A research team at Kumamoto University has developed a deep learning-based method for analyzing the cytoskeleton—the structural framework inside cells—more accurately and efficiently than ever before.

Prof. Michael Murrell's group (lead author Zachary Gao Sun, graduate student in physics) in collaboration with Prof. Garegin Papoian's group from the University of Maryland at College Park has found ...

Researchers have built a synthetic-cell platform that can be chemically adjusted in real time, sidestepping a long-standing ...

Researchers developed GraFT, a computational tool that maps and tracks actin filaments over time, enabling precise analysis ...

The deep learning-based segmentation method, applied to confocal microscopy images of cortical microtubules in tobacco BY-2 cells, significantly improves density measurement accuracy compared to ...

This finding implies that the cell nucleus can rotate even when there is no chiral orientation of the cytoskeleton on a cellular level. To confirm whether this mechanism was driving the rotation, the ...

Cells are characterized to be stable yet highly flexible. They constantly modify their shape and even move through tissue. These vital properties are based on a dynamically organized network of ...

Living cells are bombarded with molecular signals that influence their behavior. Being able to measure those signals and the response to them could help scientists learn much more about how cells work ...

BACKGROUND: Despite antiplatelet therapy, some patients remain at high ischemic risk because of drug nonresponsiveness or high residual platelet reactivity). We aimed to target an orphan platelet GPCR ...

Not only have researchers identified how a common cellular protein affects aging, but they’ve tweaked the genes that produce it in fruit flies, extending healthy lifespan by 25% to 30%. The discovery ...
