Scientists have discovered a remarkable new form of symbiosis — a bacterium that lives inside a single-celled organism (a ...

By reexamining 3D images used to map the connections between brain cells, researchers are uncovering new information about a small, elusive, and often overlooked cellular appendage.

New research on nematodes reveals how glial cells maintain and monitor neuronal dendrites. Neurons may get all the glory, but they would be nothing without glial cells. While brain cells do the heavy ...

Glia (light green) respond to the loss of dendrite cilia (dark pink) by accumulating excess extracellular matrix (dark green). Neurons may get all the ...

But comparatively few studies have investigated how glia protect and maintain dendrites and their delicate cilia. Knowing that dendrite structure changes correlate with learning and memory ...

Seoul National University College of Engineering announced that Professor Kyu-Jin Cho's research team from the Department of Mechanical Engineering has developed a "hyperelastic torque-reversal ...

Cilia assembly relies on cargo trains that move bidirectionally on separate tubules of the ciliary microtubular structure, preventing traffic jams. Here, the authors demonstrate that train sorting ...

In mature cells, the cilia are disassembled and go away completely. However, the centriole, the structure from which the cilium grows, remains docked on the surface of these mature cells.

Researchers developed a hyperelastic torque reversal mechanism, enhancing soft robots' performance with rapid and powerful movements.
