Scientists have long known that cellular membranes vary in thickness, but measuring those differences inside actual cells has ...

Kanazawa University, in collaboration with Osaka University and the National Institutes for Quantum Science and Technology, ...

The blood-brain and blood-retinal barriers are protective systems that prevent harmful substances from entering the brain and ...

Lysosomes are the recycling centers of human cells. Larger molecules are broken down inside the membrane-enclosed vesicles. Malfunctions can lead to neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's.

Human cells are extremely small and tightly packed – at about 20 micrometers across, roughly one-fifth the width of a human ...

Researchers decipher the function of an ion channel involved in cellular degradation processes and create new possibilities for Parkinson’s therapies.

Scientists suggest increasing what is understood about exocytosis could one day inform many fields of applied science.
