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 ...

This graphic illustrates paracrine adhesion signaling on small extracellular vesicles, which secretes a protein called galectin-3, which promotes endocytosis so the vesicle can be absorbed into the ...

While extracellular signals can be captured with less invasive methods, they do not provide much detail about the cell's electrical activity. "It is like listening to a conversation through a wall–you ...

Natural killer (NK) cells are pivotal in the innate immune response against cancer and viral infections, with their presence in tumors correlating to better patient outcomes in various cancers.

G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are expressed on the surface of cells and regulate a range of important functions. Because they are involved in so many sensory and physiological processes, ...

Extracellular vesicles (EVs), including exosomes, microvesicles, apoptotic bodies, and many other EV subtypes, have emerged ...

SAN MATEO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--EpiBiologics, a biotechnology company building a next-generation antibody-based protein degradation platform for membrane and extracellular drug targets, launched ...

Scientists have long known that cellular membranes vary in thickness, but measuring those differences inside actual cells has ...
