Calcium (Ca2+) drives many cellular functions, though the way it controls quality of proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum ...
Unlike our organs, cell organelles such as mitochondria are not fixed in place, but when, where, how, and why organelles move ...
Scientists from The First Affiliated Hospital of Dalian Medical University have developed a novel bioengineered system using membrane self-assembly to create neural stem cell-derived oxidative ...
Creating mini mitochondria factories helped recharge damaged cells in a dish, providing proof-of-concept work that could pave ...
There’s unexpected movement in the world of cell biology — specifically, with the energy factories known as mitochondria. Ever since they were discovered in the mid-nineteenth century, mitochondria ...
Unlike our organs, cell organelles such as mitochondria are not fixed in place, but when, where, how, and why organelles move ...
Hemifusomes are fused vesicles, or sacs of fluid, that were previously unknown to exist inside cells. They were discovered using cryo-electron tomography, which literally freezes them in time, and ...
The article begins by introducing SGs as cytoplasmic ribonucleoprotein granules formed through phase separation in response to stress. It discusses SGs’ roles in RNA metabolism, translation regulation ...
Hyperspectral imaging has provided an insight into how cells organize and prioritize organelle growth. As cells grow, their organelles also need to grow. But do all the organelles grow at the same ...
Scientists have been peeking through microscopes and taking pictures of cells for decades. The methods available for visualizing highly complex cells have changed over time, moving from simpler ...
