Cells have always hummed with activity. They make their own energy, package it into molecules like ATP, and spend it ...

A trio of mRNA molecules could help guard against the harmful effects of aging on immune cells, a study in mice finds. A new ...

A new kind of microscope is giving scientists a way to watch life inside cells with a clarity that feels almost unfair.

Researchers have developed experimental compounds that make cells burn more calories by subtly tweaking how mitochondria ...

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 ...

Neoantigens are unique markers that distinguish only cancer cells. By adding B cell reactivity, cancer vaccines can move ...

Researchers from Kyushu University have developed an innovative computational method, called ddHodge, that can reconstruct ...

Gut support cells communicate with surprising precision – like brain neurons – using tiny extensions to send instructions to the stem cells responsible for maintaining and healing the intestine. The ...

For the first time, high-resolution time-lapse videos of tiny bits of living plants show how they assemble their protective cell walls, researchers report March 21 in Science Advances. The image ...

Humans aren't the only biological systems capable of breaking generational cycles: The cells that make us are, too. New research shows that cells detect when their parent had difficulty dividing and ...

Over the past year, most of your body has replaced itself cell by cell. What can we learn from other animals’ dramatic feats ...

Imagine tiny fists punching their way through your body. For some cancer patients, this may be the reality. Melanoma cells can mechanically tunnel their way through tissue using fleshy membrane ...
