Leaf vasculature plays a pivotal role in nutrient transport and leaf morphology. A new study in Brassica rapa reveals the ...

When human cells lack oxygen, they must react. Without oxygen, the metabolism can hardly generate energy, and many vital processes begin to falter. A research team from Bielefeld University, together ...

Cornell researchers have discovered a previously unknown way plants regulate water that is so fundamental it may change plant ...

For example, naïve T cells increase in size before undergoing a burst of proliferation, while liver and fat cells enlarge or contract in response to nutrient availability. In these cases, size changes ...

Water behaves differently when trapped in microscopic spaces instead of flowing freely. Researchers have shown that this confined water becomes “highly energetic,” influencing how molecules bind ...

Growing from a single cell into a complex organism with specialized tissues and organs requires a complex and coordinated process.

Dissolved organic matter (DOM) is central to carbon and nutrient cycling in both natural and engineered environments. In ...
