The protection and preservation of the genetic material by tiny holes in the cell nucleus is crucial for healthy ageing. German researchers from the Synthetic Biophysics of Protein Disorder Group at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz and the Department of Theoretical Biophysics at the Max P
As heart cells mature in mice, the number of communication pathways called nuclear pores dramatically decreases, according to new research from University of Pittsburgh and UPMC scientists. While this might protect the organ from damaging signals, it could also prevent adult heart cells from
