Environments can induce cell structural instability, resulting in cell fragments shedding that can actively migrate, as described by as #Blebbisomes, or, as some decided to go more Hollywood with the terms, #Zombosomes.
Gemini image editing is quite impressive……
What would happen if cells would express more molecular motors ?
They would break all microtubules 😱

Is it a problem to have a new government every 2-3 days or a week? I guess there is a problem with the budget approval, but the inner and foreign policies were messy for a while now.
”Please inhibit responsibly: Natural and synthetic actin toxins as useful tools in cell biology”
I had a lot of fun going down different actin inhibitor rabbit holes with @onishilab.bsky.social on this perspective!
