They created a transgenic mouse in which the level of p27 Kip1 could be reduced in the inner ear and the retina to see how that would impact the proliferation of progenitor cells in response in ...

The mouse grew to have physical characteristics ... De Mendoza suggested maybe they used it to regulate basic functions, such as cell proliferation, but multicellular animals repurposed it to ...

Cells are the smallest units of life. But even within the same tissue or organ, they are not all identical. New variations arise continuously during cell proliferation. While genetic mutations alter ...

Cellular senescence is a normal process that helps prevent abnormal cell proliferation, but it can also occur in response to stress. Senescent cells stop dividing and typically secrete pro ...

"An exciting finding was when we tried to treat the obese mice with colon inflammation by lowering their inflammation, it actually stopped the ERK pathway in the liver from activating," explains Imai.
