research Wnt Signaling Regulates Symmetry of Division of Neural Stem Cells in the Adult Brain and in Response to Injury
Wnt signaling helps control how brain stem cells divide and is important for brain repair after injury.
research Human αβ and γδ T Cells in Skin Immunity and Disease
Certain types of T cells are essential for healthy skin and play a role in skin diseases, but more research is needed to improve treatments.
research Regulation of Mitochondrial Oxidative Metabolism by Tumor Suppressor FLCN
The tumor suppressor gene FLCN affects mitochondrial function and energy use in cells.
