Mitochondria are essential for cell survival, repair, and adaptation. Not only do they generate most of the energy needed ...

Cells manage a wide range of functions in their tiny package — growing, moving, housekeeping, and so on — and most of those functions require energy. But how do cells get this energy in the first ...

Your body is made up of trillions of cells, and they are the foundation of everything—from energy levels to digestion, brain function, and movement. When your cells function efficiently, your body ...

A recent study by the University of Bonn and University Hospital Bonn and the University of Freiburg shows that the ...

Single-cell analysis is a ubiquitous laboratory technique that allows researchers to probe the myriad biomolecular states of cells. Single-cell assays can reveal gene and protein expression patterns, ...

BAP31 is a ubiquitously expressed transmembrane protein predominantly localised within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), where it functions as a molecular chaperone and sorting factor. It plays a ...

A team of researchers led by Dr. Kim V. Narry, director of the Center for RNA Research at the Institute for Basic Science (IBS), has uncovered a key cellular mechanism that affects the function of ...

Other cells, such as glial cells, support the function of neurons. Neuroscience has often painted glial cells as the glue that holds neurons together, but glial cells can also be helpful in promoting ...

Mitochondrial transplantation is an emerging technique aimed at restoring cellular energy production in diseases marked by ...
