Cell migration at a glance [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cell Science, 2005
Cell migration is a fundamental process, from simple, uni-cellular organisms such as amoeba, to complex multi-cellular organisms such as mammals. Whereas its main functions comprise mating and the search for food in simple organisms ([Manahan et al., 2004][1]), complexity brings a requirement ...

Class I Myosins, molecular motors involved in cell migration and cancer

open access: yesCell Adhesion & Migration, 2022
Class I Myosins are a subfamily of motor proteins with ATPase activity and a characteristic structure conserved in all myosins: A N-Terminal Motor Domain, a central Neck and a C terminal Tail domain. Humans have eight genes for these myosins.

Therapeutic Targeting Cancer-Initiating Cell Markers by Exosome miRNA: Efficacy and Functional Consequences Exemplified for claudin7 and EpCAM

open access: yesTranslational Oncology, 2019
AIM: Transfer of exosomes (Exo) miRNA was described interfering with tumor progression. We here explored for claudin7 (cld7) and EpCAM (EpC), cancer-initiating-cell markers in colorectal and pancreatic cancer, the efficacy of Exo loading with miRNA and ...

Heterogeneities in Nanog Expression Drive Stable Commitment to Pluripotency in the Mouse Blastocyst

open access: yesCell Reports, 2015
The pluripotent epiblast (EPI) is the founder tissue of almost all somatic cells. EPI and primitive endoderm (PrE) progenitors arise from the inner cell mass (ICM) of the blastocyst-stage embryo. The EPI lineage is distinctly identified by its expression

Novel role of Dipterocarpus tuberculatus as a stimulator of focal cell adhesion through the regulation of MLC2/FAK/Akt signaling pathway

open access: yesCell Adhesion & Migration, 2022
To investigate a novel function of Dipterocarpus tuberculatus on focal cell adhesion stimulation, alterations to the regulation of focal cell adhesion-related factors were analyzed in NHDF cells and a calvarial defect rat model after treatment with ...

Imaging of cell migration [PDF]

open access: yesThe EMBO Journal, 2006
Cell migration is an essential process during many phases of development and adult life. Cells can either migrate as individuals or move in the context of tissues. Movement is controlled by internal and external signals, which activate complex signal transduction cascades resulting in highly dynamic and localised remodelling of the cytoskeleton, cell ...

Cathelicidin LL-37 promotes EMT, migration and metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma cells in vitro and mouse model

open access: yesCell Adhesion & Migration, 2023
The effect of cathelicidin hCAP18/LL-37 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) metastasis remains unclear. Here, we confirmed that LL-37 expression enhanced endothelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), migration and invasion in HCC cells.

The role of actin protrusion dynamics in cell migration through a degradable viscoelastic extracellular matrix: Insights from a computational model.

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2020
Actin protrusion dynamics plays an important role in the regulation of three-dimensional (3D) cell migration. Cells form protrusions that adhere to the surrounding extracellular matrix (ECM), mechanically probe the ECM and contract in order to displace ...

Scribble, Lgl1, and myosin IIA interact with α-/β-catenin to maintain epithelial junction integrity

open access: yesCell Adhesion & Migration, 2023
E-cadherin-catenin complex together with the cytoskeleton, builds the core of Adherens junctions (AJs). It has been reported that Scribble stabilizes the coupling of E-cadherin with catenins promoting epithelial cell adhesion, but the mechanism remains ...

Dynamized ultra-low dilution of Ruta graveolens disrupts plasma membrane organization and decreases migration of melanoma cancer cell

open access: yesCell Adhesion & Migration, 2023
Cutaneous melanoma is a cancer with a very poor prognosis mainly because of metastatic dissemination and therefore a deregulation of cell migration. Current therapies can benefit from complementary medicines as supportive care in oncology.
