Scientists have long known that cellular membranes vary in thickness, but measuring those differences inside actual cells has ...
Cell membrane integrity is vital for the survival and function of tissues across biological systems. The rapid repair of membrane disruptions is mediated by specialised mechanisms that mobilise ...
(MEMPHIS, Tenn. – December 5, 2025) When a cell receives a message from outside, it generates a molecule called cyclic AMP (cAMP) to relay this message. To ensure the signal reaches the correct ...
To stay healthy, our cells rely on a self-cleaning mechanism that removes defective or unnecessary components. This process, ...
