Fatty acid biosynthesis is an energy-intensive biosynthetic pathway, and the production of the building blocks for membrane phospholipids is precisely regulated to match the rate of cell division.

You can increase white blood cells (WBCs) by taking certain medications and eating immune-boosting foods, like yogurt, lean protein foods, antioxidant-rich vegetables, and more. Maintaining a normal ...

If you're keen to save on your setup, the best membrane keyboards can help you stay nimble on the battlefield without breaking the bank. These decks won't hold up to their premium mechanical ...

"Learning and memory are generally associated with brains and brain cells alone, but our study shows that other cells in the body can learn and form memories, too," explains New York University's ...

In an incredible feat that redefines biological boundaries, scientists have successfully engineered animal cells that are capable of photosynthesis. This breakthrough, led by Professor Sachihiro ...

It feels like the Splinter Cell remake has been on its way for a decent while now, which isn't helped by the fact it's been over two years since we heard anything official about the game.

You probably learned about organelles, those little 'organs' inside cells that form compartments with individual functions. For example, mitochondria produce energy, lysosomes recycle waste and the ...

Membrane-bound organelles were the textbook standard of how scientists thought cells were organized until they realized in the mid-2000s that some organelles don’t need to be wrapped in a membrane.

Cardiomyocytes consist of a complex membrane system that is subjected to high mechanical stress during heart muscle contractions. The so-called T-tubule network within the cells, which consists of ...

This is the true powerhouse of any cell. The mitochondria produce energy for the cells! Both animal and plant cells have endoplasmic reticulum. This membrane helps form networks, and synthesize ...
