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 ...

Quantitative Analysis of Cell Motility and Chemotaxis in Dictyostelium discoideum by Using an Image Processing System and a Novel Chemotaxis Chamber Providing Stationary Chemical Gradients [PDF]
, 1989 An image processing system was programmed to automatically track and digitize the movement of amebae under phase-contrast microscopy. The amebae moved in a novel chemotaxis chamber designed to provide stable linear attractant gradients in a thin agarose ...

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 ...

Chemotaxis- and locomotion-test plates.
, 2023 (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.

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 ...

The Novel Protein Cj0371 Inhibits Chemotaxis of Campylobacter jejuni
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018 cj0371 is a novel gene that is associated with Campylobacter jejuni virulence, and an isogenic mutant of cj0371 showed hyper chemotaxis and motility. Chemotactic motility is an important virulence factor and is involved in C.

THE CHEMOSUPPRESSION OF CHEMOTAXIS [PDF]
The Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1966 The effects of various drugs on chemotaxis of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN's) in vitro and in vivo have been studied. Response of rabbit PMN's in vitro to the chemotactic factor of rabbit serum, consisting of an activated protein-protein complex of the fifth and sixth (and probably seventh) components of complement (C'), is suppressed by ...
