An international collaboration has published groundbreaking research, shedding light on the most significant increase in complexity in the history of life's evolution on Earth: the origin of the ...

There are two major types of hypothesis about how eukaryotes and their nuclei may have originated (Poole & Penny 2007). One of these involves fusion between cells from domains Archaea and Bacteria ...

Plant cells have several structures not found in other eukaryotes. In particular, organelles called chloroplasts allow plants to capture the energy of the Sun in energy-rich molecules; cell walls ...

Medical Sciences Honours students must include in their program at least 21 credit hours in the following courses. Students not in the honours program must include at least 24 credit hours of these ...

Nevertheless, such observations are complex─they require delicate samples kept in the liquid phase, low electron dose, and proper cell viability verification methods. Despite being highly demanding, ...

Tissue suspensions were passed through a 70 µm cell strainer and single chondrocytes were collected. Cells were washed with PBS and split into aliquots. Approximately 2 million primary chondrocytes ...

Discoveries of epigenetic and other mechanisms in cells may indeed further our understanding of the aetiological relations. However, this does not mean that large population studies without direct ...

Recently, a pioneering study conducted by Susanna L Cooke and her team14 identified 42 somatically acquired pseudogenes in 14 out of 629 primary cancer samples and 3 out of 31 cancer cell lines via ...

We hypothesise that the key feature of emulsifier-treated M-SHIME microbiotas that drove their ability to promote inflammation following transplant was their greater ability to encroach upon host ...
