Ingestion of food and water induces chemical and mechanical signals that trigger peristaltic reflexes in the gut. Intestinal villi are motile, equipped with chemosensors and mechanosensors, and transduce signaling to sensory neurons, but th...

The concept of a spindle matrix has long been proposed to account for incompletely understood features of microtubule spindle dynamics and force production during mitosis. In its simplest formulation, the spindle matrix is hypothesized to p...

Leptin, the product of the obesity gene (ob) predominantly secreted from adipocytes, plays a major role in the negative control of feeding and acts via a specific receptor (Ob-R), six isoforms of which are known at present. Evidence has bee...
