Animal cells do not have a cell wall. They change size and shape when put into solutions that are at a different concentration to the cell contents.

They do not have a cell wall, so will change size and shape when put into solutions that are at a different concentration to the cell contents. Red blood cells lose water and shrink in a ...

Here, we tested the hypothesis that DNA transfection efficiency is limited by a simple physical barrier: low DNA concentration at the cell surface. We used dense silica nanoparticles to ...

In particular, as the concentration of b-glucans goes down, fungi rapidly increase the presence of different, but related molecules to regenerate and preserve the integrity of the cell wall.
