A poorly understood cell type, the telocyte, is shown to regulate macrophages.

Single cell transcriptomic analysis provides a reference map for human oral muscosa in health and disease and a framework for the development of new therapeutic strategies.

Quantitative analyses associating the morphology of developing organs with dynamic gene expression patterns can reveal biological phenomena that cause malformations and malfunction but remain elusive to traditional qualitative assessments.

Neurons that provide information about the direction of the head are present in nucleus reuniens and can potentially directly influence spatial processing in the hippocampus.

Six- to twelve-month old infants, who have little linguistic or object experience, classify objects by relying on a invariant representation of global shape known as the shape skeleton.

Functional neuroimaging reveals sensitivity to shape information and correlation between brain activation and perceptual behaviour in both dorsal and ventral visual pathways, thereby challenging the strict binary distinctions between the two pathways.

The nearly universal nature of scaled cell shape variability in an epithelial monolayer is unavoidable, irrespective of health or disease, as it comes from a mathematical property.

Asymmetries between the shape of the left and right human cortex are highly unique to individuals, akin to a neuroanatomical fingerprint, related to cognitive function, and primarily driven by person-specific environmental influences.

Puzzle-shape cells in the epidermis of many plants form due to a development constraint based on mechanical forces.

The size of a subcellular structure, yeast actin cables, scales with the linear dimensions of the cell, which is achieved by feedback control of their growth rate.
