Tetrahymena, a tiny single celled-organism, turns out to be hiding a surprising secret: it's doing respiration -- using oxygen to generate cellular energy -- differently from other organisms such as ...

Respiration is not merely a vital physiological process but also a potent modulator of brain dynamics. Recent advances have elucidated how the rhythmic nature of breathing entrains neural oscillations ...

Many cells can use oxygen or nutrients to generate fuel, and the process is similar in many organisms that use an electron transport chain. But scientists have found that in a tiny organism, things ...
