11 Dec 2020 Scientists have an atlas of dental cells, teeth could heal themselves Instead of drills, the sound of which scares many patients, dentists could in the future use dental cells to treat tooth decay. They are newly described in detail in the atlas of dental cells, which was created with the contribution of the Faculty of Medicine of Masaryk University
17 Sep 2020 Our paper has been published in Stem Cell journal Our paper entitled "miR-183/96/182 cluster is an important morphogenetic factor targeting PAX6 expression in differentiating human retinal organoids" has been published in Stem Cell journal.

5 May 2020 Article indentifying kinesin KIF14 as a new regulator of cilia formation and function Study led by Petra Pejšková from a group of Lukas Cajanek, entitled: KIF14 controls ciliogenesis via regulation of Aurora A and is important for Hedgehog signaling has been accepted for publication in Journal of Cell Biology
7 Apr 2020 Phosphorylation of multiple proteins involved in ciliogenesis by Tau Tubulin kinase 2 Study led by Ondrej Bernatik from a group of Lukas Cajanek, entitled: Phosphorylation of multiple proteins involved in ciliogenesis by Tau Tubulin kinase 2 has been accepted for publication in Mol Biol Cell. This work identifies several novel substrates and many new target sites of TTBK2 and hence provides valuable insight into the molecular control of cilia formation.
