Evolution likes to borrow. It can take an already-successful biological structure and alter it until it serves a new function. Two independent groups studying the proteins that organize gut microvilli ...
Jane A. Westfall, Kelley L. Sayyar and Carol F. Elliott Sea anemones feed by orchestrated movements of tentacles covered with ciliary cones overlying both nematocytes and sensory neurons and mediating ...
The mesothelial cells of the mouse omentum provide an in vivo model for the study of the mobilization of labile microvilli on the cell surface. These mesothelial cells are sparsely covered with ...
This view of a kidney epithelial cell provides important insights into how microvilli, which absorb nutrients, are created and how they behave. This view of a kidney epithelial cell provides important ...
Recent studies used impression cytology with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to study the conjunctival surface of bovine eyes and normal human eyes. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the ...
The ocular surface is a frequent target tissue of mucosal chronic GVHD (cGVHD). We investigated the histopathological features of the conjunctival microvilli in patients with cGVHD. Conjunctival ...
The extracellular domain of SAP-1 extends into the intestinal lumen and its active tyrosine phosphatase domain resides in the cytoplasm. SAP-1 is thought to inhibit the development of colitis by ...
