How do we think, feel, remember, or move? These processes involve synaptic transmission, in which chemical signals are ...

A group of researchers at the VIB‑UGent Center for Medical Biotechnology has developed a new platform to isolate and analyze ...

Hemifusomes are fused vesicles, or sacs of fluid, that were previously unknown to exist inside cells. They were discovered ...

It is clear that culture conditions affect the concentration, composition and therapeutic activity of secreted extracellular vesicles. 3-D capillary bioreactors represent the most in vivo like way to ...

By using a synthetic photosensitive amphiphile containing azobenzene (KAON12), we developed a method for the photo-manipulation of lipid membrane morphology, in which the shape of a vesicle can be ...

Cancer stem cells (CSCs) have the capability to initiate tumor, to sustain tumor growth, to maintain the heterogeneity of tumor, and are closely linked to the failure of chemotherapy due to their self ...

Extracellular vesicles have emerged as promising tools in regenerative medicine due to their inherent ability to facilitate intercellular communication and modulate cellular functions. These nanosized ...

Even after decades of research, biologists are still uncovering surprises about the human body. A team of researchers from ...

The cells infected with ΔRΔS contained a greater proportion of red puncta and a larger number of LC3 + bacteria compared to ΔR-infected cells (Fig. 1C). Similarly, transient overexpression of SdeA and ...
