Scientists have uncovered a new way embryonic cells divide when conventional mechanisms fail. Cell division underpins all ...

Electron micrographs show typical microglia in the prefrontal cortex of a 92-year-old healthy female (left) and dark microglia a 91-year-old female patient with Alzheimer’s disease (right). Microglia, ...

Cell division is an essential process for all life on Earth, yet the exact mechanisms by which cells divide during early ...

Polyamines are small molecules naturally present in all cells and are critical in guiding cellular decisions, whereas an alteration in the abundance of these metabolites is invariably observed in ...

Protein aggregates, damaged organelles, and invading bacteria are identified and removed in healthy cells. An international ...

Researchers have uncovered a shared brain cell breakdown mechanism behind Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases, revealing how two different proteins can disrupt neurons in the same devastating way.

Damage to the genetic material of mitochondria – the mitochondrial DNA or mtDNA for short – can lead to diseases such as Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), cardiovascular ...

Cell division is an essential process for all life on earth, yet the exact mechanisms by which cells divide during early ...

A team of researchers has uncovered a key cellular mechanism that affects the function of mRNA vaccines and therapeutics. Their study provides the first comprehensive understanding of how mRNA ...

The cellular changes induced by cold water plunges have been revealed. We’ve all heard about the potential health benefits of cold-water plunges, but what’s actually happening on a cellular level?

Cold water immersion for seven days significantly improves cellular resilience and autophagic function, helping cells manage stress better. This adaptation could enhance health and longevity, ...
