An international group of researchers led by Pompeu Fabra University has discovered the nanomachine that controls ...

Scientists have transformed enigmatic cell structures, called vaults, into storage units for messenger-RNA molecules made in ...

Biology has always been an unruly science. Cells divide when they want to. Genes switch on and off like temperamental lights.

Inflammation has to fight pathogens fast—but it can't get out of control. Researchers at the German Cancer Research Center ...

Inside every living cell, proteins and membranes are in constant motion, reshaping, colliding, and flexing as they keep an ...

This past year, we explored a lot of new cell biology research—from cancer to plants to microbes, and more! It’s hard to believe what can fit in a year. Yet as we say goodbye to 2025, we want to take ...

Cells do more than carry out chemical reactions. New theoretical work suggests they may also generate usable electrical ...

Think back to that basic biology class you took in high school. You probably learned about organelles, those little “organs” inside cells that form compartments with individual functions. For example, ...

In the battle against type 1 diabetes (T1D), one researcher at the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) is leading a ...

Spatial proteomics is the study of the spatial distribution of the proteins within cells and tissues. The subcellular localization of proteins is intrinsic to cellular function, making spatial ...

The FDA approval of denileukin diftitox (Lymphir) marked a significant shift in this paradigm. As a first-in-class immunotoxin, it employs a dual-action mechanism: directly targeting interleukin-2 (IL ...
