Cells manage a wide range of functions in their tiny package — growing, moving, housekeeping, and so on — and most of those functions require energy. But how do cells get this energy in the first ...

A quick revision guide covering key concepts, biomolecules, cell organelles, and essential NEET-style MCQs to boost exam ...

Researchers at Duke University used CRISPR technologies to discover previously unannotated stretches of DNA in the ‘dark genome’ that are responsible for controlling how cells sense and respond to the ...

Dietary restriction reshapes CD8+ T cell metabolism by increasing ketone body–driven acetyl-CoA production, preventing ...

The immune cell repertoire is composed of many different cell types that are orchestrated in response to infection and other pathogens that enter the body. As a result, the body can defend itself ...

Natural killer (NK) cells are the bodyguards of our immune system. As a first line of defense, they destroy invading pathogens, foreign bodies, and infected cells in early stages, thereby preventing ...

This study shows that vacancy-engineered MoS₂ nanoflowers drive mitochondrial biogenesis in human mesenchymal stem cells by ...

Mitochondria can lose power like batteries, but they can potentially be regenerated—a promising development than can be used ...

Gene regulation is the process by which cells control the expression of their genes, determining when, where, and to what extent each gene is expressed. It is a fundamental mechanism that allows cells ...

Tiny structures inside your cells keep your body alive by turning food into fuel. These structures, called mitochondria, ...

Researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center have identified a protein that causes human cell membranes to break open in a ...
