Researchers from the University of Illinois have discovered a key factor responsible for facilitating signal transduction in Cys-loop receptors, providing insight into a longstanding question in the ...

Signal transduction The cellular process that converts a signal, such as a hormone, growth factor, neurotransmitter, cytokine, mechanical force, or environmental cue, into biochemical changes inside ...

Cell migration is orchestrated by signal transduction networks that translate extracellular cues into coordinated intracellular responses. Directed migration depends on the establishment of front–back ...

A research team led by Dr. Tetsuya Muramoto from the Faculty of Science at Toho University has demonstrated the mechanisms by which periodic chemical signal frequencies in cells regulate gene ...

Researchers at the University of Bayreuth and Forschungszentrum Jülich have demonstrated that specific light-sensitive enzymes—so-called sensor histidine kinases (SHKs)—transmit their signal through a ...

Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) line the walls of blood vessels and govern vascular tone, blood pressure and vessel remodelling through complex signal transduction pathways. Extracellular stimuli ...

A research team led by Prof. Hyosang Lee of the Department of Brain Sciences at DGIST has identified TWIK-1, a type of ...

A new cancer drug may be able to inhibit both tumor growth and the spread of aggressive prostate cancer. This is shown in a ...
