A recent study published in Cell Death & Disease suggests that specific cellular abnormalities in the brain associated with ...

When oil is dropped in water, the oil droplets stay separate. Cells can also use a system like this to separate or gather materials, encouraging various reactions and processes to occur. Scientists ...

For nearly half a century, scientists have known that malaria parasites force their way into human red blood cells through a ...

The mechanical process of cell division exerts powerful, if microscopic, forces. How do the molecular machines that power it ...

Researchers at the University of Twente and Utrecht University have packed rigid, rod-shaped particles into soft lipid ...

Biomolecular condensates were long believed to be simple liquid blobs inside cells. Researchers have now uncovered that some are actually supported by fine protein filaments forming an internal ...

What can the shape of the nucleolus tell us about a cell’s response to drugs? Researchers use advanced microscopy techniques ...

T cells are a key pillar of our adaptive immune response against foreign pathogens and hold an essential role in disease surveillance. These cells are often classified into two canonical classes, ...

Fighting cancer can seem like a deadly game of chance. While some patients may respond well to certain treatments, others might not be as fortunate. Doctors and scientists have long struggled to ...

A largely overlooked structure inside our cells may play a crucial role in how the brain forms, offering new insight into developmental disorders and potential therapies. In a study published in Cell ...
