Plant cells are also able to become longer as they grow. This process is called cell elongation and occurs throughout the plant, not just in the meristems. Cell elongation does not occur in animals.

When cells express specific genes that characterise a certain type of cell we say that a cell has become differentiated. Once a cell becomes differentiated it only expresses the genes that produce ...

However, scientists haven't fully understood whether infected tissue itself has any role in directing the optimal T cell differentiation ... gene and cellular biology techniques, they demonstrated ...

Nature Cell Biology - During development, stem and progenitor cells gradually commit to differentiation pathways. Cell fate decisions are regulated by differentiation factors, which activate ...
