While humans can regularly replace certain cells, like those in our blood and gut, we cannot naturally regrow most other parts of the body. For example, when the tiny sensory hair cells in our inner ...

An international research team has uncovered a surprising way compartments within cells work together to defend themselves ...

A cell moves into another cell, bringing benefits but also problems, setting off a complex cascade. And then, McBride says, “all this stuff blooms and blossoms.” ...

Peering deep into the cellular universe: Allen Institute researchers map cell parts in 3D. by Charlotte Schubert on January 10, 2023 at 8:37 am January 10, 2023 at 8:44 am.

Now researchers are taking a retrospective look at older data in search of these elusive cell parts. Organelles are microscopic structures inside of cells that perform specialized functions, ...

Some two dozen biotech developers of PROTACs, molecular glues and other types of protein-degrading drugs have sprung up over ...

In contrast, Nanolive’s technology detects the physical refractive index of the different cell parts with resolution far beyond the diffraction limit (see Nobel prize 2014 for chemistry). As the ...

NIST is also collaborating with the J. Craig Venter Institute on the "minimal cell," a stripped-down synthetic cell. Instead of multiple synthetic parts and components, only its genome is synthesized.

When that happens, the parts become junk or litter inside a healthy cell. Autophagy cleans out the junk so new healthy cells can be created. “We constantly have autophagy going on,” explains ...
