The cell's endoplasmic reticulum (ER) plays a central role in protein synthesis, folding, and calcium (Ca²⁺) storage. When ...

Biological membranes of cells and their subunits (organelles) are organized into tiny regions (nanodomains) made up of fats ...

Extracellular vesicles are tiny spheres that cells release to send molecules or messages to other cells, often as a means of seeding cancer elsewhere in the body. In a new study, researchers found ...

Researchers at Aarhus University have built a microscopic needle from DNA that can punch through a cell’s outer membrane and ...

Scientists haven’t had a precise way to arrange and study surface-bound extracellular vesicles and particles (EVPs) as they guide cell behavior. Researchers developed LEVA, which uses patterned ...
