  2. A431 cells - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A431_Cells

    A431 cells were established from an epidermoid carcinoma in the skin of an 85- year-old female patient. Epidermal growth factor (EGF) stimulation of A431 cells induces rapid tyrosine phosphorylation of intracellular signaling proteins which control cellular processes such as growth, proliferation and apoptosis.

  3. List of human cell types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_human_cell_types

    The Human Cell Atlas project, which started in 2016, had as one of its goals to "catalog all cell types (for example, immune cells or brain cells) and sub-types in the human body". [13] By 2018, the Human Cell Atlas description based the project on the assumption that "our characterization of the hundreds of types and subtypes of cells in the ...

  4. Immortalised cell line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immortalised_cell_line

    Immortal cell lines are a very important tool for research into the biochemistry and cell biology of multicellular organisms. Immortalised cell lines have also found uses in biotechnology . An immortalised cell line should not be confused with stem cells , which can also divide indefinitely, but form a normal part of the development of a ...

  6. Epidermal growth factor receptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epidermal_growth_factor...

    A single child displaying multi-organ epithelial inflammation was found to have a homozygous loss of function mutation in the EGFR gene. The pathogenicity of the EGFR mutation was supported by in vitro experiments and functional analysis of a skin biopsy. His severe phenotype reflects many previous research findings into EGFR function.

  7. Sentinel cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sentinel_cell

    Sentinel cells refer to cells in the body's first line of defense, which embed themselves in tissues such as skin. [1] Sentinel cells represent diverse array of cell types with the capability to monitor the presence of exogenous or potentially harmful particles and play a crucial role in recognizing and sampling signs of infection or abnormal cellular activity and/or death.

  9. Morphogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morphogen

    Morphogenesis of Drosophila fruit flies is intensively studied in the laboratory. A morphogen is a substance whose non-uniform distribution governs the pattern of tissue development in the process of morphogenesis or pattern formation, one of the core processes of developmental biology, establishing positions of the various specialized cell types within a tissue.
