Cellular membranes not only constitute a barrier, but they also accommodate a plethora of different molecules for sensing and ...

Strokes lead to irreversible damage to the brain and are one of the most common causes of dependency or death. As the cellular reactions to a cerebral infarction are not yet fully understood, there ...

A new review highlights the pivotal role of LSD1 (lysine-specific demethylase 1) in regulating critical cellular processes and its implications for human diseases. This article sheds light on how post ...

Despite impressive innovations in medicine, most advanced-stage cancers still carry a grim prognosis. Developing more ...

In certain contexts, the Notch receptor may participate in “reverse signaling,” influencing neighboring cells directly.

Phosphoinositides are phosphorylated derivatives of phosphatidylinositol that reside at the cytosolic leaflet of cellular membranes and act as pivotal signalling molecules in plant cells. Through the ...

A buildup of a structural protein called F-actin inside aging brain cells appears to cripple the cellular waste-clearing machinery that keeps neurons healthy, according to a study in Drosophila fruit ...

To study biological processes, scientists often take snapshots of the molecules in cells, such as proteins and nucleotides, at specific points in time. In spatial biology, they can leverage molecular ...

Cyanobacteria, an ancient lineage of bacteria that perform photosynthesis, have been found to regulate their genes using the same physics principle used in AM radio transmission. Cyanobacteria, an ...
