Animals, plants and many other living organisms inhale oxygen to "burn" (oxidize) compounds like sugar into CO 2 and water—a process during which the energy-rich molecule ATP is produced. Cells ...

A new research perspective, titled "Targeting cellular respiration as a therapeutic strategy in glioblastoma," was published in Oncotarget on May 4, 2023. While glycolysis is abundant in malignancies, ...

Plants and trees may seem pretty passive, but behind the scenes, their cells are working hard to put on a magic show. In this episode of Crash Course Botany, we’ll explore how the processes of ...

This video explains how living things use cellular respiration to produce energy. Aerobic respiration uses oxygen to break down glucose completely. Anaerobic respiration converts oxygen to lactic acid ...

Glioblastoma is one of the most treatment-resistant brain tumors, making it especially difficult to treat. Part of that resistance stems from its unique tumor microenvironment—the complex mix of cells ...

In a paper published today, researchers from the Randall Centre for Cell & Molecular Biophysics and The Crick use an evolutionary cell biology approach in two related fission yeasts, one that acquires ...

In this episode of Crash Course Botany, we’ll explore how the processes of photosynthesis! Plants and trees may seem pretty passive, but behind the scenes, their cells are working hard to put on a ...
