But what humans forget, cells remember. The body, that elephant
Each one of us is a city of cells, and each cell a town of bacteria. You are a gigantic megalopolis of bacteria.
Any living cell carries with it the experience of a billion years of experimentation by its ancestors.
The living cell almost always contains, locked in its interior, the visible or invisible products of its physiological activity or its nourishment.
Normal cells are identically normal; malignant cells become unhappily malignant in unique ways.
A cell is regarded as the true biological atom.
This cell was a form of hell. I was trapped in my past, unable to escape my mistakes, forced to relive them each time a new body was brought in.
It was tortuous, and so much like my uncle.
If a single cell, under appropriate conditions, becomes a man in the space of a few years, there can surely be no difficulty in understanding how, under appropriate conditions, a cell may, in the course of untold millions of years, give origin to the human race.

In basic research, the use of the electron microscope has revealed to us the complex universe of the cell, the basic unit of life.
Cellular pathology is not an end if one cannot see any alteration in the cell. Chemistry brings the clarification of living processes nearer than does anatomy. Each anatomical change must have been preceded by a chemical one.
We are inhabited by as many as ten thousand bacterial species; these cells outnumber those which we consider our own by ten to one, and weigh, all told, about three pounds - the same as our brain.

My introduction to cell cycle control was provided by a clear, scholarly and beautiful seminar given by John Gerhart one afternoon in the summer of 1979.
Cancer, we now know, is a disease caused by the uncontrolled growth of a single cell.
Like my brain cells. I find they come in handy when I ... oh, I don't know ... think.
A cancer cell is an astonishing perversion of the normal cell. Cancer is a phenomenally successful invader and colonizer in part because it exploits the very features that make us successful as a species or as an organism.
I knew I was going to be a cellular biologist whose research would focus on scrutinizing every nuance of the cell's ultrastructure to gain insights into the secrets of cellular life.
It is not a simple life to be a single cell, although I have no right to say so, having been a single cell so long ago myself that I have no memory at all of that stage in my life.

If humans were to model the lifestyle displayed by healthy community of cells , our societies and our planet would be more peaceful and vital
The fractal structure nature has devised works so efficiently that, in most tissue, no cell is ever more than three or four cells away from a blood vessel. Yet the vessels and blood take up little space, no more than about five percent of the body.
You can actually program your cells toward better health and fitness.
This substance, which is manifold in its forms and protean in its transformations, has, in its state of living matter, one physiological name which has become familiar, that of protoplasm.
Pluripotent cells have the ability to grow into any cell in the body.
The complexity of the simplest known type of cell is so great that it is impossible to accept that such an object could have been thrown together suddenly by some kind of freakish, vastly improbable, event. Such an occurrence would be indistinguishable from a miracle.

Belting out gospel and disco. Amazing Grace.
And her tired mind
says hush. Enough is enough.

So one way of looking at our trillion-celled bodies is that they are protein machines, although, as you know, I think we are more than machines! It sounds simple, but it isn't. For one thing, it takes over 100,000 different types of proteins to run our bodies. Let
