Signal transduction describes the process of conversion of external signals, such as hormones, growth factors, neurotransmitters, and cytokines, to a specific internal cellular response ...

Because signal transduction pathways represent the nexus through which nearly all biological information moves between and within cells and across organisms, manipulating these pathways is likely ...

Members of the program engage in research aimed at obtaining a mechanistic understanding of signal transduction and cellular regulation, which includes cellular signaling pathways and downstream ...

The purine/purinergic system has emerged as a fundamental regulator of cellular communication, influencing various physiological processes such as metabolism, energy balance, and signal transduction.

Coordinated development requires that cells communicate with each other. This is made possible by molecular mechanisms of cell-cell signaling, by which cells can influence each other’s fate and ...

Cell density is a broadly applicable tool for guiding engineered and naturally occurring cells to build a vast array of structures, tissues, and organs.

Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide (VIP) is an intriguing neuropeptide with a wide range of potential biological impacts, primarily hypothesized in tissues, cells, and internal systems. Since its discovery ...

Concerns about COVID-19 have significantly diminished, but researchers continue to analyze its high transmission rate, aiming ...

Research in our laboratory aims to characterize the molecular mechanisms underlying cell-to-cell interactions and signal transduction across the cell membrane. We are particularly interested in ...
