Sperm chemotaxis in marine invertebrates and mammals
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.

Bacteria use chemotaxis to move to favourable ecological niches. For many pathogenic bacteria, chemotaxis is required for full virulence, particularly for the initiation of host colonisation. There do not appear to be limits to the type of compounds that

Mechanisms of Sperm Chemotaxis
Sperm are attracted by chemical factors that are released by the egg—a process called chemotaxis. Most of our knowledge on sperm chemotaxis originates from the study of marine invertebrates. In recent years, the main features of the chemotactic signaling pathway and the swimming behavior evoked by chemoattractants have been elucidated in sea urchins ...

Chemotaxis : a feedback-based computational model robustly predicts multiple aspects of real cell behaviour [PDF]
The mechanism of eukaryotic chemotaxis remains unclear despite intensive study. The most frequently described mechanism acts through attractants causing actin polymerization, in turn leading to pseudopod formation and cell movement.

Modelling cell movement and chemotaxis pseudopod based feedback [PDF]
A computational framework is presented for the simulation of eukaryotic cell migration and chemotaxis. An empirical pattern formation model, based on a system of non-linear reaction-diffusion equations, is approximated on an evolving cell boundary using ...

A Review of the Advantages, Disadvantages and Limitations of Chemotaxis Assays for Campylobacter spp. [PDF]
Reproducible qualitative and quantitative assessment of bacterial chemotactic motility, particularly in response to chemorepellent effectors, is experimentally challenging.

An improved chamber for direct visualisation of chemotaxis [PDF]
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

Feedback Control Architecture and the Bacterial Chemotaxis Network [PDF]
This paper investigates the chemotaxis behavior of the bacterium R. sphaeroides. We review the results of a recent study comparing different possible mathematical models of this bacterium's chemotaxis decision mechanisms.

Chemotaxis- and locomotion-test plates.
(A) Schematic of a chemotaxis-test plate used for chemotaxis assays, except for tracking analyses of worm locomotion. Fifteen to two hundred worms were used in each assay.
