cells and their structures (nucleus, mitochondria, chloroplast, etc.). Learn the functions of each organelle and the differences between plant and animal cells. Study plant and animal tissues ...

One of the ultimate goals of biological research is to understand the multiscale organization of the human cell and its relationship to biological function and human disease. As much of cell ...

By mapping the subcellular architecture and protein interactions within cells, researchers can better understand how mutations contribute to pediatric cancers and other conditions.

This work has enabled them to pinpoint potential new targets for cancer therapy. The DNA of human cells consists of a sequence of about 3.1 billion building blocks. Cells go to great lengths to ...

Developing new medications can take years. But computational biologist Aviv Regev says AI-powered cell mapping is transforming the process—helping to create life-saving drugs in much less time.

Human cell models may never be as good as the real thing, but we need these models to be as close as possible to understand how diseases develop and progress, and whether treatments are effective.

Cardiac fibroblasts (CF) can become activated and produce excessive extracellular matrix, contributing to fibrotic remodeling ...

Logue and Moustafa Khalaf, an SDSU research scientist, played a critical role in the research process by confirming and quantifying cyanide production in human cells. "The identification of ...

Scientists examined microscopic blobs of protein found in human cells has discovered that some morph from an almost honey-like substance to a hard candy-like solid. These mysterious droplets ...

Scientists have attempted to map the human cell since the first microscope was invented more than 400 years ago. But many components of the cell still remain uncharted. " We know each of the ...
