Scientists have long known that cellular membranes vary in thickness, but measuring those differences inside actual cells has ...
Cell membrane integrity is vital for the survival and function of tissues across biological systems. The rapid repair of membrane disruptions is mediated by specialised mechanisms that mobilise ...
Cells do more than carry out chemical reactions. New theoretical work suggests they may also generate usable electrical ...
Human cells are extremely small and tightly packed – at about 20 micrometers across, roughly one-fifth the width of a human ...
When the cell's recycling stations, the lysosomes, start leaking, it can become dangerous. Toxic waste risks spreading and ...
New evidence of electrical power generation on cell membranes could offer insights into how living cells interact with their ...
While our cells are performing some important, basic functions, they can generate compounds known as reactive oxygen species ...
Transverse tubules (T-tubules) play a significant role in muscle contraction. However, the underlying mechanism of their ...
Cells have always hummed with activity. They make their own energy, package it into molecules like ATP, and spend it ...
