Modeling emergent tissue organization involving high-speed migrating cells in a flow equilibrium

open access: yes, 2007
There is increasing interest in the analysis of biological tissue, its organization and its dynamics with the help of mathematical models. In the ideal case emergent properties on the tissue scale can be derived from the cellular scale. However, this has

Sirt1 and cell migration [PDF]

open access: yesCell Adhesion & Migration, 2010
Sirt1 is a type III histone deacetylase implicated in a wide range of physiological and pathophysiological roles. Acting though a myriad of non-histone substrates, Sirt1 modulates transcriptional regulation of energy metabolism and stress response, with important consequences on cell survival and a myriad of human pathologies.

Cell Migration, Freshly Squeezed [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2015
Migrating cells exhibit distinct motility modes and can switch between modes based on chemical or physical cues. Liu et al. and Ruprecht et al. now describe how confinement and contractility influence motility mode plasticity and instigate a mode termed stable bleb migration in embryonic and tumor cells.

Integrins in Cell Migration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Integrins are cell-surface adhesion receptors that play a central role in regulating cell migration by mediating interactions between the extracellular matrix and the actin cytoskeleton. Substantial progress has been made in understanding the mechanisms by which the formation and breakdown of adhesions are regulated.

Engineered extracellular vesicles enriched with the miR‐214/199a cluster enhance the efficacy of chemotherapy in ovarian cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Loss of the miR‐214/199a cluster is associated with recurrence in ovarian cancer. Engineered small extracellular vesicles (m214‐sEVs) elevate miR‐214‐3p/miR‐199a‐5p in tumor cells, suppress β‐catenin, TLR4, and YKT6 signaling, reprogram tumor‐derived sEV cargo, reduce chemoresistance and migration, and enhance carboplatin efficacy and survival in ...

The roles and regulation of the actin cytoskeleton, intermediate filaments and microtubules in smooth muscle cell migration

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2017
Smooth muscle cell migration has been implicated in the development of respiratory and cardiovascular systems; and airway/vascular remodeling. Cell migration is a polarized cellular process involving a protrusive cell front and a retracting trailing rear.

Keratin 19 as a prognostic marker and contributing factor of metastasis and chemoresistance in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Keratin 19 (KRT19) is overexpressed in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer with high levels of Kallikrein‐related peptidases (KLK) 4–7 and is associated with poor survival. In vivo analyses demonstrate that elevated KRT19 increases peritoneal tumour burden.

Dealing with the nucleus during cell migration.

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Cell Biology, 2018
The position of the nucleus within cells is a key event during cell migration. The movement and positioning of the nucleus strongly impacts cell migration.

Somatic mutational landscape in von Hippel–Lindau familial hemangioblastoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The causes of central nervous system (CNS) hemangioblastoma in Von Hippel–Lindau (vHL) disease are unclear. We used Whole Exome Sequencing (WES) on familial hemangioblastoma to investigate events that underlie tumor development. Our findings suggest that VHL loss creates a permissive environment for tumor formation, while additional alterations ...

Wnt5a induces ROR1 to recruit cortactin to promote breast-cancer migration and metastasis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
ROR1 is a conserved oncoembryonic surface protein expressed in breast cancer. Here we report that ROR1 associates with cortactin in primary breast-cancer cells or in MCF7 transfected to express ROR1.
