This wiring diagram contains 200,000 brain cells and nearly 500 million synapses that sit in a chunk of the visual cortex of the mouse brain that's about the size of one grain of sand. This map has an ...

Although cell-in-cell structure was noted 100 years ago, the molecular mechanisms of ‘entering’ and the destination of cell-in-cell remain largely unclear.

Prokaryotes are unicellular organisms that lack membrane-bound structures. This article details the structure of prokaryotic cells and provides examples of prokaryotic organisms.

Proteins are the workhorses of cells. Learn how their functions are based on their three-dimensional structures, which emerge from a complex folding process.

In a leap forward for genetic and biomedical research, two scientists at the University of Missouri have developed a powerful new artificial intelligence tool that can predict the 3D shape of ...

Eukaryotic cells form the foundation of complex life, their defining feature being the presence of membrane-bound organelles. This article details the structure of eukaryotic cells and provides ...

Miniature models of the brain have revealed a "previously unappreciated" role of microglia, a type of cell found within the ...

How does the collective interplay of many individual cells give rise to a perfectly shaped organism? This question lies at ...

The scientists used AI technology to design proteins that would activate a cell signaling language called Notch, which is ...

UCLA researchers have created miniature stem cell-based organoid models of human lungs, hearts and brains to study how ...

AI-based technique reveals previously unknown cell components that may provide new clues to human development and disease.
