A protein that helps generate the force needed for single cells to move works differently in cells moving in groups, a new study shows. A protein that helps generate the force needed for single cells ...

Inside every living cell, proteins and membranes are in constant motion, reshaping, colliding, and flexing as they keep an ...

Cells have always hummed with activity. They make their own energy, package it into molecules like ATP, and spend it ...

A recent study from the School of Engineering & Applied Science took a key step in breaking down the complex, and often misunderstood, patterns behind how cells move through the body. Published in the ...

Scientists have uncovered a surprising viral shortcut that turns moving cells into delivery vehicles for infection. Instead ...

Living cells may generate electricity through the natural motion of their membranes. These fast electrical signals could play ...

Behavior of a spherical capsule in a pulsatile flow. A single capsule moving in the direction of the flow is superimposed. Fukuoka, Japan—As you read this sentence, trillions of cells are moving ...

With the Cell Sedimentation Manifold from Creative Scientific Methods, Inc., migration assays are convenient and reproducible Studies of cell migration can reveal much in the study of cancer, ...

Life begins with a single fertilized cell that gradually transforms into a multicellular organism. This process requires ...

The chemicals that cells leach onto their path may determine how far they can crawl. Cells crawl for many reasons, including to help heal a wound or, in the case of cancer cells, to metastasise. But ...

In tumors, cells follow microscopic fibers, comparable to following roads through a city. Researchers at Rochester Institute of Technology developed a new technique to study different features of ...

Pictured here is a group of cells moving toward its correct final position in the tail of a forming zebrafish embryo. Cell membranes are green and the cell nuclei red. A protein that helps generate ...
