Examples of planar soft cells with two sharp corners in nature and in architecture. Left column: geometric soft cells. Middle columns: natural examples. Right column: examples from the architecture of ...

This could be useful in scenarios where the enzyme's required substrate is not available in the cytosol of your eukaryotic cell type, but is available in the mitochondria (owing to it's similarity to ...

Cancer biology involves complex, dynamic interactions between cancer cells and their tissue microenvironments. Single-cell effects are critical drivers of clinical progression. Chemical and mechanical ...

Using mathematical analysis of patterns of human and animal cell behavior, scientists say they have developed a computer program that mimics the behavior of such cells in any part of the body. Led by ...

A new study reveals evidence of electrical signaling and coordinated behavior in choanoflagellates, the closest living relatives of animals. This elaborate example of cell communication offers key ...

Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy—CAR T for short—has been a major advance in treating blood cancers like leukemia and ...

Researchers have developed a program that simulates human and animal cell behavior, creating digital models of tissues and diseases. The tool, based on mathematical rules and agent-based modeling, can ...

Yasuyuki Fujita has seen first-hand what happens when cells stop being polite and start getting real. He caught a glimpse of this harsh microscopic world when he switched on a cancer-causing gene ...
