Cell membranes are the boundaries of living cells. They are made up of amphiphilic lipids, cholesterol, and membrane proteins arranged in a dynamic bilayer. They regulate signal transduction, ...
Cells may generate their own electrical signals through microscopic membrane motions. Researchers show that active molecular processes can create voltage spikes similar to those used by neurons. These ...
A new, label-free method for identifying aged human cells has been developed. Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University (Japan) have created a new way of telling ‘aged’ human cells apart from ...
