Micromachines, 2022 Neutrophil migration in tissues critically regulates the human immune response and can either play a protective role in host defense or cause health problems. Microfluidic chips are increasingly applied to study neutrophil migration, attributing to their

mBio, 2019 Most chemotactic motile bacteria possess multiple chemotaxis signaling systems, the functions of which are not well characterized. Chemotaxis signaling is initiated by chemoreceptors that assemble as large arrays, together with chemotaxis coupling ...

Pediatric Research, 1983 Developmental aspects of monocyte and neutrophil chemotaxis were evaluated by the agarose and the Boyden chamber methods. Simultaneous measurements of both the distances and the cell counts were carried out by the agarose method. Before 6 years of age monocyte chemotaxis values, determined by the Boyden chamber method, were significantly lower than ...

WIREs Systems Biology and Medicine, 2009 AbstractDuring eukaryotic chemotaxis, external chemical gradients guide the crawling motion of cells. This process plays an important role in a large variety of biological systems and has wide ranging medical implications. New experimental techniques including confocal microscopy and microfluidics have advanced our understanding of chemotaxis while ...

Sperm chemotaxis in marine invertebrates and mammals
Reproductive and Developmental Medicine, 2017 Sperm respond to multiple chemical factors derived from the eggs and reorient their migratory direction – a process called chemotaxis. The chemotaxis of sperm in marine invertebrates has been established well.

Journal of Lipid Research, 2013 Monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1)-induced monocyte chemotaxis is a major event in inflammatory disease. Our prior studies have demonstrated that MCP-1-dependent chemotaxis requires release of arachidonic acid (AA) by activated cytosolic ...

TRPM2 ion channels steer neutrophils towards a source of hydrogen peroxide
Scientific Reports, 2021 Neutrophils must navigate accurately towards pathogens in order to destroy invaders and thus defend our bodies against infection. Here we show that hydrogen peroxide, a potent neutrophil chemoattractant, guides chemotaxis by activating calcium-permeable ...
