Scientists say the constant motion of living cells could be a hidden source of electrical power
Cells have always hummed with activity. They make their own energy, package it into molecules like ATP, and spend it relentlessly to stay alive. Proteins twist, ions rush, and membranes flex as life ...

A Hidden Source of Power May Have Been Discovered Surrounding Our Cells
Membranes are constantly bending as a result of heat fluctuating randomly through the cell. In theory, any voltage produced this way ought to cancel out in environments under equilibrium, making them ...

Hybrid approach developed for analyzing and designing graphene nanosheet-based materials
The Helfrich theory of membrane bending, supported by molecular dynamics simulations, is a promising approach for evaluating mechanical properties of graphene nanosheets, report researchers from the ...
Researchers shifted the focus to the internal properties of the membrane itself, specifically its viscosity, highlighting its critical role in controlling deformation and dynamics during essential ...
Transverse tubules (T-tubules) play significant role in muscle contraction. However, the underlying mechanism of their formation is yet to be ...
The new technique combines Helfrich theory of membrane bending and molecular dynamic simulations, allowing direct evaluation of the bending rigidity of graphene nanosheets without requiring ...
