Cells are not isolated units; they continuously exchange proteins, genetic material, and even entire organelles with their ...

The CM-pDPNA system uses γ-4S-2CTX to self-assemble into uniform nanoparticles, which are then modified with PEG and tumor cell membranes. This dual camouflage improves nanoparticle stability, tumor ...

International research team presents new imaging technique to make lipids in cellular membranes visible and show how they are ...

A recent study published in Small explored how cationic fusogenic liposomes can merge directly with cellular membranes to improve drug delivery. Researchers found that these liposomes can temporarily ...

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 ...

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 ...

Biological membranes of cells and their subunits (organelles) are organized into tiny regions (nanodomains) made up of fats ...

A new imaging technique reveals lipids in cellular membranes and shows how they are organized at the nanoscale.

Cells may generate their own electrical signals through microscopic membrane motions. Researchers show that active molecular processes can create voltage spikes similar to those used by neurons. These ...
