Michael Flores+FollowScientists Just Found a Hidden Cell Part!Turns out, our cells have been hiding a secret compartment all along! Scientists just discovered a brand new organelle called the hemifusome, and it might be a game-changer for understanding how our cells recycle and sort stuff. Think of it as a hidden recycling center that could explain why some diseases happen when things go wrong inside our cells. Wild that we’re still finding new parts in the human body! #Science #ScienceNews #CellBiology140Share
James Brady+FollowCell Snowman? Scientists Find a New Organelle!Did you know our cells have a secret snowman? Scientists just spotted a brand new organelle inside human cells, and it literally looks like a snowman with a scarf. They’re calling it the “hemifusome,” and it might be key to how our cells recycle and get rid of junk. This tiny structure was hiding in plain sight until some clever researchers used next-level imaging to catch it in action. Imagine what else we haven’t seen yet! #ScienceNews #CellBiology #Discovery #Science21Share
Tamara Jones+FollowYour Cells Have a Secret Zinc HeroDid you know your body has a special protein that swoops in when zinc is running low? Scientists just found out about ZNG1, a protein that helps cells survive by making sure the little zinc you have gets to where it’s needed most. Without it, cells can’t function right—even if there’s still some zinc around! This could be a game-changer for tackling zinc deficiency worldwide. Who knew our cells had such drama? #ScienceNews #Zinc #HealthFacts #CellBiology #DidYouKnow #Science60Share
