By trawling through databases of RNA sequences based on models of intestinal damage, a team of researchers led by scientists ...

The epithelial–mesenchymal transition is the process by which polarised epithelial cells that are connected via adhesion lose their characteristics and acquire migratory and invasive properties ...

This paper presents the important discovery that lipid metabolic imbalance caused by Snail, an EMT-related transcription factor, contributes to the acquisition of chemoresistance in cancer cells.

Cells lining the airways are squeezed ... Until now, this lining damage had been overlooked, she told BBC News. "This epithelial lining is the body's first line of defence against things like ...

Researchers used induced pluripotent stem cells to regenerate damaged corneal cells ... In the lab, iPSCs were coaxed into corneal epithelial cell sheets (iCEPS) and transplanted onto the corneas ...

Using single-cell sequencing and spatial mapping, the researchers specifically investigated breast epithelial cells. Navin points out that epithelial cells, which line and cover the inside and ...
