An experiment in lab mice found that certain human gut bacteria can absorb PFAS, commonly called "forever chemicals," until ...

Single-celled organisms called archaea aren't generally thought to cause human disease, but one species has been implicated in colorectal cancer ...

An international research team led by the Helmholtz Center for Infection Research (HZI) has discovered a new strategy used by ...

Researchers from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have solved a 60-year-old mystery in bacterial cell envelope ...

Cambridge scientists discover that certain gut bacteria can absorb and eliminate PFAS, toxic 'forever chemicals' linked to ...

Washington State University researchers have discovered how the bacteria that cause anaplasmosis and Lyme disease hijack cellular processes in ticks to ensure their survival and spread to new hosts, ...

A vivid new image is taking shape in the world of cell biology: Imagine bacteria adhering to the surface of a cell, perhaps at the site of an injury or wound. In response, a white blood cell arrives ...

White blood cells use brute force to dislodge bacteria UC Hoxworth professor receives NIH grant for his lab's biomedical research Date: March 4, 2025 Source: University of Cincinnati Summary: A ...

Explore the wonders of life and your career potential with a BSc (Hons) in Biology with a Year in Professional Practice at the University of Kent. Study ecology, genetics, and cell biology with ...

These experiments showed that the TB bacterium doesn’t follow expected patterns of cell growth. In other bacterial species, growth is exponential, which means cells grow slower when they are smaller.

Since then, researchers have learned a lot about the cell biology underlying these rhythms. But it would take another quarter of a century to connect those same genes to an ability stretching over a ...

This research has highlighted the broad heterogeneity of bacterial cells, even in the same population. While a group of microbes may grow from a single cell, it seems the daughter cells may not always ...
