Cilia are evolutionarily conserved, microtubule-based organelles that project from the surface of most eukaryotic cells and play a central role in sensing ...
An implantable scaffold and magnetic probes capture circulating tumor cells directly in the bloodstream, eliminating over 90% of captured cells in rabbits and goats.
A team from the Würzburg Institute of Experimental Biomedicine I and the Rudolf Virchow Center (RVZ) has fundamentally changed our understanding of platelet biology with a study published in the ...
Brazilian researchers have identified previously unknown forms of a protein linked to breast cancer. The discovery ...
Precise methods for shredding or repairing and replacing specific cancer-causing proteins in a malignant cell, developed at ...
Single-cell transcriptomics identifies three discrete mouse trabecular meshwork subtypes and demonstrates that an Lmx1b glaucoma mutation drives mitochondrial dysfunction and elevated intraocular ...
Do you know what the universal blood type is? Apparently, only one in 10 Americans do. (It’s O-negative, by the way.) How ...
Scientists suggest increasing what is understood about exocytosis could one day inform many fields of applied science.
Lysosomes are the recycling centers of human cells. Larger molecules are broken down inside the membrane-enclosed vesicles. Malfunctions can lead to neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's.
Researchers decipher the function of an ion channel involved in cellular degradation processes and create new possibilities for Parkinson’s therapies.
A research team of the University Medical Center Mainz has succeeded in observing for the first time how G protein-coupled ...
