Tunneling Nanotubes: Implications for Chemoresistance

Tunneling nanotubes (TNTs) are thin, membranous protrusions that connect cells and allow for the transfer of various molecules, including proteins, organelles, and genetic material. TNTs have been implicated in a wide range of biological processes, including intercellular communication, drug resistance, and viral transmission. In cancer, they have been

Structure and elastic properties of tunneling nanotubes

European Biophysics Journal, 2007
We investigate properties of a reported new mechanism for cell-cell interactions, tunneling nanotubes (TNT's). TNT's mediate actin-based transfer of vesicles and organelles and they allow signal transmission between cells. The effects of lateral pulling with polystyrene beads trapped by optical tweezers on TNT's linking separate U-87 MG human ...

Tunneling Spectroscopy in Carbon Nanotube-Hexagonal Boron Nitride-Carbon Nanotube Heterojunctions

Nano Letters, 2020
Electron tunneling spectroscopy is a powerful technique to probe the unique physical properties of one-dimensional (1D) single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs), such as the van Hove singularities in the density of states or the power-law tunneling probability of a Luttinger liquid.

Nanotube ferroelectric tunnel junctions with an ultrahigh tunneling electroresistance ratio

Materials Horizons
Low-dimensional ferroelectric tunnel junctions are appealing for the realization of nanoscale nonvolatile memory devices due to their inherent advantages of device miniaturization.

Prions hijack tunnelling nanotubes for intercellular spread

Nature Cell Biology, 2009
In variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, prions (PrP(Sc)) enter the body with contaminated foodstuffs and can spread from the intestinal entry site to the central nervous system (CNS) by intercellular transfer from the lymphoid system to the peripheral nervous system (PNS). Although several means and different cell types have been proposed to have a role,

Intercellular Tunneling Nanotubes as Natural Biophotonic Conveyors

ACS Nano
Tunneling nanotubes (TNTs), submicrometer membranous channels that bridge and connect distant cells, play a pivotal role in intercellular communication. Organelle transfer within TNTs is crucial in regulating cell growth, signal transmission, and disease progression.
