During embryonic development, neural crest cells (NCC) delaminate or split into layers ... Here, we focus on how the migration of melanoma cells is affected by SDF1 and its receptors, CXCR4 and CXCR7.

Neural crest cells differentiate to form the peripheral nervous system ... Long-term effects of PAE on migration have also been evaluated. Miller et al. describe the harmful effects of alcohol on ...

Cells are constantly on the move, whether in a developing embryo or metastatic cancer. But how do cells adapt to the new ...

and multiple modes of neuronal migration. It has been convincingly demonstrated by numerous studies that radial glial cells are neural stem cells. However, the processes by which neurons arise ...

The study is the first to show that a neurotechnology can be engineered to reverse degeneration of neural circuits and rescue cell function in a human neurodegenerative disease. "To counteract ...

Feb. 4, 2025 — Research has shown that a potential new targeted therapy for childhood brain cancer is effective in infiltrating and killing tumor cells in preclinical models tested in mice.

How the disruption of these signaling cascades leads to abnormal patterns of neuronal migration in vivo is not yet clearly understood. Recent studies have produced several advances in our ...

This essay is part of The Great Migration, a series by Lydia Polgreen exploring how people are moving around the world today. We are living in an age of mass migration. Millions of people from the ...

While prokaryotic cells do not have membrane-bound structures, they do have distinct cellular regions (Figure 1). In prokaryotic cells, DNA bundles together in a region called the nucleoid. Primitive ...

Newly discovered brain cells count each bite before sending the order to cease eating a meal. Columbia scientists have found specialized neurons in the brains of mice that order the animals to ...
