Epithelial cells line the body’s surfaces to protect against physical damage, pathogens, and dehydration. These cells play key roles in absorbing nutrients and removing waste products, as well as ...

Scientists have uncovered a novel mechanism through which skin cells organize and control protein production during ...

Objective Macrophages and kidney cell pyroptosis/ferroptosis could play an important role in the pathogenesis of lupus ...

A study in Developmental Cell reveals that epidermal cells preload their perimeters with ribosomes and specific mRNAs, enabling near-instant protein synthesis when the skin barrier is breached. This ...

It has long been thought that only nerve and heart cells use electric impulses to communicate, while epithelial cells -- which compose the linings of our skin, organs and body cavities -- are mute, ...
