Mitochondrial dysfunction is associated with various chronic diseases and cancers, including neurodegenerative diseases and ...

Electricity has always been central to how life works, from the firing of neurons to the beating of the heart, but new ...

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

Living cells may generate electricity through the natural motion of their membranes. These fast electrical signals could play ...

Mitochondria are very well known as the powerhouses of the cell. Generally speaking, all eukaryotes, including plants, fungi, and animals, are made of cells that contain mitochondria. These organelles ...

Membranes are constantly bending as a result of heat fluctuating randomly through the cell. In theory, any voltage produced ...

Using DNA and proteins, scientists have created new synthetic cells that act like living cells. Blurring the line between artificial and living materials, these cells can be reprogrammed to perform ...

Researchers have developed a new technique to view living mammalian cells. The team used a powerful laser, called a soft X-ray free electron laser, to emit ultrafast pulses of illumination at the ...

The value measured by the 3D Cell Explorer is not fluorescence intensity of an exogenous molecule like with most optical microscopes. In contrast, Nanolive’s technology detects the physical refractive ...
