Immune cells protect and heal the human body. In medicine, they are specifically activated through biochemical reactions to treat certain diseases. Researchers at the Helmholtz-Zentrum Hereon, ETH ...
Scientists found a hidden 'gatekeeper' in brain cells that may explain—and help stop—Alzheimer's damage.
Some of the body's cells stay put for life, while others are free to roam. To move, these migratory cells rely on filopodia—sensitive, finger-like protrusions that reach out from the cell membrane ...
How the Cell's Internal Framework Shapes Brain Development Actin plays a central role in the cytoskeleton, the internal framework that gives cells structure and helps move materials inside them. In ...
A nerve cell resembles a vast tree with branches that communicate with thousands of other cells. To function, it depends on a ...
