OA-Gateway is a digital open-access platform dedicated to sharing high-quality research, articles, and insights across multiple disciplines. By removing paywalls, it ensures free, global access to cutting-edge knowledge for researchers, professionals, and students.

Cells Accepts all article on cell biology, molecular biology, and biophysics.

Cells are the fundamental structural and functional units of all living organisms, ranging from unicellular bacteria to complex multicellular organisms like humans. They carry out essential biological processes such as metabolism, growth, reproduction, and response to stimuli. Cells can be broadly classified into prokaryotic (lacking a nucleus) and eukaryotic (with a membrane-bound nucleus) types.
