Methods like this can help scientists sort through potential drug candidates faster and with more biological detail.

A research team at the University of Southern California (USC) has developed a new metric to evaluate how well cerebral blood flow corresponds to the cellular structure of the cerebral cortex.This met ...

Gastric cancer remains one of the world’s most lethal malignancies, and clinicians have long struggled to explain why patients with seemingly similar tumors can follow dramatically different c ...

Our cells' membranes have many functions. They not only provide mechanical protection but also precisely control which ...

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 ...

Scientists have uncovered details of the protective layer that surrounds the fine protrusions of cells. Biological cells often possess thin, hair-like protrusions on their surface known as cilia, ...

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 ...

Researchers report an unexplained 71-terahertz vibration in living cells, mouse tissues and isolated mitochondria that ...

Biomedical research typically follows a familiar path: developing treatments that block, enhance or mutate certain signaling pathways, genes or proteins to change the function of different cells in ...

Embark on a microscopic journey through the carrot plant and discover its intricate cellular structures up close. This video ...

Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have characterized how cellular senescence—a biological process in which aging cells change how they function—is associated with human brain ...
