they undergo an asymmetric cell division. With asymmetric division, each of the two resulting daughter cells has its own unique life course. In this case, one of the daughter cells has a finite ...

A recent Cell Reports paper by the Oxenius group (IMB) demonstrates a function of targeted centrosome inheritance during CD8+ T cell division for the generation of memory precursor cells.

The Hawkins lab uses C. elegans to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying asymmetric cell division. Asymmetric cell division is the process by which a mother cell divides to produce two ...

Cell division is the process by which a parental cell gives rise to two daughter cells. The process involves both nuclear division and cytokinesis and can either produce two equal cells (symmetric ...

We know that hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) must negotiate a delicate balance between symmetric division and asymmetric division in order to maintain self-renewal of the HSC compartment and continued ...
