Cell migration represents a fundamental physiological process that is intricately linked to cancer biology. The movement of cells is governed by dynamic interactions with the extracellular matrix (ECM ...

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 ...

It has long been known that our bodies derive energy from sugar. Researchers at RPTU University Kaiserslautern-Landau have ...

The curvature of a surface determines the migration behavior of biological cells. They preferentially move along valleys or grooves while avoiding ridges. These findings, published in the journal ...

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 ...

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.

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 ...

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 ...
