An international research team has uncovered a surprising way compartments within cells work together to defend themselves ...

Researchers have created over 400 distinct types of human nerve cells in vitro, vastly expanding the diversity available for ...

Some mammals are capable of hibernating during periods of low food availability in an effort to conserve energy and survive.

The Chan Zuckerberg Initiative (CZI) reports its latest AI model aimed at helping researchers better understand how cells behave by focusing on the key networks that control cell behavior, making ...

Nerves look blue in the reconstructed view of a genetically engineered mouse (left) whose neurons produce a fluorescent ...

For instance, white blood cells in humans can survive for up to 86 hours postmortem. Meanwhile skeletal muscle cells in mice have been regrown as late as 14 days after death.

Rats exhibit significant recovery of locomotor function following incomplete spinal cord injuries, albeit with altered gait expression and reduced speed and stepping frequency. These changes likely ...

The neuron theory There was, however, a tissue that seemed to belie cell theory — nervous tissue. Because of its softness and fragility, it was difficult to handle and susceptible to deterioration.

Ferroelectric field-effect transistor (FeFET)-based circuit implementation mimicking FitzHugh-Nagumo neuron is proposed in this work. The proposed circuit is shown to mimic biological neuron ...

Stanford researchers discovered that dialing down an overactive enzyme, LRRK2, can regrow lost cellular “antennae” in key ...

Cell-to-cell communication (CCC) plays important roles in multicellular organisms. The identification of communication between cancer cells themselves and one between cancer cells and normal cells in ...
