Blebbing cells were a mysterious, and underrated, curiosity until recently. Although some isolated studies from the past 30 years had suggested that blebbing is important for cell motility ...

Fz/PCP signalling regulates cell motility in the contexts of convergent extension and ommatidial rotation, in which these polarizing signals might regulate cell adhesive contacts through the ...

How cells changing their shape or moving orchestrate their cytoskeleton? Cells and tissues are not static structures, but during development they change their size and shape and migrate. Plasticity of ...

This tissue remodeling relies on the integration of multiple cellular processes, including cell polarity, motility, and adhesion. Moreover, these processes are directly modulated by communication ...

A new way to measure male fertility has been discovered by researchers at the University of Waterloo, opening the door to the ...

Read on to learn more about sperm motility, how it's measured, and how it impacts fertility. Sperm are motile cells, which ...

Mycoplasmas, including bacteria that cause pneumonia in humans, are generally nonmotile, but Mycoplasma mobile, as the ...

The OMU-led research team has been working since 1997 to clarify M. mobile's motility mechanisms. This time, with the help of Osaka University's cryo-electron microscopy equipment, the scientists ...
