Eukaryotes are thought to have originated through a process known as endosymbiosis, in which an ancestral prokaryotic cell engulfed another, forming a mutually beneficial relationship. Over time, the ...

In a groundbreaking study on the synthesis of cellulose -- a major constituent of all plant cell walls -- a team has captured images of the microscopic process of cell-wall building continuously ...

Cell polarity is the asymmetric organisation of several cellular components, including its plasma membrane, cytoskeleton or organelles. This asymmetry can be used for specialised functions, such ...

What Is B-Cell Lymphoma? B-cell lymphoma is a cancer that forms in your white blood cells called lymphocytes. These cells are made by your lymphatic system, which plays an important role in immunity.

"It's much like doing a medical CT scan where you can see inside of the cell non-destructively, so you don't have to cut the cell open," says Carolyn Larabell, a cell biologist at UC San Francisco.

AstraZeneca bought Belgian biotech company EsoBiotec in a deal valued at up to $1 billion, to expand its cell-therapy portfolio. The British pharma company said Monday that it will pay $425 ...
