For the first time, scientists have 3-D printed objects within living cells, including a 10-micrometer long elephant and tiny “barcodes” that could help track individual cells. Remarkably, many of the ...

If measured from beginning to end, the DNA in our cells is too long to fit into the cell's nucleus, explaining why it must be ...

A further understanding of the organelle could pave the way for better treatment of genetic and neurodegenerative diseases.

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

It has been known for several years that abnormal chromosome numbers lead to protein imbalances in the affected cells.

It has been known for several years that abnormal chromosome numbers lead to protein imbalances in the affected cells. Researchers at RPTU have now investigated the detailed effects of such imbalances ...

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute and UCL have shown that genetic messages are misplaced in nerve cells in a model of Alzheimer's disease and frontotemporal dementia. These messages mostly ...

The cytoplasm is a dynamic, self-organizing system spanning scales from organelles to biomolecular condensates and multienzyme assemblies. While enzymatic regulation has traditionally been attributed ...

Researchers have reported growing hearts containing human cells in pig embryos for the first time. The embryos survived for 21 days, and in that time their tiny hearts started beating.
