From liquid to solid: New technique uncovers disease-related changes in tiny droplets within our cells

Understanding the behavior of tiny droplets in our cells could aid the search for new treatments. A team of Leiden researchers has developed a method to study how these droplets transition from liquid to solid. This change plays a role in various diseases, including neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer’s and muscular dystrophy. The findings were published in Cell Reports Physical Science. Understanding the behavior of tiny droplets in our cells could aid the search for new treatments.
