The research is conducted by a team from the Division of Life Science at HKUST, led by doctoral student Mr. QIU Hua (left) and RGC Postdoctoral Fellow Dr. WU Xiandeng (right). Researchers at the Hong ...

A new international study led by Prof. Carmit Levy of the Department of Human Genetics and Biochemistry at the Gray Faculty of Medical & Health Sciences at Tel Aviv University finds that melanoma ...

Modern cells are complex chemical entities with cytoskeletons, finely regulated internal and external molecules, and genetic ...

Scientists suggest increasing what is understood about exocytosis could one day inform many fields of applied science.

Researchers from the Germans Trias i Pujol Research Institute (IGTP) have published a review analyzing the therapeutic potential of extracellular vesicles derived from mesenchymal stem cells to ...

Though originally thought of as strictly a waste disposal system, extracellular vesicles (EVs) have been shown to have myriad cell communication functions. Recent research has resulted in a deeper ...

Researchers have new insight into the tiny packages that cells use to move molecules, a structure that is key to cellular metabolism, drug delivery and more. Florida State University researchers have ...

Researchers at the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC) have created the world’s simplest artificial cell capable of chemical navigation, migrating toward specific substances like living ...

Cells have a clever way called clathrin-mediated endocytosis to transport cargos like growth factors across the cell membrane and into the cell. Researchers used a sophisticated fluorescence ...

After it fills with cargo, the pit pinches off to form a clathrin-coated, membrane-bound vesicle inside the cell, which then proceeds to its proper destination. In cultured cells, hundreds of these ...
