In eukaryotic cells, which are found in complex organisms including humans, little membrane-bound organelles carry out various functions. It's been suggested that these organelles, which all have ...

Challenge individuals or small groups create a dynamic movable model of the different organelles and cell structures that emulate the real movement, function, and dynamic nature of each structure. As ...

Our body is made up of many different kinds of cells, and inside each cell are organelles, tiny machines that help carry out cellular functions. New work reveals more about a network connecting two ...

A new discovery inside your cells may change how scientists understand disease and design future treatments. Researchers have ...

Mitochondria are cell organelles surrounded by a double membrane. In addition to numerous essential functions in the metabolism of the cell, they also play a key role in the integration of signals ...

Hyperspectral imaging has provided an insight into how cells organize and prioritize organelle growth. As cells grow, their organelles also need to grow. But do all the organelles grow at the same ...

The cell is the structural and functional unit of living organisms. It was discovered by Robert Hooke in 1665.

Researchers have developed a technique that enables visualization of cellular organelles at a resolution that has not previously been achievable in optical microscopy.

Organelles are the functional units of a cell. They perform specialized functions, and defects in their enzymes performing those functions can result in metabolic disorders.

This little organelle has a big job helping our cells sort, recycle and discard important cargo within themselves, the scientists say. The new discovery could help scientists better understand what ...
