Scientists at EPFL have developed CenSpark, a fluorescent probe that makes centrioles and cilia visible inside living cells, ...

This summer, over 50 researchers in the NSF EMBRIO Institute convened to share their newest findings on cellular signaling and organization that drives wound repair, cellular defense, and organismal ...

Fluorescent probes have transformed modern biology by allowing researchers to tag and visualize individual molecules in ...

For decades, scientists understood inducible nitric oxide synthase, or iNOS, as a one-trick enzyme. Its job was to churn out ...

Cell signaling is crucial for cells to communicate and function correctly. Disruptions in these pathways, caused by genetic mutations or environmental factors, can lead to uncontrolled cell growth, ...

Researchers at Tulane University School of Medicine have discovered that if animal cells gain an extra set of chromosomes, a ...

Cancer cells that accumulate extra copies of their entire chromosome set can start behaving like immune cells, swallowing ...

If we could listen to stem cells closely enough, we might hear them whisper, “mechanosenses tingling.” After all, stem cells sense and react to the physical forces around them, maintaining their ...

For the first time, a stem cell model has produced a structure resembling an early human embryo with a yolk-sac-like structure, from a single starting stem cell population and without direct genetic ...
