  • It is designed to treat micrometastatic disease (or breast cancer cells that have escaped the breast and regional lymph nodes but which have not yet had an established identifiable metastasis). (medscape.com)
  • Approval of ribociclib was based on interim analysis results from the pivotal phase 3 MONALEESA-2 trial in postmenopausal women who received no prior systemic therapy for their advanced breast cancer. (medscape.com)
  • In this paper, we propose a dynamical model for the molecular events underlying these early nuclear division cycles in Drosophila. (vt.edu)
  • During the cell growth and division cycle, the centrioles duplicate at a time around the beginning of the S-phase, when DNA replicates. (cellimagelibrary.org)
  • Precise activation and inactivation of CDKs at specific points in the cell cycle are required for orderly cell division. (kegg.jp)
  • This suggests that the modification of STIL by PLK4 is important for normal cell division across different species. (elifesciences.org)
  • The cell cycle is a series of carefully regulated events, including periods of growth, rest, and cell division. (coursehero.com)
  • Interphase, the part of the cell cycle between division events, includes the G1, S, and G2 phases, during which the cell grows, replicates its DNA, and undergoes its usual functions. (coursehero.com)
  • Most cells spend nearly all of their time in this part of cell division, growing in size and carrying out the normal functions of the cell. (coursehero.com)
  • When the cell receives signals for division, it moves to the S phase. (coursehero.com)
  • In this way, to corroborate the ultrastructural characterization of the cells, mainly that entered in cycle of division, can contribute to solve the debate. (fapesp.br)
  • This result demonstrated that mitotic entry was controlled by a diffusible cytoplasmic factor and not by a "nuclear clock. (wikipedia.org)
  • In the final stages of the process, dying cells become fragmented into apoptotic bodies and consequently are eliminated by phagocytic cells without significant inflammatory damage to surrounding cells. (bdbiosciences.com)
  • Furthermore, the piceatannol-suppressed mitotic clonal expansion was accompanied by reduced activation of the insulin-signaling pathway. (oregonstate.edu)
  • Previous studies have found that DIM can improve type 2 diabetes by enhancing glucose uptake through the activation of insulin signaling in 3T3-L1 cells, and by lowering the plasma glucose levels in high-fat-diet-fed obese mice [13, 14]. (researchgate.net)
  • Consequently, Klf2a then activates endocardial Notch signaling which results in the non-cell autonomous initiation of myocardial Erbb2 and BMP signaling to promote cardiomyocyte reprogramming and heart regeneration. (elifesciences.org)
  • Piceatannol, natural polyphenolic stilbene, inhibits adipogenesis via modulation of mitotic clonal expansion and insulin receptor-dependent insulin signaling in early phase of differentiation. (oregonstate.edu)
  • Most animal cells contain two to four centrioles. (cellimagelibrary.org)
  • In this way, centrioles participate in organizing the cell cytoskeleton. (cellimagelibrary.org)
  • With only two to four centrioles per cell, clear images of centrioles in multicellular organisms are difficult to find. (cellimagelibrary.org)
  • Cells in which PLK4 was unable to modify STIL had too few centrioles when they were beginning to divide. (elifesciences.org)
  • Loss of corneal endothelial cells (CECs) bears disastrous consequences for the patient, including corneal clouding and blindness. (lww.com)
  • 1 If the number of corneal endothelial cells (CECs) falls below a certain threshold because of traumatic injury, disease, or normal aging processes, functionality of the CE is decreased, and the cornea swells and becomes milky, leading to eventual vision loss. (lww.com)
  • The histologic hallmark of AE is represented by the presence of sheets and groups of atypical endothelial cells with prominent epithelioid morphologies. (bvsalud.org)
  • During the synthesis (S) phase of the cell cycle, DNA polymerases incorporate a variety of nucleosides (deoxyadenosine, deoxyguanosine, deoxycytidine and thymidine) into the newly extending strands of DNA. (bdbiosciences.com)
  • Bifurcation analysis of the differential equations reveals the dependence of mitotic oscillations on cycle number, and how this dependence is altered by mutations. (vt.edu)
  • Clinically, grade 3B follicular lymphoma is treated like diffuse large B-cell lymphoma . (medscape.com)
  • Plogosertib is under clinical development by Cyclacel Pharmaceuticals and currently in Phase II for Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma. (pharmaceutical-technology.com)
  • About 4% of cases of diffuse large B-cell cell lymphoma possess BCL2/MYC double translocations, suggesting a synergistic effect of BCL2 and MYC in lymphoma development. (haematologica.org)
  • During G1 and S phase, the CDK1 subunit of MPF is inactive due to an inhibitory enzyme, Wee1. (wikipedia.org)
  • When the body needs to make more cells, for example during growth or repair, existing cells divide in two in order to replicate themselves. (elifesciences.org)
  • Human fibroblast monocultures were found to be insufficient to fully replicate in vivo fibrosis outcomes suggesting in vitro predictive potential depends upon more advanced cell culture in vitro models. (cdc.gov)
