[78] [79] This feature confines far-UVC exposure to the superficial layers of tissue, such as the outer layer of dead skin (the stratum corneum) and the tear film and surface cells of the cornea. [ 22 ] [ 80 ] [ 81 ] [ 82 ] As these tissues do not contain replicating cells, damage to them poses less carcinogenic risk.
Schematic of cell adhesion. Cell adhesion is the process by which cells interact and attach to neighbouring cells through specialised molecules of the cell surface. This process can occur either through direct contact between cell surfaces such as cell junctions or indirect interaction, where cells attach to surrounding extracellular matrix, a gel-like structure containing molecules released ...
They hold a maximum of 400 μl. Electroporation, or electropermeabilization, is a technique in which an electrical field is applied to cells in order to increase the permeability of the cell membrane. This may allow chemicals, drugs, electrode arrays or DNA to be introduced into the cell (also called electrotransfer). [1] [2] [3] [4]
Cell engineering is the purposeful process of adding, deleting, or modifying genetic sequences in living cells to achieve biological engineering goals such as altering cell production, changing cell growth and proliferation requirements, adding or removing cell functions, and many more.
Stable cell-cell interactions are required for cell adhesion within a tissue and controlling the shape and function of cells. [1] These stable interactions involve cell junctions which are multiprotein complexes that provide contact between neighboring cells. Cell junctions allow for the preservation and proper functioning of epithelial cell ...
Kidney and nerve tissue cells can form memories much like brain cells, one new study has found. Another recent study says that memories of obesity stored in fat tissue may be partly responsible ...
Tissue clearing refers to a group of chemical techniques used to turn tissues transparent. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] By turning tissues transparent to certain wavelengths of light, it allows one to gain optical access to a tissue. [ 1 ]
