Researchers at Cincinnati Children's have discovered that macrophages, a type of immune cell, connect with muscle fibers to promote rapid healing. This neuron-like mechanism involves the release of ...

A research team has found that specific immune cells can connect with muscle fibers in a lightning-fast, neuron-like way to ...

Cells can sense fluid flow through mechanosensors on their surface. This process, known as mechanotransduction, converts mechanical stimuli into biochemical signals that influence cell behavior, ...

The sarcolemma is the cell membrane of a muscle fiber (muscle cell). It plays a crucial role in the transmission of electrical signals that initiate muscle contraction. The sarcolemma is a complex ...

Membrane depolarization promotes extracellular signal-regulated kinase activation and cell proliferation via phosphatidylserine dynamics.

Lymphatic muscle cells (LMCs) are indispensable for lymphatic vessel contraction, and their aberrant recruitment or absence is associated with both primary and secondary lymphedema. Despite their ...
