Role of hypoxia in promoting migration and cell fusion of urine-derived stem cells
Objective To explore the effect of hypoxia on cell migration and fusion of urine-derived stem cells (USCs) in vitro, and observe the changes in cytoskeleton and cell polarity during the process.

Roles of cell fusion, hybridization and polyploid cell formation in cancer metastasis
Cell-cell fusion is a normal biological process playing essential roles in organ formation and tissue differentiation, repair and regeneration. Through cell fusion somatic cells undergo rapid nuclear reprogramming and epigenetic modifications to form ...

Tumor Hybrid Cells: Nature and Biological Significance
Metastasis is the leading cause of cancer death and can be realized through the phenomenon of tumor cell fusion. The fusion of tumor cells with other tumor or normal cells leads to the appearance of tumor hybrid cells (THCs) exhibiting novel properties ...

Filopodia powered by class x myosin promote fusion of mammalian myoblasts
Skeletal muscle fibers are multinucleated cellular giants formed by the fusion of mononuclear myoblasts. Several molecules involved in myoblast fusion have been discovered, and finger-like projections coincident with myoblast fusion have also been ...

Cell–cell fusion is a highly regulated and dramatic cellular event that is required for development and homeostasis. Fusion may also play a role in the development of cancer and in tissue repair by stem cells. While virus–cell fusion and the fusion of intracellular membranes have been the subject of intense investigation during the past decade, cell ...
