Scientists have uncovered a key mechanism in jellyfish embryos that provides new insights into how the body plan of these animals develops along a central axis from their "head" to "tail." ...

It’s a rainy Tuesday. It would be a perfect day to just relax on a couch and study a great personal development book; tune up the weight loss mindset. In the next part of our LAWS OF THE ...

A new study has unveiled the crucial role of low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 (LRP1) in skeletal development.

Activation of T cells by antigen-presenting cells requires the formation of an immunological synapse, which involves changes in membrane dynamics and cell polarity within the first few hours of ...

As the time line at right shows, hundreds of times in our planet's history the polarity of the magnetic shield ensheathing the globe has gone from "normal," our current orientation to the north ...

Earlier studies indicated that both planar cell polarity (PCP) signalling and cilia-generated fluid flows could influence ciliary orientation. We now learn how asymmetric localization of PCP ...

You want to make sure that a battery plugged in the wrong way, or a polarity mistake with your bench PSU doesn’t damage that hardware. It’s easy enough to plop in a diode for protection ...

Researchers at Leipzig University have developed a new process for reversing the polarity of chemical compounds, also known as umpolung, for the precise synthesis of pharmaceuticals. "This ...

Researchers have discovered that a single molecule, Wnt3, coordinates a two-step process of cell polarity orientation that enables jellyfish embryos to develop around a central axis, shedding light on ...
