Scientists discover cell division does more than make new cells: It helps reshape tissues
来源: Phys.org - latest science and technology news stories · 发布于
Every time a tissue grows or renews itself, cells must divide inside an already crowded environment. That creates a fundamental problem that scientists have not fully understood: How does a tightly packed sheet of cells make room for two daughter cells when there was once only on
