Researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign have built a computer simulation that tracks the entire life cycle of a living cell in four dimensions, capturing how the genetically minimal ...

International research team presents new imaging technique to make lipids in cellular membranes visible and show how they are ...

A set of new imaging tools now allows researchers to see how specific fat molecules, called phospholipids, are distributed ...

A simulated cell in the early stages of division. Left half shows membrane (green cubes), and ribosomes (yellow/purple) ...

X-Cell generalizes to new biological contexts and breaks barriers as the first scaling law demonstrator in the virtual cell domain.

The development of the vascular system is essential for embryonic development, including processes such as angiogenesis. Angiogenesis plays a critical role in many normal physiological and ...

We established that Onsager’s principle of reciprocity is violated for the cell model of an ion–exchange membrane —the coupled cross kinetic coefficients are not equal. It is crucial when considering ...

Scientists have uncovered new details about how cells manage the distribution of lipids in their cell membrane. These lipids, known as phospholipids, are arranged in a bilayer of membranes, regulating ...

Researchers shifted the focus to the internal properties of the membrane itself, specifically its viscosity, highlighting its critical role in controlling deformation and dynamics during essential ...

Nanoparticles built from red blood cell membranes and loaded with a sound-sensitive dye kill liver cancer cells when ...
