As an embryo grows, there is a continuous stream of communication between cells to form tissues and organs. Cells need to read numerous cues from their environment, and these may be chemical or ...

Cell migration underpins critical processes such as embryonic development, immune surveillance and tumour metastasis. The dynamics of motile cells arise from a complex interplay between intracellular ...

To move forward or migrate, the different cells in our body must exert forces or interact with their surrounding environment. Interestingly, however, a fault in these interactions can also be the ...

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.

A new study integrated mathematical modeling with advanced imaging to discover that the physical shape of the fruit fly egg chamber, combined with chemical signals, significantly influences how cells ...
