Microtubules perform an active role in communication within the cell by transmitting received signals to the cell's ...

Mitochondria can lose power like batteries, but they can potentially be regenerated—a promising development than can be used ...

Microtubules are dynamic, tubular polymers composed of αβ-tubulin dimers that form an essential framework within eukaryotic cells. They orchestrate a wide range of cellular functions including ...

Cells manage a wide range of functions in their tiny package — growing, moving, housekeeping, and so on — and most of those functions require energy. But how do cells get this energy in the first ...

In the rapidly evolving field of drug discovery, single-cell analysis has become an invaluable tool for understanding cellular heterogeneity and molecular pathways. However, traditional single-cell ...

CHICAGO (CBS) -- Lysosomes – membrane-bound structures within each cell of humans and all animals – are sometimes known as the cells' "garbage disposals" or "cellular janitors." The structures are ...

Tiny structures inside your cells keep your body alive by turning food into fuel. These structures, called mitochondria, ...

Researchers use nanoflower-enhanced stem cells to supply extra mitochondria to damaged cells, restoring energy production and ...

Senescence is a process in which a cell ages and stops dividing but does not die. In keratinocytes, or skin cells, senescence is marked by depolarization of membrane potential (Vmem), the electrical ...

UCLA scientists have characterized the structure and function of a key survival protein in breast cancer cells that helps ...

In a study published in the journal Nucleic Acid Research, a research team at Karolinska Institutet has performed a ...

Dietary iron deficiency in mice alters lung T cell activation during influenza infection and leads to memory T cells that are ...
