The brain’s health depends on more than just its neurons. A complex network of blood vessels and immune cells acts as the brain’s dedicated guardians—controlling what enters, cleaning up waste, and ...

Novel method reveals glucose channeling, charting the fine structure of energy metabolism inside active cells by Alexandra Scammell, Vanderbilt University ...

Researchers in the UK have received approval to conduct the first ever human trials for a stem cell treatment to reverse hearing loss.

For a peripheral nerve to regenerate, it must maintain communication between the neuron's cell body and its long extension—the axon—which in humans can reach more than a meter in length.

Newly Discovered Cell Structure Might Hold Key To Understanding Devastating Genetic Disorders It's been here the whole time.

A previously unknown structure discovered in our cells could pave the way toward new treatments for various genetic disorders. The existence of the organelle—which has been dubbed the ...

Synopsis Alternative splicing of a conserved microexon in the unc-13 synaptic gene is regulated by a pair of cell-specific RNA binding proteins. Microexon-included and microexon-skipped isoforms are ...

A new class of AAVs has arrived. In six coordinated studies published on 21 May across Neuron, Cell, Cell Reports, and Cell Reports Methods, scientists unveil viral vectors fitted with ...

IS formation between CD8 + T cells and target cells is a highly orchestrated process, dominated by a complex interplay of molecular self-assembly events and active cellular rearrangements. IS ...
