Microtubules, a key component of the cytoskeleton in eukaryotic cells, serve as scaffolds and play vital roles in cellular processes such as cell division, cell migration, intracellular transport, and ...

A joint research team from the LKS Faculty of Medicine (HKUMed) and the Faculty of Science at the University of Hong Kong has uncovered an unexpected interaction between chemotherapeutic agents and a ...

Prefoldin 5 stabilises neuronal microtubules and suppresses Tau-mediated neurotoxicity, offering a potential therapeutic target for tauopathies.

Microtubule-depolymerising agents disrupt microtubule function by binding to specific sites on β-tubulin subunits; consequently they are ideal for use in cell synchronization studies and also in the ...

Identifying the primary site using gene expression profiling in patients with carcinoma of an unknown primary (CUP): a feasibility study from the GEFCAPI ...

Researchers have identified a mechanism which can explain aspects of neurodegeneration which have baffled scientists for ...

High-resolution AFM image of the inner and outer surfaces of a microtubule. Microtubules (MTs), a key component of the cytoskeleton in eukaryotic cells, serve as scaffolds and play vital roles in ...
