Advanced Therapeutics, EarlyView.This review covers the mechanical forces experienced by immune cells through cell–cell and cell–extracellular matrix interactions and how these forces influence their receptors and functions. These relationships between forces and cellular functions can be exploited using engineering techniques to modify the physical properties of materials for novel ...

Microtubule Organization and Microtubule-Associated Proteins (MAPs)
, 2016 Dendrites have a unique microtubule organization. In vertebrates, dendriticmicrotubules are organized in antiparallel bundles, oriented with their plusends either pointing away or toward the soma. The mixed microtubule arrayscontrol intracellular trafficking and local signaling pathways, and are essential fordendrite development and function.

Understanding miR‐200c: an Important Player in Resistance to Cancer Treatment
Advanced Therapeutics, EarlyView.How can one microRNA alter cancer's response to therapy? miR‐200c plays a central role in therapeutic resistance by modulating epithelial‐mesenchymal transition, apoptosis, cancer stemness features, and drug efflux. This review outlines the context‐dependent functions of miR‐200c in various cancers and highlights its potential as both a biomarker and a
