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 ...

In this review, we summarize TAM ontogeny and polarization, and then explore how TAMs enhance tumor cell migration through the TME, thus facilitating metastasis. We also discuss how chemotherapy and ...

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 ...

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 ...

Jan. 30, 2025 — A research group has developed new advanced light-controlled tools that enable precise control of proteins in real time in living cells. This groundbreaking research opens doors ...

‘Flow’ director Gints Zilbalodis and plug-in developer Mārtiņš Upītis talk about the development of the water plug-in used to create the Golden Globe-winning film.

The scientists found that this cell migration was orchestrated by the nervous system. During fasting, neurons in the gut connected to the brain release chemical signals that bind to immune cells ...
