Researchers have provided a surprisingly simple explanation for the mechanism and features of the "Golgi apparatus" -- a structure that has baffled generations of scientists. The new model developed ...

Don't know how something works? Why not try to build a copy anyway? That's the sort of crazy and amazing thinking that allowed Dr. Richard Linhardt and other researchers at the Rensselaer Polytechnic ...

Our cells carry out hundreds of thousands of important functions every day, all of which are carefully orchestrated at a microscopic scale. However, the precise mechanisms that influence the luminal ...

Two independent groups have applied fluorescence tagging and advanced video microscopy techniques to obtain visual evidence for the Golgi cisternal maturation model. The Golgi apparatus—the organelle ...

Researchers have identified that the status of the T-cell Golgi apparatus is a key indicator of performance in cancer immunotherapy approaches. A group of researchers working at the Medical University ...

A UTHealth Houston-led team has identified a promising new avenue to curb the growth and spread of tumors associated with hard-to-treat lung and other cancers.

The Golgi body (or Golgi complex, apparatus), and Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) are both organelles found in the majority of eukaryotic cells. They are very closely associated and show both similarities ...
