Blebs: How Rapidly Protrusions for Movement and Exploration Emerge in Cells

Cells need to be able to quickly alter their form if they are to migrate. Cells do this by storing additional “skin” amid folds and bumps on their surface, according to a team of researchers from the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill.

Analyzing the Cell Division in Stem Cells

What appears to be a simple task for a cell—splitting in two—is indeed a complex series of engineering puzzles. To produce two working cells, a splitting cell has to maneuver its interiors in such a way that the appropriate components will end up in each cell.
