Glycine, a non-essential amino acid derived from serine, plays an increasingly recognized role in metabolic regulation.

Calcium (Ca2+) drives many cellular functions, though the way it controls quality of proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum ...

A new method exposes key details of the mechanism behind calcium signaling in prokaryotes for the first time. Working in a Listeria monocytogenes model, researchers from Umeå University (Sweden) led ...

During embryonic development, the intestine of the Drosophila fly divides into distinct chambers thanks to the formation of ...

Cerebral blood delivery depends on mechanisms such as electrical signaling, which propagates through capillary networks to upstream arterioles to deliver blood, and calcium signaling, which fine-tunes ...

Cell signaling is crucial for cells to communicate and function correctly. Disruptions in these pathways, caused by genetic mutations or environmental factors, can lead to uncontrolled cell growth, ...

Autophagy is essentially the 'rubbish collection' of our cells. If there are problems in this process, which is so important for our health, diseases such as Parkinson's can result. In their latest ...
