Lab-grown dopamine cells show early success in Parkinson’s patients, improving movement and offering a new treatment path.

Cells can be thought of as cities, with factories, a transport system, and lots of building activity. An international team ...

In order to move, cells must be able to rapidly change shape. A team of researchers show that cells achieve this by storing extra 'skin' in folds and bumps on their surface. This cell surface excess ...

Researchers at Oregon Health & Science University have identified a previously unknown system inside cells that works like ...

Cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide, marked by the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells. What makes it more dangerous is the ability of cancer cells to move quickly through the ...

Aggressive cancer cells are masters of movement. When they spread through the body, they cause metastasis, which significantly reduces a person's chance of survival. For this spreading to take place, ...

In a fruit fly, nerve cells that detect limb movement are silenced when the insect walks or grooms. This on-off switch may help the nervous system to shift between two states: one helps keep the body ...

Under the microscope, MSK scientists studied how cells in a mouse embryo (green) move out and break away from their original tissue by contracting their surfaces (red). Studying this process, known as ...

Human immune cells are capable of coordinating their own movement more independently than previously thought. Researchers discovered that immune cells do not just passively follow the chemical cues in ...

Cancer cell movement during metastasis is a dynamic process regulated by several different signals. However, the way cells receive, process and respond to these signals has been extremely hard to ...
