Research into cell cycle regulation and size control in microorganisms has yielded a nuanced understanding of how these entities maintain homeostasis and synchronise growth with division. In both ...
What keeps our cells the right size? Scientists have long puzzled over this fundamental question, since cells that are too large or too small are linked to many diseases. Until now, the genetic basis ...
Doug Kellogg, professor of molecular, cell, and developmental biology at UC Santa Cruz, has been awarded $2.95 million from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to study control of cell growth and ...

Robust surface-to-mass coupling and turgor-dependent cell width determine bacterial dry-mass density
During growth, cells must expand their cell volumes in coordination with biomass to control the level of cytoplasmic macromolecular crowding. Dry-mass density, the average ratio of dry mass to volume, ...
A 3D rendering showing the internal structure of an animal cell, with several round or wavy structures inside a border. It turns out that the redox state of a cell, such as the animal cell shown, is ...
Until now, doctors knew hepatic stellate cells mainly as drivers of liver fibrosis. The actual functions of this cell type have hardly been studied to date. Researchers have now determined that ...
