Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have characterized how cellular senescence—a biological process in ...

The awe-inspiring process of cell division can turn a fertilized egg into a baby – or a cancerous cell into a malignant tumor. With so much at stake, nature keeps it tightly controlled in a process ...

The review emphasizes how breakthroughs in understanding the molecular mechanisms of cell cycle regulation have paved the way for the development of targeted anti-cancer agents. Notably, inhibitors of ...

MIT researchers discovered that the genome’s 3D structure doesn’t vanish during cell division as previously thought. Instead, tiny loops called microcompartments remain (and even strengthen) while ...
