Researchers find cell migration doesn't only rely on generating force. A professor of mechanical engineering and materials science found that groups of cells moved faster with lower force when adhered ...

Konstanz researchers identify an enzyme that plays a role in the migration of cells in our body—not only during normal tissue formation and wound healing, but also when tumor cells metastasize. This ...

"Cell movement is essential for cancer cells to spread from the primary tumor to secondary sites. Even though this is widely recognized as the key step in cancer progression, there are currently no ...

Cell migration is a multistep process essential to various physiological functions, including immune cell movement and embryonic development, as well as pathological conditions like tumor metastasis.

Neural crest cells are a population of stem cells that invade the embryo in early development. They play a big role in what ...

How do cells move from A to B through our body to build functional tissues? And how is this process regulated? The answers to these questions are essential – for example, for our understanding of how ...

New research by scientists at the Champalimaud Foundation has revealed a surprising new role for the immune system. Their study in mice found that during periods of low energy— such as intermittent ...

This eBook demonstrates how integrated imaging cytometry technology streamlines cellular analysis by combining plate reading ...

Researchers have discovered how newly created neurons depend on blood flow in the adult brain to travel from their site of origin to their final location. The study in mice, published today in eLife ...
