New Insight Into Nerve Cell Communication (Medical News Today)
Communication between nerve cells is vital for our bodies to function. Part of this communication happens through vesicles containing signalling molecules called neurotransmitters. The vesicle fuses with the nerve cell membrane; the neurotransmitters are released and quickly recorded by the next nerve cell. It is crucial that new vesicles constantly are produced for the... »

Nanoparticles Can Rip Your DNA Apart Without Ever Touching It (Gizmodo Australia)
If I could visualise nanoparticles, I’d think of them as crime bosses because apparently they can mess with DNA without ever having direct interaction. Like a true godfather, a nanoparticle commands obeying molecules to do the dirty work.
