Cell migration is essential for embryonic development, it occurs in adult organisms during processes like wound healing and its misregulation contributes to pathological conditions such as metastasis. Despite this, most studies of cell migration have been undertaken in vitro. En…
The PI3K-Akt signalling pathway is a well-established driver of cancer progression. One key process promoted by Akt phosphorylation is tumour cell motility; however the mechanism of VEGF-induced Akt phosphorylation leading to motility remains poorly understood. Previously, it ha…
First published in 1988: This comprehensive set is crucial to the basic understanding of the immune system and is an essential component of the design and implementation of improved immunization strategies. Contains authoritative reviews of cell migration research and addresses …
First Published in 1987: The problems which have been selected for this volume deal with those most commonly observed in in vivo events, such as antigenic stimulation and lymphocyte traffic, migration of natural killer cells, regulation of lymphocyte traffic by adrenal hormones.
The primary objective of this research was to identify and characterize tumor-related genes and transcriptional or signaling modulators that affect cell adhesion and motility, and to characterize their mode(s) of activity. Identification of pro-migratory genes is critical to our…
There is currently a lack of methods to prepare molecularly well-defined model substrates for studies of cell adhesion and cell migration. Most of these studies are performed on substrates that are coated with extracellular matrix proteins to which cells can attach. The limitati…
