Melanoma cells break down LPA to establish local gradients that drive chemotactic dispersal. [PDF]
, 2014 The high mortality of melanoma is caused by rapid spread of cancer cells, which occurs unusually early in tumour evolution. Unlike most solid tumours, thickness rather than cytological markers or differentiation is the best guide to metastatic potential.

An improved chamber for direct visualisation of chemotaxis [PDF]
, 2010 There has been a growing appreciation over the last decade that chemotaxis plays an important role in cancer migration, invasion and metastasis. Research into the field of cancer cell chemotaxis is still in its infancy and traditional investigative tools

Synergistic effect of CNTF and GDNF on directed neurite growth in chick embryo dorsal root ganglia.
PLoS ONE, 2020 It is often critical to improve the limited regenerative capacity of the peripheral nerves and direct neural growth towards specific targets, such as surgically implanted bioengineered constructs.

A Chemotactic Factor for Mononuclear Leukocytes
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1971 SummaryChemotactic activity for mononuclear leukocytes was produced when highly purified guinea pig C5 was cleaved by trypsin or by the earlier acting complement components. This chemotactic activity was mediated by C5a, a fragmentation product of the fifth component of complement.

PLoS ONE, 2020 Soft tissue is composed of cells surrounded by an extracellular matrix that is made up of a diverse array of intricately organized proteins. These distinct components work in concert to maintain homeostasis and respond to tissue damage.

HiSAT: A Novel Method for the Rapid Diagnosis of Allergy
Bio-Protocol, 2022 To identify causative substances for allergies to drugs or foods, the lymphocyte transformation test (LTT) is currently widely used as in vitro test, but its accuracy is not satisfactory.

Host transcriptional responses following ex vivo re-challenge with Mycobacterium tuberculosis vary with disease status. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 The identification of immune correlates that are predictive of disease outcome for tuberculosis remains an ongoing challenge. To address this issue, we evaluated gene expression profiles from peripheral blood mononuclear cells following ex vivo challenge

Damaged male germ cells induce epididymitis in mice
Asian Journal of Andrology, 2020 Epididymitis can be caused by infectious and noninfectious etiological factors. While microbial infections are responsible for infectious epididymitis, the etiological factors contributing to noninfectious epididymitis remain to be defined.

Contribution of corneal neovascularization to dendritic cell migration into the central area during human corneal infection. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Compared with the peripheral corneal limbus, the human central cornea lacks blood vessels, which is responsible for its immunologically privileged status and high transparency.

PLoS ONE, 2019 BackgroundAfter bone resorption, ions and degraded organic components are co-released into the extracellular space. Ions and growth factors, although different in their biological nature, induce a common and coordinated chemotactic effect.
