Cells have the ability to respond to various types of environmental cues, and in many cases
these cues induce directed cell migration towards or away from these signals. How cells …

The great plasticity of Schwann cells (SCs), the myelinating glia of the peripheral nervous
system (PNS), is a critical feature in the context of peripheral nerve regeneration following …

Blood vessels form a versatile transport network that is best known for its critical roles in
processes such as tissue oxygenation, metabolism and immune surveillance. The …

During nervous system development, neurons extend axons to reach their targets and form
functional circuits. The faulty assembly or disintegration of such circuits results in disorders …

Recent studies have identified a specialized subset of CD31hiendomucinhi
(CD31hiEMCNhi) vascular endothelium that positively regulates bone formation. However, it …

Neuroblastoma is a neural crest derived malignancy of the peripheral nervous system and is
the most common and deadliest tumor of infancy. It is characterized by clinical heterogeneity …

Efforts to decipher chronic lung disease and to reconstitute functional lung tissue through
regenerative medicine have been hampered by an incomplete understanding of cell-cell …

Congenital diaphragmatic hernias (CDHs) and structural anomalies of the diaphragm are a
common class of congenital birth defects that are associated with significant morbidity and …

Coupling between angiogenesis and osteogenesis has an important role in both normal
bone injury repair and successful application of tissue‐engineered bone for bone defect …

SLIT2 is a secreted polypeptide that guides migration of cells expressing Roundabout 1 and
2 (ROBO1 and ROBO2) receptors. Herein, we investigated SLIT2/ROBO signaling effects in …
