Scientists have found an essential factor from the extracellular matrix that regulates functionality of the breast tissue for instance during pregnancy. Scientists at the University of Helsinki have ...

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of extracellular, zinc-dependent endopeptidases that have emerged as pivotal regulators of neural plasticity and synaptic function. In the brain, MMPs ...

A groundbreaking study led by Children's Hospital Los Angeles has found a novel mechanism behind neuroblastoma progression: the shape and structure of the extracellular matrix. The study, led by ...

A joint research team develops robust and stretchable extracellular matrix (ECM) membrane reinforced by nanofiber scaffolds. Animal models are widely used for evaluating a drug in its development ...

Fascia of live mouse pancreas, in which the extracellular matrix is labeled with Rhobo6 (red) and nuclei are labeled with Hoechst (cyan). Maximum intensity projection shown. Before arriving at Janelia ...

This study reports an important and novel finding that TENT5A, an enzyme involved in fine-tuning poly(A) tail length on selected mRNAs, is required for proper enamel mineralization in mice. The ...
