The discovery of an unknown organelle inside our cells could open the door to new treatments for devastating inherited diseases. The organelle, a type of specialized structure, has been dubbed a ...

Organelles – the bits and pieces of RNA and protein within a cell – play important roles in human health and disease, such as maintaining homeostasis, regulating growth and aging, and generating ...

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. However, organelles are ...

Scientists have made a breakthrough in understanding how different compartments (or organelles) of human cells interact. Scientists have made a breakthrough in understanding how different compartments ...

Researchers have discovered that lysosomes, traditionally viewed as cellular waste bins, sense mechanical forces and ...

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 ...

A pioneering study has shed new light on how a group of novel organelle-based disorders affects cells. The study led by Professor Michael Schrader from the University of Exeter, and featuring an ...

For the first time, researchers have directly visualized how newly formed cellular organelles leave the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and transition onto microtubule tracks inside living cells. This new ...
