“Cell migration is required and essential for metazoan development, tissue regeneration and repair, as well as in immune surveillance. Many diseases such as cancer, fibrosis, and inherited ...

The fight against cancer often begins with uncovering hidden players, and this study reveals one such key player: an unexpected class of abbreviated N-glycans. These molecules, upregulated in cancer ...

Cell migration depends on structures called focal adhesions that connect a cell to the surrounding extracellular matrix. Microtubules—long, thin polymers found in and around cells—help disassemble ...

“Focus has been on how cells become mechanosensitive, how cell adhesion became mechanosensitive through the recruitment of mechanosensitive proteins like talin, vinculin, and also other proteins,” ...

Cells in the body have to move around in order to do their jobs. During development, for instance, cells are distributed to create and grow tissue. And in the event of an immune response, different ...
