Scientists create solar-powered animal cells using chloroplasts. Hybrid cells show enhanced growth and photosynthesis activity. Breakthrough may lead to sustainable tissue engineering.

“To our knowledge, this is the first time that photosynthetic electron transport has been confirmed in chloroplasts transplanted into animal cells,” explains Yukihiro Matsunaga, a professor at ...

After decades of failed attempts, scientists have finally succeeded in coaxing animal cells into photosynthesizing. So far, the researchers have only managed to achieve the feat in cultured cells ...

In a world first that challenges what we thought we knew about biology, scientists have successfully engineered animal cells that can photosynthesize. The breakthrough promises to revolutionize ...
