Subcellular lipid composition and transport significantly influence the physiological and pathological functions of both cells and organelles. However, lipid transport and turnover between organelles ...

Although we know a great deal about the subcellular locations of most proteins, our knowledge of where most RNAs localize within cells remains limited. As RNA subcellular localization determines the ...

Human cells are organized across a spatial hierarchy of components, ranging from small protein complexes at the scale of nanometres to large condensates, compartments and organelles at the scale of ...

Organelles in cells were originally often independent cells, which were incorporated by host cells and lost their independence in the course of evolution. A team of biologists headed by Professor Dr ...

In this article, the researchers introduce AO-FIDT, a novel long-term, high-spatiotemporal-resolution 3D fluorescence and intensity diffraction tomography microscopy technique. This method employs an ...

Hyperspectral imaging has provided an insight into how cells organize and prioritize organelle growth. As cells grow, their organelles also need to grow. But do all the organelles grow at the same ...

The discovery of an unknown organelle inside our cells could open the door to new treatments for devastating inherited diseases. The organelle, a type of specialized structure, has been dubbed a ...

A breakthrough in imaging technology promises to transform our understanding of the inner workings of living cells, and provide insights into a wide range of diseases. "It's like taking an airplane ...

Think back to that basic biology class you took in high school. You probably learned about organelles, those little “organs” inside cells that form compartments with individual functions. For example, ...

Diamond nanoparticles containing nitrogen-vacancy centers can now monitor cellular metabolism in real time, targeting specific organelles while tracking particle movement inside living cells.
