Behind age-related cognitive decline lies a little-known biological phenomenon: our neural stem cells, those neuron factories, don't switch off randomly. Singaporean researchers have just ...

Multicellularity is one of the most profound phenomena in biology, and relies on the ability of a single cell to reorganize itself into a complex organism. It underpins the diversity in the animal ...

When a cell divides, it performs a feat of microscopic choreography—duplicating its DNA and depositing it into two new cells.

The London biotech will develop small-molecule therapies to target a pathway some cancer cells use to lengthen their life ...

Over the past two decades, researchers have learned that DNA inside the cell nucleus naturally folds into a network of ...

Early embryonic cell division in large, yolk-rich cells has long defied traditional models of cytokinesis. New research reveals that instead of relying on a fully closed contractile ring, cells can ...

Cell division is an essential process for all life on earth, yet the exact mechanisms by which cells divide during early embryonic development have remained elusive – particularly for egg-laying ...

Researchers at the Max Delbrück Center and the University of Oxford have found that a cellular housekeeping function called autophagy—by which cell components are broken down and recycled—plays a ...

Membrane remodeling by ESCRT-III proteins is a fundamental and conserved process across the tree of life. The archaeal ESCRT-III-based cell division system (Cdv) drives cytokinesis in many archaeal ...

This study presents a useful method based on flow cytometry to study partitioning noise during cell division. The methods, data and analysis support the claims of the authors is convincing. This work ...
