A cluster of recent studies has sharpened the scientific picture of how T cells switch on, tracking the molecular signals ...
T cell activation—the process by which these key immune defenders recognize threats and mobilize against them—depends on ...
A research team of the University Medical Center Mainz has succeeded in observing for the first time how G protein-coupled receptors in living cells actually respond to activating substances. The ...
Curiosis has a line of Automated Live Cell Imaging Systems called the Celloger series. Using specialized microscopes and labeling procedures, live cell imaging enables real-time observation and ...
Jeffrey Moore lab studies how the microtubule network organizes the contents within cells and how problems can cause diseases ...
When cells experience enough chronic stress, they can stop dividing permanently. In this state of cellular limbo, known as replicative senescence, cells remain alive but no longer proliferate.
Until now, doctors knew hepatic stellate cells mainly as drivers of liver fibrosis. The actual functions of this cell type have hardly been studied to date. Researchers have now determined that ...
Researchers have identified a crucial ion channel, TMEM175, that acts like an overflow valve in the cell’s recycling system.
