Ohio State University scientists study extracellular vesicles' movement in tumors, suggesting short-range cell communication.

Gut support cells communicate with surprising precision – like brain neurons – using tiny extensions to send instructions to the stem cells responsible for maintaining and healing the intestine. The ...

Living organisms are made up of hundreds of thousands of cells that cooperate to create the organs and systems that breathe, eat, move, and think. Now, researchers from Japan have developed a new way ...

Researchers at Johns Hopkins Medicine say they have used a "zap-and-freeze" technology to watch hard-to-see brain cell communications in living brain tissue from mice and humans. Findings from the new ...

“Mitochondria function as signaling platforms within cells,” explains Winklhofer. “They link metabolic states with inflammatory or stress responses, thereby influencing the cell’s fundamental ...

A new study describes a key molecular mechanism that explains how cells exchange information through extracellular vesicles (EVs), small particles with great therapeutic potential. The results, ...
