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.

Neurons may get all the glory, but they would be nothing without glial cells. While brain cells do the heavy lifting in the nervous system, it's the glia that provide nutrients, clean up waste, and ...

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 ...

Seoul National University College of Engineering announced that Professor Kyu-Jin Cho's research team from the Department of ...

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 ...

When you first enter a new world, you can either spawn near a structure or find one while exploring any of the three dimensions. While finding some can be quite easy, others are extremely hard to ...

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.

The team believes that the structure was in use until the 8th century BCE, the middle of the period when the Kings of Judah ruled. A scarab seal from the 8th century BCE uncovered during the ...
