homeostasis) and that their cell numbers are tightly regulated. This is ...

During embryonic development and wound healing, epithelial cells usually display in-plane polarity over large spatial scales and move coherently. However, most in vitro studies have examined the fluid ...

A distinct signaling pathway called TNF- drives the transformation of epithelial cells into aggressive tumor cells. During cancer progression, cells activate their own TNF- program and become invasive ...

A distinct signaling pathway called TNF-α drives the transformation of epithelial cells into aggressive tumor cells. During cancer progression, cells activate their own TNF-α program and become ...

Side section of the skin with epidermal stem cells (green) with one particular clone in red. Cell nuclei are stained in blue, the white dashed lines indicate hair follicles. How does a normal cell in ...
