Mitochondria are specialized structures within cells that are primarily responsible for energy production but that also play ...

When a cell is placed on top of these nanopillars, the nucleus wraps itself around the nanopillars, causing its membrane to curve. This induced curvature in turn causes tiny, self-sealing openings ...

A natural but often overlooked cellular process could hold the key to better outcomes in bone repair, according to new research from Northwestern Engineering. A team led by Professor Guillermo Ameer ...
