The ways in which cells function are strongly dependent on cell membranes which enclose cellular compartments and separate the interiors of cells from the extracellular domain. Oxidative stress harms ...

The image shows how SNARE proteins (in salmon color) initiate the fusion of two membranes by facilitating encounters of their water-repelling tails (yellow and green) at the water-filled interface ...

Our understanding of how cells recycle lipids through autophagy -- a form of cellular degradation -- has grown significantly, thanks to a recent study. Using yeast as a model organism, the researchers ...

Lipid nanoparticles address key drug delivery challenges, including immune evasion, toxicity, and regulatory approval.
