As we age, our ability to maintain healthy blood and a strong immune system gradually declines, largely because hematopoietic ...

How does blood age? A new study identifies the MLKL protein as a non-lethal driver of hematopoietic stem cell aging via ...

Cells are not isolated units; they continuously exchange proteins, genetic material, and even entire organelles with their ...

Cells naturally exchange cytoplasmic components like proteins, RNA, and mitochondria, but scientists lack tools to control such transfers in living cells. Now, researchers in Japan have developed a ...

Shanshan Liu and Mark Gad developed a liposome-based transport assay to characterize SLC33A1 transport activity. (Credit: ...

Researchers develop a platform that uses nanotechnology to safely and reliably exchange intracellular material.

Scientists transplant photosynthetic nanoparticles into rats and rabbits with degenerative diseases to boost energy, restore ...

Once viewed only as power generators, mitochondria are now understood to play a role in mental illness. Their ability to ...

Cells aren’t as passive as scientists once thought—they actively create internal currents to move proteins quickly and efficiently. These “cellular winds” push materials to the front of the cell, ...

Researchers at Oregon Health & Science University have identified a previously unknown system inside cells that works like ...

If scientists could shrink themselves to microscopic size and take a journey through the human body—like the submarine crew ...
