The test can be used to better stratify cancer patients and determine the likelihood of breast cancer metastasizing.

In Ming-Chiu Fung’s immunology lab, Hogan had been investigating how disturbances in the cytoskeletons of cells might contribute to the fragmentation of mitochondria during apoptosis, the most ...

Cells can also send out packages called exosomes, lipid vesicles that bubble off from the cell membrane. But for about 20 ...

The white blood cell then engulfs the pathogen in a process called phagocytosis ... a protein found on the surface of cells that facilitates adhesion, helping them stick to other surfaces.

Organelles in cells were originally often independent cells, which were incorporated by host cells and lost their ...
