One of the most well-studied cellular responses is how they react during times of stress, such as when the temperature gets ...

Cells do more than carry out chemical reactions. New theoretical work suggests they may also generate usable electrical ...

Plant cells are surrounded by an intricately structured protective coat called the cell wall. It’s built of cellulose microfibrils intertwined with polysaccharides like hemicellulose or pectin. We ...

What researchers know of human cells is pieced together like a scrapbook full of snapshots: division here, fertilization there, with maybe a bit of differentiation in between. While scientists know ...
