Scientists Say the Constant Motion of Living Cells Could Be a Hidden Source of Electrical Power
The constant, energy-driven motion inside living cells may generate electricity in a way no one fully recognized before.
Scientists have uncovered new details about how cells manage the distribution of lipids in their cell membrane. These lipids, known as phospholipids, are arranged in a bilayer of membranes, regulating ...
Researchers have discovered that damage to the cell membrane promotes cellular senescence, or cell aging. Our cells are surrounded by a fragile membrane that's only 5 nanometers thick, 1/20 of a soap ...

Mitochondria migrate toward the cell membrane in response to high glucose levels, study shows
Unlike our organs, cell organelles such as mitochondria are not fixed in place, but when, where, how, and why organelles move remain unclear. Research published in the Biophysical Journal shows that ...
