Molecular mechanism of vimentin nuclear localization associated with the migration and invasion of daughter cells derived from polyploid giant cancer cells
BackgroundPolyploid giant cancer cells (PGCCs), a specific type of cancer stem cells (CSCs), can be induced by hypoxic microenvironments, chemical...

Subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation alleviates oxidative stress via mitophagy in Parkinson’s disease
Subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS) has the potential to delay Parkinson’s disease (PD) progression. Whether oxidative stress...

The plant-like protein phosphatase PPKL regulates parasite replication and morphology in Toxoplasma gondii
BackgroundThe protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii encodes dozens of phosphatases, among which a plant-like phosphatase absent from mammalian...

Phosphorylation of keratin 18 serine 52 regulates mother–daughter centriole engagement and microtubule nucleation by cell cycle-dependent accumulation at the centriole
Serine-52 (Ser52) is the major physiologic site of keratin 18 (K18) phosphorylation. Here, we report that serine-52 phosphorylated K18 (phospho-Ser52...

Indirect neurogenesis in space and time
During central nervous system (CNS) development, neural progenitor cells (NPCs) generate neurons and glia in two different ways. In direct...

Myosins in the Nucleus
Although originally characterized as a cytoplasmic protein, myosin of various classes also performs key functions in the nucleus. We review the data... -
Generation of Polyploid Giant Cancer Cells (PGCCs) from Hey Ovarian Cancer Cells and Analysis of Embryonic Properties
Polyploid giant cancer cells (PGCCs) play a fundamental role in tumor initiation, dormancy, drug resistance, and metastasis, although the detailed... -
Dynamic chromosome association with nuclear organelles in living cells
The development of progressively sophisticated tools complemented by the integration of live cell imaging enhances our understanding of the...

Role of syntaxin3 an apical polarity protein in poorly polarized keratinocytes: regulation of asymmetric barrier formations in the skin epidermis
The skin epidermis exhibits an asymmetric structure composed of multilayered keratinocytes and those in the outer layers form two-way physical...

Mesencephalon m1/m2
Two important structures of the visual/oculomotor system originate from this neuromere, the superior colliculus, and the oculomotor nucleus/nerve... -
Germ plasm and the origin of the primordial germ cells in the oriental river prawn Macrobrachium nipponense
Germ plasm is a special cytoplasmic component containing special RNAs and proteins, and is located in specific regions of oocytes and embryos. Only...

R-loop and diseases: the cell cycle matters
The cell cycle is a crucial biological process that is involved in cell growth, development, and reproduction. It can be divided into G1, S, G2, and...

Revisiting a Telencephalic Extent of the Ascending Reticular Activating System
Is the cerebrum involved in its own activation to states of attention or arousal? “Telencephalon” is a term borrowed from embryology to identify not...

Par-4 in Cell Cycle Regulation
Cell cycle must be carefully controlled to ensure genetic materials are replicated once and only once per cycle and equal sister chromatid... -
Germinal development in embryonic rediae of the hemiuroid digenean Bunocotyle progenetica: an ultrastructural study
Embryonic development of reproductive organs in rediae of the digenean Bunocotyle progenetica was studied using transmission electron microscopy. The...
