Molecular Stop Signal IdentifiedThe Surveillance System of Cell Division

  • von Birte Vierjahn
  • 04.06.2024

During cell division, each of the resulting daughter cells receives one part of a pair of chromosomes. But how is this process monitored and how are potential errors prevented? Biologists at the UDE have been able to clarify the matter. Current Biology reports.

After stroke and heart attackA cause of immunodeficiency identified

  • von Birte Vierjahn
  • 23.04.2024

After surviving a stroke or heart attack, infections start to increase. A team from the UDE, the UK Essen and the ISAS in Dortmund has found a reason why the immune system is often disturbed after these health incidents and derived a treatment approach from this.

Decomposition of Damaged LysosomesNew Signaling Pathway Decoded

  • von Birte Vierjahn
  • 08.04.2024

Is it worth repairing the lysosome? Or is its dissolution safer? Researchers at the UDE have identified a new signaling pathway for our cells to make the decision to degrade the organelle. The biologists have published their findings in Molecular Cell.
