Abstract: We have demonstrated previously the involvement of certain glycosphingolipids (GSLs) in ‘contact inhibition’ (dependent on cell‐to‐cell contact) of cell growth. Here, we examined the roles of specific GSLs in contact inhibition of the human epithelial… read more here.

Abstract: Cell migration is suppressed by confluence in a process called contact inhibition. Relieving contact inhibition upon scratching is one of the simplest ways to induce cell migration in a variety of cell types. Wound healing… read more here.

Abstract: Neural stem and progenitor cells isolated from the central nervous system form, under specific culture conditions, clonal cell clusters known as neurospheres. The neurosphere assay has proven to be a powerful in vitro system to… read more here.
