Prior to using this narrative, have learners create their own model of a cell in their notebooks using whatever background information or experience they might have. While exploring the narrative, ...

Hyperspectral imaging has provided an insight into how cells organize and prioritize organelle growth. As cells grow, their organelles also need to grow. But do all the organelles grow at the same ...

"Our new tool allows us to study how changes in mitochondrial abundance and the mitochondrial genome affect cells and organisms," said Jun Wu, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Molecular Biology at UT ...

Mitochondrial dysfunctions are associated with a variety of pathologies, and the onset and progression of disease are accompanied by alterations in extracellular biochemical and mechanical signals.

The peripheral endoplasmic reticulum (ER) forms a continuous, dynamic network of tubules that plays an important role in protein transport and quality control, cellular signaling, and stress response.

Scientists from The First Affiliated Hospital of Dalian Medical University have developed a novel bioengineered system using membrane self-assembly to create neural stem cell-derived oxidative ...

Think back to that basic biology class you took in high school. You probably learned about organelles, those little “organs” inside cells that form compartments with individual functions. For example, ...

In a recent review published in the journal Neuropsychopharmacology, a group of authors elucidated the intracellular dynamics of antidepressants, challenging the traditional extracellular interaction ...

Macrophages are part of the immune system's frontline; they attack and "eat" invaders to protect surrounding cells. They, along with other cells, maintain intracellular conditions through ...
