Fibroblasts are the quiet workers of the skin. They help build collagen and other support fibers in the dermis, the deeper layer that keeps skin firm, flexible, and able to recover from daily wear.

For most of their lives, plants get their energy from photosynthesis. But during the seed to seedling stage, when they can't ...

Before seedlings can photosynthesize, they depend on fatty acids—and on peroxisomes to process them. Researchers discovered ...

Rice University scientists used advanced CRISPR techniques to uncover how the PEX11 protein regulates peroxisome size during the critical seed-to-seedling growth stage in plants. By selectively ...

Scientists haven’t had a precise way to arrange and study surface-bound extracellular vesicles and particles (EVPs) as they guide cell behavior. Researchers developed LEVA, which uses patterned ...

A fingernail-sized chip can now trap thousands of individual cell-shed vesicles in roughly three seconds and read their ...
