Accumulation of fat molecules is detrimental to the cell. Researchers from the Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National ...

Nowhere is the interdisciplinary nature of cell biology better illustrated than in the field of endocytosis. In recent years, it has become clear not only that a better understanding of ...

Cells take up solid particles using a process called endocytosis. How did scientists use viruses to learn about endocytic functions in cells? Aa Aa Aa Viruses are the smallest microorganisms in ...

Breakthrough NUS discovery sheds light on cellular recycling mechanism and potential for treating rare diseases Singapore ...

In order to do this, cells have to use certain methods of transport, and one of them is endocytosis. The larger the molecule, the more difficult it is not only to absorb but also to transport it ...

In our lab, we focus on clathrin-mediated endocytosis, the predominant route for membrane internalisation in most cells. In addition to its role in endocytosis, the clathrin machinery also forms ...

A new study shows how an anticancer drug triggers an “outside in” signal that gets it sucked into a cancer cell.

Consequently, antimicrobial peptides exert direct effects against pathogens, and a number of cytokines/chemokines attract and activate other immune cells. Endocytosis of pathogens, production of ...
