Scientists uncover how the nucleolus, a tiny structure within cells, may control aging and lifespan, opening new ...

In experiments, cells containing a fluorescent dye within their nuclei were placed on the nanopillars. Researchers observed ...

potentially triggering a cascade of events that warps the nucleus’ shape. To explore the extent to which NIPBL’s loss affects the abundance of DNA loops, they mapped out these loops in precursor cells ...

Innovative muscle patches derived from stem cells demonstrate efficacy in heart repair, improving function in primates and a human patient, with trials ahead.

Nuclear pore complexes are the guardians of the human genome that is packaged into the nucleus of all cells. They form selective channels through the envelope of the nucleus and connect its ...

While prokaryotic cells do not have membrane-bound structures, they do have distinct cellular regions (Figure 1). In prokaryotic cells, DNA bundles together in a region called the nucleoid. Primitive ...

The primary distinction between these two types of organisms is that eukaryotic cells have a membrane-bound nucleus, and prokaryotic cells do not. The nucleus is where eukaryotes store their genetic ...
