More Than Just Attractive: How CCL2 Influences Myeloid Cell Behavior Beyond Chemotaxis
Frontiers in Immunology, 2019 Monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1/CCL2) is renowned for its ability to drive the chemotaxis of myeloid and lymphoid cells. It orchestrates the migration of these cell types both during physiological immune defense and in pathological ...

Inhibition of Escherichia coli chemotaxis by omega-conotoxin, a calcium ion channel blocker [PDF]
, 1993 Escherichia coli chemotaxis was inhibited by omega-conotoxin, a calcium ion channel blocker. With Tris-EDTA-permeabilized cells, nanomolar levels of omega-conotoxin inhibited chemotaxis without loss of motility.

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 ...

A new class of protein sensor links spirochete pleomorphism, persistence, and chemotaxis
mBio, 2023 Pathogenic spirochetes can alter their morphologies and behaviors to infect and survive within their hosts. Previous reports demonstrate that the formation of the so-called “round bodies” and biofilms, and chemotaxis are involved in spirochete ...

Fundamental constraints on the abundances of chemotaxis proteins [PDF]
Biophys. J. 108(5): 1293-1305 (2015), 2015 Flagellated bacteria, such as Escherichia coli, perform directed motion in gradients of concentration of attractants and repellents in a process called chemotaxis. The E. coli chemotaxis signaling pathway is a model for signal transduction, but it has unique features.

Bacterial chemotaxis: a way forward to aromatic compounds biodegradation
Environmental Sciences Europe, 2020 Worldwide industrial development has released hazardous polycyclic aromatic compounds into the environment. These pollutants need to be removed to improve the quality of the environment.

On an exponential attractor for a class of PDEs with degenerate diffusion and chemotaxis [PDF]
, 2017 In this article we deal with a class of strongly coupled parabolic systems that encompasses two different effects: degenerate diffusion and chemotaxis.

Tracking bifurcating solutions of a model biological pattern generator [PDF]
, 1990 We study heterogeneous steady-state solutions of a cell-chemotaxis model for generating biological spatial patterns in two-dimensional domains with zero flux boundary conditions.

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.
