Researchers are studying why the energy factories are moving between cells and whether the process can be harnessed to treat cancer and other diseases.

CD8 + T cells are vital in defending against infections and cancer while promoting tissue ... cell formation depends on processes in cellular organelles called mitochondria. Additionally ...

To this end, scientists are creating lipid-based synthetic doppelgängers of cells and organelles to ask fundamental questions about biology. Oskar Staufer, a biophysicist at the Leibniz Institute for ...

In contrast to organelles with a lipid bilayer membrane, membraneless structures are formed through a process known as liquid-liquid phase separation. When it comes to how and why cells create and use ...

Kanazawa University, report in Nature Communications how the targeted suppression of lysosome function may lead to brain ...

Our main focus areas are: Asymmetric cell division: we develop methods to analyze whether stem cells apportion their organelles qualitatively and selectively upon asymmetric divisions and how this ...
