Cell Migration through Extracellular Matrix
Every so often, a paper comes along that brings clarity to an issue. Clarity is not necessarily a final resolution, but rather a conceptual framework for productively addressing that issue. Such a paper could be based on a breakthrough discovery, an intriguing observation, a flash of intuition , or a systematic analysis. An excellent example of the latter is in this issue of The Journal of Cell...
متن کاملThe extracellular matrix and cell migration.
As we know all too well, pancreatic cancer has a very poor prognosis largely due to its early tendency to invade, locally and distantly. Recently, scientists in the field have increasingly focused on the desmoplastic reaction, which is characteristic of most pancreatic cancers. This reaction is associated with proliferation of fibroblastic cells, sometimes outnumbering local tumor cells, and co...
متن کاملINFLUENCE OF NERVE TISSUE-DERIVED NEUROTRANSMITTERS ON MAST CELL MIGRATION
In vitro culture systems using bone marrow cells from BALB/C mice were set up in medium supplemented with spleen-derived medium. Bone marrow cells grown in spleen-derived medium gave rise to cultures containing >97% mast cells. The cells were used in polarisation chemotaxis assays with the intention of determining the effect of nerve tissue-derived neurotransmitters on mast cell migration. ...
متن کاملThe neural cell adhesion molecule L1 potentiates integrin-dependent cell migration to extracellular matrix proteins.
The L1 adhesion molecule regulates axon growth and is mutated in the X-linked mental retardation syndrome CRASH (acronym for corpus callosum agenesis, retardation, aphasia, spastic paraplegia, hydrocephalus). A novel role for L1 as a potentiator of neuronal cell migration to extracellular matrix proteins through beta1 integrins and intracellular signaling to mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kina...
متن کاملCell migration and polarity on microfabricated gradients of extracellular matrix proteins.
This paper explores the effects of the surface density and concentration profiles of extra cellular matrix proteins on the migration of rat intestinal IEC-6 cells. Microfluidic devices were used to create linear, immobilized gradients of laminin. This study investigated both the impact of the steepness and local concentrations on the directedness of cell migration. The bulk concentrations of pr...
