Like all complex organisms, every human originates from a single cell that multiplies through countless cell divisions.

Water and air pose completely different challenges to animals on a number of levels.

Ajay Sood emphasized the need for affordable cell and gene therapies in India, suggesting a national mission to drive down ...

Iron overload is a growing concern in India, especially among patients with Thalassemia and Sickle cell Anaemia who depend on frequent blood transfusions. Left untreated, excess iron can severely ...

To prevent misinterpretation of the single-cell transcriptomic data, and to characterize the hemocyte cell types and their heterogeneity, we sampled hemocytes from a unique known pathogen-free animal ...

While the use of these cells in biobanking is still a long way off, Bolton and Williams believe the Poo Zoo could provide a low-cost solution to gather genetic data in both zoos and the wild, and ...

Researchers have developed a method to extract living cells from feces that they say could help conservationists better understand the genetic diversity of wildlife — and in the long run, could ...

Plants’ Photosynthetic Machinery Functions inside Hamster Cells Transplanted chloroplasts endured two days inside animal cells—and got to work By Saugat Bolakhe edited by Sarah Lewin Frasier ...

The biologists took chloroplasts—the cell components responsible for photosynthesis —from red algae and injected them into hamster cells. As a result, the animal cells gained the ability to ...

Chloroplasts, the parts of cells that allow plants and algae to photosynthesize, are thought to have originated more than 1 billion years ago, when photosynthetic cyanobacteria lived symbiotically ...

The cells driving the tissue are a plant-animal hybrid that can gain energy from sunlight in the same way that plants do, the researchers explain in the study. Both animals and plants derive ...
