Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have characterized how cellular senescence—a biological process in ...

After centuries of mapping the human body in ever-finer detail, scientists are still making discoveries. Here we are, in 2025, and a previously unknown cellular structure that could be vital to our ...

- Muscle cells, also known as myocytes, are specialized cells designed for contraction and force production. Skeletal Muscle Cells: These cells are long, cylindrical, and have a striated (or striped) ...

Every time our body encounters a new disease-causing agent, a crucial defense system called adaptive immunity comes into play ...

Custom polymer structures can now be 3D printed inside living cells using laser-based fabrication, opening paths to intracellular sensors, cell tracking tags, and embedded microlasers.

Scientists have uncovered a new way embryonic cells divide when conventional mechanisms fail. Cell division underpins all ...
