Researchers at the University College London are transforming yeast leftover from brewing beer into edible "scaffolds" for cultivated meat — also known as lab-grown meat — thus offering a more ...

MIT researchers have found that tiny DNA loops persist even as cells divide, challenging the idea that the genome resets during mitosis. These structures may explain how cells retain genetic ...

Human cells are extremely small and tightly packed – at about 20 micrometers across, roughly one-fifth the width of a human hair, each cell contains a dense mix of proteins, organelles, and molecular ...

Abstract: The air-cooled proton exchange membrane fuel cell is widely used in unmanned aerial vehicle since its small size and high efficiency. The bipolar plate structure is an important factor ...

Scientists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and Northwestern University identified a previously unknown treatment opportunity for sickle cell disease and β-thalassemia. The discovery, ...

Before cells can divide by mitosis, they first need to replicate all of their chromosomes, so that each of the daughter cells can receive a full set of genetic material. Scientists have until now ...

Researchers from the University of Chicago (IL, USA) have reported that unstable, or ‘noisy’, chromatin enables cells to take on different roles in the body. This flexibility can support the immune ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. A new discovery inside your cells may change how scientists understand disease and design future treatments. Researchers have ...

Migration of cell populations is a fundamental process in morphogenesis and disease. The mechanisms of collective cell migration of epithelial cell populations have been well studied. It remains ...

Cell biology is a world of constant motion and hidden structures. Much of what we know about cells comes from decades of research using microscopes, stains, and models. Yet, even in this well-charted ...

Even after decades of peering into cells, biologists are still finding surprises. In a twist, researchers at the University of Virginia and the National Institutes of Health uncovered a new organelle, ...
