Inside every cell are lipid molecules that make up cellular membranes, helping organelles communicate and respond to stress.

Researchers shifted the focus to the internal properties of the membrane itself, specifically its viscosity, highlighting its critical role in controlling deformation and dynamics during essential ...

The Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB) and the Institute of Microelectronics of Barcelona (IMB-CNM-CSIC) have developed a new generation of wireless piezoelectric microdevices capable of ...

Cell membranes are the boundaries of living cells. They are made up of amphiphilic lipids, cholesterol, and membrane proteins arranged in a dynamic bilayer. They regulate signal transduction, ...

When plants are subjected to Zn deficiency, the transcriptional levels of Zn-absorbing transporters (such as ZIP4, ZIP9, and ZIP12) are significantly upregulated due to the plant's stress response, ...

Melatonin reduced infection-related inflammation in human fetal membranes in an ex vivo model. The study suggests that this ...

Cell signaling is crucial for cells to communicate and function correctly. Disruptions in these pathways, caused by genetic mutations or environmental factors, can lead to uncontrolled cell growth, ...
