Just as the human body serves as a habitat for bacteria and other microbes, diverse, tiny organisms known as protists host ...

In new research published this week, a team led by Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL) scientists reveals that symbiotic bacteria often accompany single-celled protists in the ocean’s upper layer. Some ...

Strategy for discovering protist – bacterial interactions in the ocean. The strategy relied on working at-sea where uncultivated cells could be interrogated without any form of fixation. The cartoon ...

Rhobo6, a light microscopy probe, gives scientists an unprecedented look at the extracellular matrix -- the collection of organized molecular structures that fills the spaces between cells in our ...

Feb. 4, 2025 — Research has shown that a potential new targeted therapy for childhood brain cancer is effective in infiltrating and killing tumor cells in preclinical models tested in mice.

This is called photosynthesis. The basic structure of a plant cell is shown below. Photosynthesis relies on many structures in the cell all working together, each playing its role. The diagram ...

Many cells in multicellular organisms are specialised. They have specific roles in the organism of which they are part. Their structure is adapted to their function. They are often grouped ...

structure and interactions of cellular molecules such as nucleic acids and proteins that carry out the biological processes essential for the cell s functions and maintenance. Single-cell ...

Oxide-ion conductors are important energy materials. Here, the authors found a tellurite-based oxygen ion conductor highlighting the interplay of secondary bond interactions and Grotthuss-like ...

An innovative organoid model mirrors the pancreas' complexity, generating all three key cell types to explore development and possible regeneration.
