Unlike our organs, cell organelles such as mitochondria are not fixed in place, but when, where, how, and why organelles move ...

Cells may generate their own electrical signals through microscopic membrane motions. Researchers show that active molecular ...

Researchers have developed a theoretical framework that shows how living cell membranes can generate electricity from ...

Researchers shifted the focus to the internal properties of the membrane itself, specifically its viscosity, highlighting its critical role in controlling deformation and dynamics during essential ...

When a cell receives a message from outside, it generates a molecule called cyclic AMP (cAMP) to relay this message. To ...

A hidden “jack-in-the-box” mechanism inside T cells may hold the key to unlocking more powerful cancer immunotherapies.

Researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center have identified a protein that causes human cell membranes to break open in a ...

One of the most exciting advances in cancer treatments in the past decade is the development of T cell immunotherapies, in ...

We know that the process of viral uptake into cells begins with interactions between proteins hemagglutinin and neuraminidase ...

Scientists have discovered that T cell receptors activate through a hidden spring-like motion that had never been seen before ...
