Suchandrima Bhowmik has written over 300 articles on various health conditions, medical news, and recent breakthroughs. Her work appears in several publications, including Medical News Today, ...

This fundamental work demonstrates that compartmentalized cellular metabolism is a dominant input into cell size control in a variety of mammalian cell types and in Drosophila. The authors show that ...

Uric acid builds up in the blood when the body cannot excrete it efficiently, leading to painful gout attacks, kidney stones, and other complications. Current treatments often rely on drugs that block ...

Scientists led by a team at the Medical Research Council (MRC) Mitochondrial Biology Unit, University of Cambridge, have worked out how a molecular machine found in mitochondria—the “powerhouses” of ...

Fifty years since its discovery, scientists have finally worked out how a molecular machine found in mitochondria, the 'powerhouses' of our cells, allows us to make the fuel we need from sugars, a ...

Scientists have cracked the structure of the mitochondrial pyruvate carrier, a fuel gate inside our cells, after 50 years of speculation. The discovery could revolutionize treatment strategies for ...
