Imagine cells navigating through a complex maze, guided by chemical signals and the physical landscape of their environment.

New studies show that astrocytes, long thought to be support cells in the brain, are crucial intermediaries for relaying messages to neurons.

Auxin is the first plant hormone—or "phytohormone"—ever ... Scientists have discovered, for the first time, how root cells respond to their complex soil environment, revealing that roots ...

A team of scientists from BGI-Research, Southern University of Science and Technology and other institutions has unveiled the most detailed single-cell map of a plant ever created, providing new ...

Plant cells are surrounded by an intricately structured protective coat called the cell wall. It’s built of cellulose microfibrils intertwined with polysaccharides like hemicellulose or pectin.

This can happen because shoots develop from three distinct layers of stem cells at their tip, one of which forms the skin of the plant. By chance, shoots from a graft junction can end up with a ...

The image sequences provide new insights into how this cell structure forms, which could lead to innovations in plant-derived products such as renewable biofuels. Cell walls are made mostly of ...

In a groundbreaking study on the synthesis of cellulose – a major constituent of all plant cell walls – a team of Rutgers University-New Brunswick researchers has captured images of the ...

This was a mighty challenge. The cells kept dying. Paleontologist Kyoko Hagino of Kochi University tried for twelve years until she finally cracked it with a cousin of the original organism.

First Solar is a thin-film solar PV manufacturer with a plant near Chennai, while Waaree specializes in crystalline silicon-based PV cells. According to a source, perovskite material can be ...

The human body is interconnected with cell-to-cell communication to orchestrate an effective immune response. Plant cells are organized in a rigid, static order resembling a brick wall due to their ...

Both cell and module capacity will be focused on producing n-type TOPCon technology using rectangular solar cells. Image: Amp Energy India. Indian solar module manufacturer Solex Energy has ...
