In mechanobiology, cells' forces have been considered fundamental to their enhanced function, including fast migration. But a group of researchers in the McKelvey School of Engineering at ...

Every cell in the body normally has its fixed place as part of a tissue structure. Except for a few cell types, such as blood ...

Collective cell migration is defined as the coordinated movement of multiple cells that retain cell–cell contacts while coordinating their actin dynamics and intracellular signalling.

Nathan Blow looks at some of the technologies used by cell biologists to unlock the mysteries of cell migration. As people move from place to place to carry out daily activities, within their ...

Vimentin is a type III intermediate filament (IF) protein normally expressed in cells that develop into connective tissue, blood vessels, and lymphatic tissue (mesenchymal cells). Despite being widely ...

Cells navigating in complex microenvironments frequently encounter narrow spaces that physically challenge migration.

Comprises everything you need to run fully kinetic and automated 96-well cell migration (scratch wound) on Incucyte ®: 96-pin woundmaking tool (Incucyte ® WoundMaker), Cell Migration Analysis ...

After fasting, they found these cells had travelled to the pancreas. “Genetic photoconversion experiments revealed that fasting induced the migration of intestinal ILC2s to the pancreas ...

Researchers have identified endogenous electric fields in developing embryos that guide the migration of neural crest cells, essential for forming facial bones and the nervous system. The enzyme ...
