Imagine cells navigating through a complex maze, guided by chemical signals and the physical landscape of their environment. A team of researchers at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC ...

To ascertain that the cellar geometry really was responsible for the border cells' path, the paper's other lead author Xiaoran Guo, a doctoral student in Montell's lab, looked at mutated egg ...

Scientists at Nagoya University in Japan studied what happens when macrophages—a type of immune cell—encounter dying cancer ...

The thin, single-cell boundary where a tumor meets normal tissue is the most dangerous part of a cancer according to a new study by scientists at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis.

“This paper takes us from very fundamental cell biology in a fly, ... For this to occur, the border cells need to recognize their targets, which requires a particular receptor.

The polar cells have no moving ability, so they must recruit the surrounding six to eight cells to border them and carry them away. When it's time to go, the pair sends a signal, a cytokine-like ...

An ambitious project launched in 2016 has made a dent in one of biology’s greatest challenges — with more than 3,600 researchers profiling more than 100 million cells. CNN values your feedback 1.

Understanding the mechanisms of collective cell migration is crucial for cancer metastasis, wound healing and many developmental processes. Imaging a migrating cluster in vivo is feasible, but the ...
