Researchers have demonstrated that an actin scaffold stabilizes the cell nucleus upon mechanical stress. This protective ...

Cancer cells are subjected to high mechanical pressure that leads to a rupture of the nuclear envelope when migrating through ...

Just as life pulsates in big vibrant cities, it also prospers in crowded environments inside cells. The interior of cells is ...

Every time a eukaryotic cell divides, it faces a monumental challenge: It must carefully duplicate and divide its genetic ...

In tissue biopsies, cancer cells are frequently observed to have nuclei (the cell's genetic information storage) that are ...

After uncovering the structure of a protein that allows respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) to skirt the immune response in a 2017 study, a team of researchers at Washington University in St. Louis went ...

Humans aren’t the only targets for viruses. Like us, bacteria become infected by many types of viruses. In fact, across billions of years, bacteria and viruses have engaged in a non-stop evolutionary ...

New research shows that cancer cells don’t just grow; they adapt when stressed. When squeezed inside tissues, they transform ...

Bone implants often fail to fully integrate with surrounding tissue, limiting their effectiveness in regeneration. A natural but often overlooked cellular process could hold the key to better outcomes ...

Cancer cells are subjected to high mechanical pressure that leads to a rupture of the nuclear envelope when migrating through narrow tissue ...
