BACKGROUND: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have strong self-renewal ability and multiple differentiation potential. Some studies confirmed that spreading shape and area of single MSCs influence cell differentiation, but few studies...
The maintenance of whole-body glucose homeostasis is critical for survival, and is controlled by the coordination of multiple organs and endocrine systems. Pancreatic islet beta cells secrete insulin in response...
Rho small GTPases control multiple aspects of neuronal morphogenesis by regulating the assembly and organization of the actin cytoskeleton. Although they are negatively regulated by GTPase activating proteins (GAPs), the...
The cytotoxicological responses to insect growth regulator (IGR), using tebufenozide as ecdysteroid mimic, were investigated in Drosophila Kc cells. Treatment of Kc cells with tebufenozide showed significant growth inhibition and...
Laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis(LASIK) theoretically provide less corneal haze and more accurate correction. In the LASIK. however, photo refractive keratectomy(PRK) will be done on the stromal surface exposed after removal...
The healing mechanism of corneal endothelium after alkali burn was not completely understood. Rabbit cornea was burned with 1N sodium hydxoside for 1 minute. Endothelial F-actin was stained with NBD-phallacidin...
