Lipid membranes, which form the outer layer of cells, can be engineered to influence cellular functions. For example, ...

Living emulsions, which incorporate active bacteria into oil–water multiphase systems, represent an innovative integration of microbiology and colloid science. The active role of living species offers ...

Rather than being like battery chargers, mitochondria are more like the motherboard of the cell.

My search for answers to these stupendously ambitious questions led me, it now seems inexorably, to mitochondria. This idea of mitochondria being little batteries with a built-in charger, about as ...

The study reveals how APOL9 selectively binds to gut bacteria, enhancing immune responses and maintaining intestinal health ...

Using advanced proteomics technologies, research teams from the Shanghai Institute of Nutrition and Health at the Chinese ...

The human gut is home to trillions of microbes that not only aid in digestion but also play a key role in shaping our immune ...

Study in mice shows how a host-elicited factor benefits gut immunological homeostasis by selectively targeting commensal ceramide molecules.

The human gut is home to trillions of microbes that not only aid in digestion, but also play a key role in shaping our immune ...

The human gut is home to trillions of microbes that not only aid in digestion but also play a key role in shaping our immune system. These microbes ...

Researchers have also detected biomolecular condensates in prokaryotic, or bacterial, cells ... membranes would also need to encapsulate these RNAs. This would require synthesizing the lipids ...
