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

Proteins are the molecular machines of cells. They are produced in protein factories called ribosomes based on their ...

These include stress granules and proteasome storage granules (PSGs). In the past, these membraneless organelles were only visible as “droplets” using a fluorescence microscope. Now, researchers from ...

In A Nutshell As cells age, they deliberately shrink a major internal structure called the endoplasmic reticulum. This downsizing happens early in adulthood and shifts cells away from protein ...

Astronomers use the term dark energy to refer to energy in the universe that is unaccounted for by ordinary matter but ...

Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have characterized how cellular senescence—a biological process in which aging cells change how they function—is associated with human brain ...

In its effort to correlate genomic structure with gene function, the 4D Nucleome Consortium (4DN), led by Job Dekker, Ph.D., at UMass Chan Medical School, has extensively mapped and analyzed the three ...

Explore the connection between neurodegeneration and cellular senescence in understanding brain structure and ageing.

Advancements in spatial proteomics enable detailed tissue mapping, linking protein localization to disease mechanisms and ...

A research team from the Wuhan National Laboratory for Optoelectronics (WNLO) and the School of Optical and Electronic ...

In a recent study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), researchers at the Texas A&M University Health Science Center (Texas A&M Health) identify a novel RNA ...
