For immune cells, the actin cytoskeleton is more than a structural scaffold. Immune cells can migrate to sites of infection ...
Our bodies are made up of countless cells, and each one is enclosed by a thin layer called the cell membrane. This membrane ...
The cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells contains an elaborate filamentous protein meshwork — the cytoskeleton — which comprises three distinct but integrated fibrous polymers: filamentous actin (F-actin; ...
Scientists at Feinberg are reshaping scientific understanding of the cell's tiniest components—structures once thought to be ...
Cell membranes in our body relies on membrane viscosity to transport membranes and carry-out cellular functions. But ...
A cell’s ability to change shape depends on its actin cytoskeleton — a dense, dynamic network of branched filaments beneath ...
Our bodies are made up of countless cells, and each one is enclosed by a thin layer called the cell membrane. This membrane ...
In Alzheimer’s disease, Hameroff says, scientists don’t know whether the microtubules disintegrate and release the tau or whether the tau falls off because of a malfunction that weakens the bond. The ...
This important study demonstrates that ocular organoids can generate both retina and lens through a non-canonical, "inside-out" morphogenetic route. The work is solid, with well-designed experiments ...
Blueberries are rich in antioxidants, particularly anthocyanins, which helps fight oxidative stress and reduce inflammation in the kidneys. Having blueberries regularly can help slow down the ...
GFP knockin mouse tissue and ultra-fresh synaptonerosomes indicate that the postsynaptic density is a not a conserved feature of glutamatergic synapses in the mouse brain.
