All complex life on Earth, including plants and animals, are made up of eukaryotic cells, which are more sophisticated than ...

BioFlux shear flow systems provide researchers with the power to introduce physiological and pathological shear flow, along ...

Certain cancers can cause high white blood cell (WBCs) counts, or in some cases, low levels. WBCs, also called leukocytes, are immune system cells that fight pathogens in your body. A high white blood ...

Thanks to its mitochondrion, this eukaryotic ancestor had enough energy ... it was deemed energetically impossible for a prokaryotic cell to be capable of endocytosis, as the energy source of ...

Now, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) Assistant Professor Michael Lukey has found a way to deprive cancer cells of both a vital nutrient and their backup supply. In lab experiments with breast ...

Recently, adoptive T-cell therapy in particular has developed into an effective treatment tool. Here, certain of the body's own white blood cells, the T cells, are modified in such a way that they ...

For years, Amanda Smith and her husband were jolted awake at night by a buzz-buzz-beep — an alarm warning that her blood sugar was too high or too low. She would reach for juice boxes stored in ...

Plants and animals are made of eukaryotic cells, which are thought to have evolved from an endosymbiotic event in which a prokaryotic cell absorbed another, which went onto become the mitochondrion.

A breakthrough at Rice University has led to the development of more stable and efficient perovskite solar cells, using a templating method with two-dimensional perovskites, promising lower-cost, ...
