Konstanz researchers identify an enzyme that plays a role in the migration of cells in our body—not only during normal tissue formation and wound healing, but also when tumor cells metastasize. This ...

Cell migration is a multistep process essential to various physiological functions, including immune cell movement and embryonic development, as well as pathological conditions like tumor metastasis.

A new study integrated mathematical modeling with advanced imaging to discover that the physical shape of the fruit fly egg chamber, combined with chemical signals, significantly influences how cells ...

An illustration of zebrafish heart development, showing the migration of cells in the growing embryo after 17 hours, 1 day and 2 days to form the heart. Most heart cells come from the embryonic ...
