Tight junctions (blue dots) between cells are connected areas of the plasma membrane that stitch cells together. Adherens junctions (red dots) join the actin filaments of neighboring cells together.

A team of German researchers has developed a miniaturized solar cell experiment for nanosatellites. It was used to test ...

To preserve proper tissue architecture, adhesive molecules help maintain contact between nearby cells and structures, and tiny tunnel-like junctions allow the passage of ions and small molecules ...

In biology textbooks, the endoplasmic reticulum is often portrayed as a distinct, compact organelle near the nucleus, and is commonly known to be responsible for protein trafficking and secretion. In ...

Once the bottom layer has gained extra electrons, it becomes negatively charged at the junction; at the same time, the top layer has gained a positive charge there. Now the cell is ready for the sun.

These physical signals are determined by the strength of intercellular contacts, the E-cadherin junctions. Moreover, they showed that cells are extruded either apically or basally into the tissue ...

The novel cell technology was introduced in the paper “24.2% efficient POLO back junction solar cell with an AlO x /SiN y dielectric stack from an industrial-scale direct plasma-enhanced ...

A Columbus Junction substitute teacher is accused of using a hidden phone to stalk a student. His stepfather faces separate child pornography charges.
