How do changes in adhesion and migration pathways underlie immune disorders, developmental defects and cancer cell invasion and metastasis? Clearly, understanding the fundamental mechanisms that ...

Load-dependent effects might also provide a simple mechanism to control cell morphology ... this discussion is the experimental finding that adhesion seems to be a continuum property of the ...

A new study shows how an anticancer drug triggers an "outside in" signal that gets it sucked into a cancer cell. The work, ...

July 27, 2021 — New research has uncovered an essential mechanism coordinating the processes of cell division and adhesion within humans. This discovery has profound potential for advancing ...

They observed that this adhesion site is transformed ... The scientists have uncovered a mechanism in which coordinated tensile forces along cell-cell junctions promote coordinated growth of ...

These molecules, upregulated in cancer cells, are excreted through a surprising mechanism—lysosomal exocytosis ... doors to understanding cancer cell adhesion and migration and exploring ...

A team of researchers at Åbo Akademi University in Finland made a surprising discovery. They found that Talin-1, a protein primarily known for its role in cell adhesion at the periphery of the ...

and mechanisms of cell death. We investigate cell death mechanisms that have unique effects on cell populations, including entosis that supports the survival of starved cells and promotes cell ...

A new study shows how an anticancer drug triggers an 'outside in' signal that gets it sucked into a cancer cell. The work reveals a new signaling mechanism that could be exploited for delivering other ...
