By simulating the life cycle of a minimal bacterial cell—from DNA replication to protein translation to metabolism and cell ...

Mitochondria are essential for cell survival, repair, and adaptation. Not only do they generate most of the energy needed ...

A new study reveals that astrocytes, once dismissed as mere support cells, play a central role in fear memory.

Researchers have developed a capsule-based method that makes it possible to analyse the same cell through multiple experimental steps. The technology overcomes a long-standing limitation in cell ...

A small tweak to mitochondrial energy production led to big gains in health and longevity. Mice engineered to boost a protein that helps mitochondria work more efficiently lived longer and showed ...
