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.

Collective migration plays critical roles in developmental, physiological and pathological processes, and requires a dynamic actomyosin network for cell shape change, cell adhesion and cell-cell ...

However, these alone cannot explain collective cell migration, and a large body of evidence suggests that movement may also happen in response to embryonic electrical fields. How and where these ...

Altogether, developing T cells migration, differentiation, maturation, proliferation, and survival are tightly regulated by a variety of hormones produced both locally and in other endocrine glands, ...

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 ...

This study convincingly shows that aquaporin-mediated cell migration plays a key role in blood vessel formation during zebrafish development. In particular, the paper implicates hydrostatic pressure ...

Cells in the human body have distinct roles – some remain stationary, while others move to perform critical functions. Migratory cells rely delicate, finger-like protrusions called filopodia that ...

Feb. 10, 2025 — Evolution is traditionally associated with a process of increasing complexity and gaining new genes. However, the explosion of the genomic era shows that gene loss and ...

Feb. 4, 2025 — Research has shown that a potential new targeted therapy for childhood brain cancer is effective in infiltrating and killing tumor cells in preclinical models tested in mice.

The first is one none of us can avoid: the global surge in migration and the new era of hard-right politics it has spurred in some of the wealthiest countries in the world. The other has been a ...
