Within multicellular organisms, tissues are organized communities of cells that work together to carry out a specific function. The exact role of a tissue in an organism depends on what types of ...

These are found in an early embryo. These cells are able to divide continuously. Embryonic stem cells are pluripotent. This means that all of the genes in an embryonic stem cell can be expressed ...

The nucleus of a germline stem cell undergoes two divisions, firstly separating homologous chromosomes and secondly separating chromatids. Haploid gametes contain 23 single chromosomes.

and persist throughout life through a cell division mechanism called self-renewal. Differentiation and self-renewal often go awry in blood cancer, or leukemia, to enable unlimited proliferation of ...

These findings suggest excellent opportunities to study how differentiation pathways interact with the general cell cycle machinery ... (1) Currently, our image analysis software, StarryNite, can ...
