The discovery that tissues use electricity to expel unhealthy cells is part of a surge of renewed interest in the currents ...
When the cell's recycling stations, the lysosomes, start leaking, it can become dangerous. Toxic waste risks spreading and ...
Researchers have determined that condensates are electrically charged droplets that can induce voltage changes across the ...
Electricity has always been central to how life works, from the firing of neurons to the beating of the heart, but new ...
Cells have always hummed with activity. They make their own energy, package it into molecules like ATP, and spend it ...
Our cells are surrounded by a fragile membrane that's only 5 nanometers thick, 1/20 of a soap bubble. Cells are easily damaged by physiological activities, including muscle contraction and tissue ...
Scientists have uncovered new details about how cells manage the distribution of lipids in their cell membrane. These lipids, known as phospholipids, are arranged in a bilayer of membranes, regulating ...
Researchers have discovered that damage to the cell membrane promotes cellular senescence, or cell aging. Our cells are surrounded by a fragile membrane that's only 5 nanometers thick, 1/20 of a soap ...
Researchers shifted the focus to the internal properties of the membrane itself, specifically its viscosity, highlighting its critical role in controlling deformation and dynamics during essential ...
