Autophagy, the process by which cells recycle damaged components, has long been associated with neuroprotection. However, the ...

Recycling takes place in our cells at all times: in a process called autophagy, cell components that are no longer needed are enclosed by membranes and broken down into their basic building blocks.

A research team from Frankfurt and Freiburg has discovered how cells recognize and internally break down waste. The results ...

Aging involves gradual functional decline across various biological systems, including impaired cellular mechanisms such as ...

Tongue cancer (TC) cells can enter a chemo-resistant state by activating pathways related to autophagy and cholesterol synthesis, report researchers. Using a large-scale library of TC organoids they ...

Several autophagy pathways operate within a cell, including macroautophagy, microautophagy and chaperone-mediated autophagy. The clearance of biomacromolecules through selective autophagy is ...

When STING is triggered, TANK-binding kinase (TBK1) activates and leads to interferon production. However, Tan and his team ...

Tongue cancer organoid research uncovers autophagy and cholesterol pathways as key mechanisms behind chemotherapy resistance.

Cell biology is the discipline of biological sciences that studies the structure, physiology, growth, reproduction and death of cells. Research in cell biology uses microscopic and molecular tools ...
