When cancer cells are physically squeezed, they mount an instant, high-energy defense by rushing mitochondria to the cell ...

Cells all require the transport of materials to maintain their function. In nerve cells, a tiny motor made of protein called ...

Cryo-electron microscopy and tomography are transforming structural biology, offering unprecedented insights into ...

Cells all require the transport of materials to maintain their function. In nerve cells, a tiny motor made of protein called KIF1A is responsible for that. Mutations in this protein can lead to ...

The discovery of a defensive mechanism could help stop cancer before it spreads. Cancer cells rapidly increase their energy ...

University of Toronto researchers have made the first discovery of a virus that infects Legionella pneumophila, the bacteria ...

Cells all require the transport of materials to maintain their function. In nerve cells, a tiny motor made of protein called ...

This important study demonstrates that ocular organoids can generate both retina and lens through a non-canonical, "inside-out" morphogenetic route. The work is solid, with well-designed experiments ...

Bake them, freeze them, fire them from a gun or blast them into space: tardigrades can survive almost anything. Some experts ...

A rat study has found that aerobic exercise may reshape nerves that control the heart. However, the impact was not the same ...

This valuable study identifies a brown adipose tissue-specific heat shock factor 1-alcohol dehydrogenase 5 (ADH5) molecular cascade as a regulator of systemic aging, showing that ADH5 deficiency ...
