Cell adhesion mechanisms underpin the capacity of tumour cells to interact with their surrounding microenvironment, influencing initiation, local invasion and metastatic dissemination. Adhesion ...

Scientists at the University of Osaka have developed a novel hydrogel that enables the efficient, three-dimensional (3D) culture of human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). By creating a unique ...

Cell-cell adhesion-induced patterning in keratinocytes can be explained by just starvation and strong adhesion, Hokkaido University researchers find. Fingerprints are one of the best-recognised ...

An IBEC-led study has revealed how mesenchymal stem cells respond to the viscosity of their environment, a key aspect in their differentiation process. The findings, published in Nature Communications ...
