After three years of study, the researchers found that alpha-synuclein, a protein closely linked to Parkinson’s disease, ...

Explore the vital role of bone marrow stem cells. Learn how they drive bone remodeling, immunity, and skeletal health in this ...

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 ...

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 ...

Single-cell analysis is a ubiquitous laboratory technique that allows researchers to probe the myriad biomolecular states of cells. Single-cell assays can reveal gene and protein expression patterns, ...

Metabolism, far from being just a housekeeping function, underlies all changes in cell size and function ...

The mini review brings together emerging evidence showing that glial cells actively influence disease progression and ...

The cochlea is the spiral-shaped structure within the inner ear responsible for our sense of hearing. To fully understand hearing functions and open the door to new hearing loss treatments, scientists ...

Microtubules perform an active role in communication within the cell by transmitting received signals to the cell's functional units. Researchers at the Paul Scherrer Institute PSI and the Department ...

Dermatology is entering a "biological revolution," with engineered tissues and bio-machines offering new therapeutic ...
