Nov. 26, 2024 — Scientists have shed new light on how certain biological processes determine the development of neural cells. Their findings on a molecular 'bridge' complex demonstrate a new ...

In this review, we describe the application of biophysical microscopy-based techniques in combination with GFP-chimaeras to characterize protein dynamics in living cells. The photobleaching ...

Dec. 2, 2024 — Eating a diet with a higher ratio of plant-based protein to animal-based protein may reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and coronary heart disease (CHD), according to ...

A precancerous cell is a cell with certain abnormalities that makes it more likely to become cancerous. These abnormalities don't mean that it will become cancer—in fact, most don't—but the diagnosis ...

In the late 1960's, extracts from the Caribbean sea squirt Ecteinascidia turbinata were found to be extraordinarily active as inhibitors of cell proliferation, although it was not until the last ...

In this potentially valuable study, the authors employed in vivo experiments and theoretical modeling to study the growth dynamics of nuclear condensates. They observed that condensates can exhibit ...

It feels like the Splinter Cell remake has been on its way for a decent while now, which isn't helped by the fact it's been over two years since we heard anything official about the game.

Did you know that every single living thing is made up of teeny, tiny unit structures? You have more than 75 trillion of them in your body – they’re called cells and they are amazing! Today we are ...

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, ...

For a very long time, we have been under the impression that memory and learning are solely the brain’s forte. Central to this belief is the fact that our brains, particularly our brain cells, store ...

"Learning and memory are generally associated with brains and brain cells alone, but our study shows that other cells in the body can learn and form memories, too," explains New York University's ...
