Although obese individuals are at greater risk of diabetes, high blood pressure or high cholesterol, not all obese people ...

Discover how Nobel laureate Ardem Patapoutian's research on PIEZO channels revolutionizes our understanding of human biology.

A recently published paper in Science China Life Sciences reports an interdisciplinary study utilizing single-cell sequencing data analysis to identify GPCRs involved in the regulation of adipogenesis ...

really important to maintain any structure which has a membrane," Singh said. Take the electrolyte potassium, for example. It is the most abundant positively charged ion inside cells, but its ...

Using SCP-Nano, the researchers demonstrated that DNA origami structures can be preferentially targeted to the immune cells, while AAV variants target distinct brain regions and adipose tissue.

Employing this approach, we comprehensively characterize the depot-dependent cellular dynamics of various cell types underlying adipose tissue remodeling during obesity. By integrating bulk nuclear ...

When stripped of its lipids, the lipocartilage becomes stiff and brittle, highlighting the importance of its fat-filled cells in maintaining the tissue's combination of durability and flexibility.

Instead of then piercing the host cells’ membranes, as in earlier work, the researchers adjusted the culture medium’s composition so it coaxed the animal cells into engulfing the chloroplasts ...
