Differences in kinetics of retinal output signals originate at least in part from differences in synaptic output from distinct bipolar cell types.

RIKEN researchers have discovered how right-handed molecules in our cells can give rise to cells that are not symmetrical ...

Many biological processes are regulated by electricity—from nerve impulses to heartbeats to the movement of molecules in and ...

Creating mini mitochondria factories helped recharge damaged cells in a dish, providing proof-of-concept work that could pave ...

A growing number of new studies have found that, at least for some cells, death isn’t the end, but the beginning of something wholly unexpected.

When killer T cells of our immune system divide, they normally undergo asymmetric cell division (ACD): Each daughter cell ...

Unlike our organs, cell organelles such as mitochondria are not fixed in place, but when, where, how, and why organelles move ...
