Young adults with depression exhibit unusual cellular energy patterns in both their brains and blood, characterized by cells ...

By simulating the life cycle of a minimal bacterial cell—from DNA replication to protein translation to metabolism and cell ...

After a heart attack, the heart struggles to recoup and maintain energy. One third of patients develop heart failure as a ...

Microtubules are dynamic, tubular polymers composed of αβ-tubulin dimers that form an essential framework within eukaryotic cells. They orchestrate a wide range of cellular functions including ...

Your body is made up of trillions of cells, and they are the foundation of everything—from energy levels to digestion, brain function, and movement. When your cells function efficiently, your body ...

Mitochondria are essential for cell survival, repair, and adaptation. Not only do they generate most of the energy needed ...

For one, white fat is a powerful endocrine organ, releasing hormones like leptin that reduce appetite, as well as adiponectin, which regulates insulin and blood sugar levels. It also cushions organs, ...

Cells manage a wide range of functions in their tiny package — growing, moving, housekeeping, and so on — and most of those functions require energy. But how do cells get this energy in the first ...

Single-cell analysis is a ubiquitous laboratory technique that allows researchers to probe the myriad biomolecular states of cells. Single-cell assays can reveal gene and protein expression patterns, ...

Other cells, such as glial cells, support the function of neurons. Neuroscience has often painted glial cells as the glue that holds neurons together, but glial cells can also be helpful in promoting ...

In the rapidly evolving field of drug discovery, single-cell analysis has become an invaluable tool for understanding cellular heterogeneity and molecular pathways. However, traditional single-cell ...

Researchers at the Kennedy Institute of Rheumatology have found that physically resisting the formation of an immunological synapse actually promotes a stronger immune response. The findings could ...
