"What our work shows is how a complex in the center of the cell, the ER-Golgi interaction region, controls plasma membrane cholesterol, which is essential for many cellular functions, if not essential ...

Investigators have identified several steps in a cellular process responsible for triggering one of the body's important inflammatory responses. Their findings open up possibilities for modulating the ...

Dry eye disease affects millions of people, causing burning, redness, and constant eye fatigue that can worsen over time. Scientists now believe the problem may begin deep inside tear glands, where a ...

“Our study enables us to envisage a global picture of genes and pathways dysregulated during senescence and provides novel evidence for involvement of p53/p16/RB-E2F-DREAM repressional targets in this ...

When injured, cells have well-regulated responses to promote healing. These include a long-studied self-destruction process that cleans up dead and damaged cells as well as a more recently identified ...

This video of a so-called HeLa cell dividing demonstrates how sensitive the cell division process is. While all is going well at the beginning of the video, as the clip nears its end you can see the ...

Bone implants often fail to fully integrate with surrounding tissue, limiting their effectiveness in regeneration. A natural but often overlooked cellular process could hold the key to better outcomes ...
