چکیده

How chemoattractant gradients form and persist in complex tissues is a key question in cell migration. Two studies now show that CXCR7 acts as a sink in the migrating zebrafish lateral line primordium to generate SDF1 gradients.

The Role of Human Adult Peripheral and Umbilical Cord Blood Platelet-Rich Plasma on Proliferation and Migration of Human Skin Fibroblasts

BACKGROUND Wound healing is a complex and dynamic process following damage in tissue structures. Due to extensive skin damage caused by burn injuries, this study determined the role of human adult peripheral and umbilical cord blood platelet-rich plasma on proliferation and migration in human skin fibroblasts. METHODS Platelet-rich plasma (5, 10, 15, 20 and 50% PRP) from human umbilica...

Using a Temperature Gradient against the Time in Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis May Eliminate the Need for Stacking Gels

Background and Objectives: Making stacking gels for polyacrylamide gels in the laboratory by conventional methods is laborious and time consuming. Considering the role of temperature in polyacrylamide gels with respect to electrical resistance and viscosity, we assumed that decreasing the temperature would cause an increase in electrical resistance and viscosity.  Ultimately, a downward tempera...

A survey on random walk-based stochastic modeling in eukaryotic cell migration with emphasis on its application in cancer

Impairments in cell migration processes may cause various diseases, among which cancer cell metastasis, tumor angiogenesis, and the disability of immune cells to infiltrate into tumors are prominent ones. Mathematical modeling has been widely used to analyze the cell migration process. Cell migration is a complicated process and requires statistical methods such as random walk for proper analys...

Extended isochron rays in prestack depth „map... migration

Many processes in seismic data analysis and seismic imaging can be identified with solution operators of evolution equations. These include data downward continuation and velocity continuation. We have addressed the question of whether isochrons defined by imaging operators can be identified with wavefronts of solutions to an evolution equation. Rays associated with this equation then would pro...
