A confined cancer cell, where the mitochondria (in magenta) can be seen accumulating at the nuclear periphery (nucleus shown in cyan) and within nuclear 'dimples' (indentations). Cancer cells mount an ...

Biologists have long treated the cell as a chemical factory, but a new wave of research is forcing a rethink of that familiar picture. Instead of just tiny bags of reacting molecules, our cells appear ...

In a bid to better understand how cancer cells power their explosive growth and spread, scientists at Johns Hopkins Medicine say they have shed new light on the location and function of ...

When cancer cells are physically squeezed, they mount an instant, high-energy defense by rushing mitochondria to the cell nucleus, unleashing a surge of ATP that fuels DNA repair and survival. This ...
