Negative contrast imaging of the cultured endophyte community by transmission microscopy showed the existence of structures facilitating communication between cells.
Following transfection, BRMS1 restored gap junctional intercellular communication between cells, whereas vector-only transfectants still did not communicate in this manner.
There were obvious mysteries, particularly those of communication between cells.
But more importantly, they are the channels of communication between cells that make possible all brain functions, including perception, memory, emotion and thinking.
So his team decided that rather than looking at all proteins in the blood, it would focus on those involved in communication between cells, hoping to eavesdrop, as it were, on dialogue related to Alzheimer's.
In addition to direct radiation effects, communication between cells is also very important after radiation exposure.
Gap junctions differ from chemical synapses in that they allow for direct communication between cells.
Mechanobiology seeks to understand and control mechanical and related biophysical communication between cells and their surroundings.
Finally, communication between cells and their environment is essential; they use various signals to do so.
Communication between cells and their microenvironment plays a pivotal role both in physiological and pathological conditions.
But how exosomes instigate communication between cells has remained largely unknown.
