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 ...

Tumor cells traverse many different types of fluids as they travel through the body. Christoph Burgstedt/Science Photo Library via Getty Images Cell migration, or how cells move in the body, is ...

Cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide, marked by the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells. What makes it ...

Cancer is most deadly when it metastasizes; when cells break away from a primary site of cancer and move through the body, triggering cancer elsewhere. Scientists have now found that some cancer cells ...

Cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide, marked by the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells. What makes it more dangerous is the ability of cancer cells to move quickly through the ...

Inside every living cell, tiny molecular machines are constantly in motion, shifting shapes, tugging on membranes and shuttling ions from one side to the other. That restless activity does more than ...

This article was originally featured on The Conversation. Cell migration, or how cells move in the body, is essential to both normal body function and disease progression. Cell movement is what allows ...

In cooperation with colleagues from Germany, Italy and the Netherlands, researchers at Leipzig University have investigated the structure of tumour tissue and the behaviour of tumour cells in detail, ...

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 ...

Cell migration, or how cells move in the body, is essential to both normal body function and disease progression. Cell movement is what allows body parts to grow in the right place during early ...

Cells can control their ability to move through the body by using a protein called fascin to control the stiffness of neighbouring cells, suggests a new study. Cells can control their ability to move ...
