    Critical Regulatory Mechanism Controlling Blood Vessel Growth Discovered That Might H

    Angiogenesis, the growth of new blood vessels, is a complex process during which different signalling proteins interact with each other in a highly coordinated fashion. The growth factor VEGF and the Notch signalling pathway both play important roles in this process. VEGF promotes vessel growth...

    Researchers Elucidate Molecular Mechanism Contributing To Cardiomyopathy

    Cardiomyopathy comprises a deterioration of the heart muscle that affects the organ's ability to efficiently pump blood through the body. Previously researchers have tied forms of the disease to the alternative splicing of titin, a giant protein that determines the structure and biomechanical...

    Holoprosencephaly - Molecular Mechanism Identified

    Scientists have now identified a molecular mechanism, which is fundamental in the most common brain malformations in humans. Holoprosencephaly (HPE) is a disorder in which the forebrain (prosencephalon) of an embryo is formed incompletely, failing to develop into two hemispheres, in which a...

    Exploring Insect Brains Reveals Mechanism Behind Associative Memory

    A key feature of human and animal brains is that they are adaptive; they are able to change their structure and function based on input from the environment and on the potential associations, or consequences, of that input. For example, if a person puts his hand in a fire and gets burned, he...

    Mechanism Uncovered For The Establishment Of Vertebrate Left-right Asymmetry

    A research team at the Hubrecht Institute, Utrecht, demonstrates a mechanism by which left-right asymmetry in the body is established and maintained. The study, published in the open-access journal PLoS Genetics, offers a new model of how families of genes interact to promote and direct body...

    Salk Scientists Discover A Highly Conserved Mechanism Governing Brain Development

    If you think today's political rhetoric is overheated, imagine what goes on inside a vertebrate embryo. There, two armies whose agendas are poles apart, engage in a battle with consequences much more dire than whether the economy will recover---- they are battling for whether you (or frogs or...
