âAbout the Lab/Branch. The Laboratory of Genetics and Physiology (LGP) explores the biology of cytokines. In particular we investigate genetic and epigenetic mechanisms used to control development of the mammary gland and liver metabolism and cancer.âââ. Principal Investigators.
In anatomy, a ganglion (/ËÉ¡Ã¦ÅÉ¡liÉn/ GANG-glee-Én; plural ganglia) is a nerve cell cluster or a group of nerve cell bodies located in the autonomic nervous system and sensory system. Ganglia house the cell bodies of afferent nerves.
Cilia are slender, microscopic, hair-like structures or organelles that extend from the surface of nearly all mammalian cells (multiple or single). They are primordial. The ciliary apparatus is connected to cell cycle progression and proliferation, and cilia play a vital part in human and animal development and in everyday life.
