Imagine a world in which engineered cells, plants, tissues and nonliving yet biologically active entities are integrated into our everyday lives and have critical roles in solving grand challenges in ...

The cells lining skin capillaries are constantly sending each other messages—tiny pulses of calcium that help regulate blood ...

The coordination of cell fate specification and functional specialization in multicellular systems arises from dynamic interplays between cell-intrinsic regulatory programs and niche-mediated ...

People communicate with each other, sometimes face to face, sometimes with a text message or phone call. Cells also communicate with each other, sometimes by touching and sometimes by sending signals ...

The body's organs are in constant communication. Fat tissue tells the liver when to store or release energy, the immune ...

New simulator and computational tools generate realistic ‘virtual tissues’ and map cell-to-cell ‘conversations’ from spatial transcriptomics data, potentially accelerating AI-driven discoveries in ...

Researchers at Texas A&M Health and collaborators have developed engineered CRAC channel inhibitory binders that can ...

One of the most important mechanisms is receptor-mediated signaling. A peptide attaches to a specific receptor on the cell surface, which then activates intracellular proteins such as kinases or ...

A 3D rendering showing the internal structure of an animal cell, with several round or wavy structures inside a border. It turns out that the redox state of a cell, such as the animal cell shown, is ...

How Regenerative Therapy May Support Brain Cell Communication in Parkinson's Disease Saint Petersburg, United States - ...

It’s no secret that teenagers love snacks, whether salty or sweet. At West Mesquite High School, AP biology teacher Melinda Evans is using that love of snacks to help her students understand how cells ...
