Lipid molecules form the membranes that organize cellular biochemistry in all domains of life. Imaging approaches have been developed to visualize different types of lipid at subcellular scales and ...

New technique to image single lipids: Lipids are notoriously difficult to detect with light microscopy. Using a new chemical labeling strategy, the Dresden team has overcome this limitation, enabling ...

Moscot is a cell-mapping framework based on the concept of optimal transport. It can analyse large-scale single-cell data, enabling mapping of the developmental trajectories of individual cells in and ...

The human small intestine absorbs nutrients while protecting us from potentially harmful microbes. One of the cell types that ...

Lipids are broken down through a process called lipolysis, which involves the hydrolysis of triacylglycerols into fatty acids and glycerol. The fatty acids are then oxidized through beta-oxidation in ...

GPT-4 can accurately interpret types of cells important for the analysis of single-cell RNA sequencing—a sequencing process fundamental to interpreting cell types—with high consistency to that of time ...

Cell culture is a fundamental technique in biotechnology and life sciences that involves growing and maintaining living cells outside their natural environment, typically in a controlled laboratory ...

Scientists at ETH Zurich have broken new ground by generating over 400 types of nerve cells from stem cells in the lab, far surpassing previous efforts that produced only a few dozen. By ...
