Cell migration affects all morphogenetic processes and contributes to numerous diseases, including cancer and cardiovascular disease. Cell migration begins with protrusion of the cell membrane, ...

Non-muscle myosin II (NM II) is a hexameric actin-binding protein that is formed of two heavy chains, two essential light chains and two regulatory light chains. Its conformation and function are ...

Scope:This Research Topic explores how disruption of epithelial integrity drives the initiation, progression, and treatment response of squamous cell ...

Focal adhesion kinase (FAK), a key mediator of cell adhesion and migration, is frequently upregulated in glioblastoma (GBM), where its activity has been associated with increased tumor invasiveness ...

Explore the latest research on cell adhesion and migration, including mechanisms of tissue formation, cancer metastasis, and cellular dynamics.

Explore how space oncology could transform cancer treatment through microgravity research and innovative drug development ...

VAS-101, a curcumin-based gel for SCD, was well tolerated and showed signs of easing sickle cell pain, fatigue, and red blood ...

Abstract: Cellular shear adhesion, which is the adhesion between cells and the substrates, plays an important role in cell activities. This article aimed to develop a robotic system with automated ...

Dental enamel is the hardest substance in the human body, protecting teeth from wear, temperature changes, and decay. However, enamel cannot regenerate once damaged. Inherited disorders, such as ...

A patient-derived KDF1 mutation was found to impair enamel formation by disrupting cell adhesion and Hippo-YAP signaling in ...

Bone tissue engineering (BTE) has emerged as a critical solution for repairing large bone defects caused by trauma, infection ...

Abstract: Nonthermal plasmas can be used to locally influence cell adhesion: cells can be removed from their surroundings without causing necrosis. In fact, cells remain alive and can reattach within ...
