Extracellular vesicles and particles are central to how cells communicate, especially in cancer, where they help shape metastasis and treatment resistance. However, most existing methods analyze ...

Gas vesicles are among the largest known protein nanostructures produced and assembled inside microbial cells. These hollow, air-filled cylindrical nanostructures found in certain aquatic microbes ...

Engineering multifunctional extracellular vesicles that can selectively and effectively kill lung cancer cells with minimal ...

As a major component of the immune system, T cells play a critical role in fighting off viral infections. A team led by Prof. Thomas Brocker and Jan Kranich from LMU's Biomedical Center has ...

Cells have a clever way called clathrin-mediated endocytosis to transport cargos like growth factors across the cell membrane and into the cell. Researchers used a sophisticated fluorescence ...

Rice bioengineers developed a new genetic regulatory system that makes the production of gas vesicles more sustainable for nonnative host cells.

Cancer immunotherapy has transformed modern oncology by harnessing body's own immune system to combat malignant disease.

In the field of Regenerative Medicine, the preclinical and clinical research on multipotent adult stem cells, and in ...

Polymers that repel each other can spontaneously phase-separate inside artificial vesicles, like oils in a lava lamp. Interaction between droplets and the cell wall limits the size of the droplets and ...

The interaction of lipid vesicles (liposomes) of several different compositions with erythrocytes has been investigated. Lecithin liposomes, rendered positively charged with stearylamine, exhibit ...
