A syncytium is the normal cell structure for many fungi.

Ventricular syncytium refers to the same network in the ventricle.

The plates are covered by the epidermis, which consists of a smooth syncytium.

That is not all: the multicellular form loses its cell walls, and becomes a syncytium.

Regarding the syncytium, it is well established that the F protein plays an active role in its formation.

This is a special type of syncytium.

Syncytium is formed in pericycle and endodermal cells of the plant.

In sum, cardiac muscle is a syncytium, meaning when one cell contracts, they all contract.

This method involves the action of morphogen gradients within the syncytium.

This layer is a syncytium, containing nuclei, but no cell membranes.

A classic example of a syncytium is the formation of skeletal muscle.

In this way, the fiber syncytium assumes the functions of nerve and muscle tissues.

It is also unique among model organisms in that cleavage occurs in a syncytium.

Another important vertebrate syncytium is in the placenta of placental mammals.

It is a syncytium consisting of multinucleated tissues with no distinct cell boundaries.

This correlated with differences in syncytium formation (Fig.

Digestion is accomplished by means of a syncytium that forms a vacuole around ingested food.

Another hypothesis is that a primitive cell underwent nucleus division, thereby becoming a syncytium.

Within them, vacuoles appear through liquefaction of the central part of the syncytium into plasma.

The placenta of mammals is a syncytium.

For syncytium formation and viral maturation, however, we could not rule out the possibility that profilin might also have a direct role.

It is possible that short F-actin polymers, anchored at the microdomains, trigger syncytium.

Finally, after the 13th division cell membranes slowly invaginate, dividing the syncytium into individual somatic cells.

The syncytiotrophoblast (otherwise known as syncytium), thereby contributes to the barrier function of the placenta.

An increase in intracellular calcium concentration can propagate outwards through this functional syncytium.
