See how Harish Venkatachalapathy entrained p53. With Batchelor lab (@UMN_IBP) and @AzarinLab. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… @sarkarlab @UMNBME
Pulsed stimuli entrain p53 to synchronize single cells and modulate cell-fate determination

Pulsed stimuli entrain p53 to synchronize single cells and modulate cell-fate determination

Entrainment to an external stimulus enables a synchronized oscillatory response across a population of cells, increasing coherent responses by reducing cell-to-cell heterogeneity. It is unclear...

Pleased to share work from newly minted PhD, Harish Venkatachalapathy, with @AzarinLab and Batchelor lab (@UMN_IBP), using energy landscapes to study quiescence-proliferation decision in cancer. Key takeaway: cell state velocity matters! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… @sarkarlab @UMNBME

Energy landscapes can provide intuitive depictions of population heterogeneity and dynamics. However, it is unclear whether individual cell behavior, hypothesized to be determined by initial position...
