Embryonic development is one of the most dynamic biological processes in nature. Cells and tissues organize and reorganize ...

Cells are typically studied outside the body under controlled laboratory conditions. However, conventional flat cell culture ...

University of Oregon neuroscientists have identified a group of brain cells that essentially act as a "disappointment meter," ...

Stanford scientists have discovered a new type of immune cell that kills surrounding cells via explosion—a cellular ...

Cells are the smallest unit of life and the building blocks for all organisms. Each component of a cell has its own function. Animal and plant cells differ and they have similarities. Nucleus, cell ...

Scientists discovered that leucine, a common amino acid in food, can boost cellular energy and may help explain cancer and ...

In pursuit of a deeper understanding of cellular life, biologists use patterns in data as a springboard for probing specific elements in complex systems. Delete a gene here; express a protein there; ...

University of Virginia School of Medicine scientists have revealed how mistakes in the final step of cell division can have dire consequences for developing brain cells. The findings offer important ...

Organisms are made up of cells. Most organisms are multicellular and have cells that are specialised to do a particular job. Microscopes are needed to study cells in detail. In this video, Greg Foot ...

Vitamin B2, or riboflavin, is a necessary nutrient for normal body function, energy production, and cell repair.
