Other signaling molecules must move much farther ... In fact, there are hundreds of receptor types found in cells, and varying cell types have different populations of receptors.

This is what miners sometimes use to “signal” information to the rest of the world. But broadly speaking, there are really two types of “signaling.” The first type is signaling support. This requires ...

Because of cell signaling, tissues have the ability to carry out tasks no single cell could accomplish on its own. Different types of tissues, such as bone, brain, and the lining of the gut ...

Aberrant Wnt signaling has also been identified as a key mechanism in cancer biology. This article summarizes both the canonical (β-catenin dependent) and non-canonical (β-catenin independent) ...

Here, Caroline Hill, Ph.D., from The Francis Crick Institute, UK, shares insight into cell communication and signaling dysregulation – her area of expertise. Her research group are focused on ...
