Josephson junctions are quantum mechanical devices consisting of two superconductors separated by a thin insulating barrier. They are named after Brian Josephson, who predicted their unique properties ...

The side-to-side junctions that link epithelial cells are ... Both of these types of junctional complexes provide cells and tissues with mechanical support, and they additionally recruit ...

the E-cadherin junctions. Moreover, they showed that cells are extruded either apically or basally into the tissue, again depending on mechanical intercellular forces. The researchers also ...
