Scientists have long known that cellular membranes vary in thickness, but measuring those differences inside actual cells has ...
Researchers shifted the focus to the internal properties of the membrane itself, specifically its viscosity, highlighting its critical role in controlling deformation and dynamics during essential ...
Cells do more than carry out chemical reactions. New theoretical work suggests they may also generate usable electrical ...
The constant, energy-driven motion inside living cells may generate electricity in a way no one fully recognized before.
Cellular membrane proteins play many important roles throughout the body, including transporting substances in and out of the cell, transmitting signals, speeding up reactions and helping neighboring ...
