Neurons carry vital signals all over our body, and the nervous system controls many crucial functions, from breathing to ...

When the body encounters infection or cancer, cytotoxic T lymphocytes attach to the affected cell and form the immune synapse ...

Impaired mitophagy and the accumulation of damaged mitochondria are key drivers of endothelial cell (EC) dysfunction in ...

Cells use a surprising “pearling” motion to evenly distribute mitochondrial DNA. This newly uncovered process may be key to ...

A collaboration between the University of Geneva and Lausanne University Hospital has shown in new detail how the body's defenses fight back against malignant cells. Those defenses involve T ...

Before seedlings can photosynthesize, they depend on fatty acids—and on peroxisomes to process them. Researchers discovered ...

From the fluid mosaic model to tight junctions, cell membranes are the ultimate gatekeepers of life. They manage what comes in and out, maintain balance, and even signal to other cells. Understanding ...

Cytotoxic T lymphocytes are the body's specialized "killer" cells, precisely eliminating infected or cancerous cells. Their ...

Scientists at Durham University, working in partnership with Jagiellonian University in Poland, have developed a new ...

Researchers used cryo-expansion microscopy to map the immune synapse in near-native conditions, uncovering structural ...
