Research initiated at a UT field station keeps progressing, in good news for the war on this invasive species.

For decades, biologists treated a familiar marine invertebrate as a kind of living afterthought, a translucent tube that ...

Sodium (Na), with an atomic number of 11, has a total of 11 electrons. To determine the number of valence electrons, we need to look at its electron configuration. The electron configuration of sodium ...

In an effort to reveal the inner workings of a protein that serves as a cell's damage detection system, scientists at Johns ...

Cells have an internal skeleton that maintains their structure and also drives their movement. Known as the cytoskeleton, ...

Two recently published studies led by Brazilian scientists reveal the key roles of multifunctional proteins, STIP1 and Maspin ...

Our body's "blood factory" consists of specialized tissue made up of bone cells, blood vessels, nerves and other cell types.

Researchers have created functional brain-like tissue without relying on any animal-derived materials, marking a major step toward more ethical and reproducible neurological research.

This study provides valuable data on the role of Hsd17b7, a gene involved in cholesterol biosynthesis, as a potential regulator of mechanosensory hair cell function. The authors used both zebrafish ...

De novo cholesterol biosynthesis is a key metabolic vulnerability in rhabdomyosarcoma. Its inhibition halts cell ...

Adherens junctions (AJs) meet the dual challenge of maintaining tissue architecture and facilitating cell movement during tissue development and renewal. Across animal species, classic cadherins ...

For the first time, scientists have grown functional, brain-like tissue without using any animal-derived materials or added biological coatings. The development opens the door to more controlled and ...
