A critical step in the life cycle of a virus is spread to a new target cell, which generally involves the release of new viral particles from the infected cell which can then initiate infection in the next target cell. ...

Both single cell migration and collective cell movements play a key role in many physiological and pathological processes related to development and morphogenesis, immune response and neoplastic diseases. Cell motility ...

Proteinase-activated receptors (PAR) are widely recognized for their modulatory properties in inflammatory and immune responses; however, their direct role on phagocyte effector functions remains unknown. S100A9, a protein ...

Cell migration is critical for several physiological and pathophysiological processes. It depends on the coordinated action of kinases, phosphatases, Rho-GTPases proteins, and Ca2+ signaling. Interestingly, ubiquitination ...

After initiation of an infective cycle, spread of virus infection can occur fundamentally in two different ways: (i) viral particles can be released into the external environment and diffuse through the extracellular space ...

Different viruses rely on direct cell-to-cell transmission to propagate infection within the infected host. Measuring this mode of transmission in cultured cells is often complicated by the contribution of cell free viruses ...

A case of parietal cell (oncocytic) adenocarcinoma in a 62-year-old woman is reported. This rare entity has 26 reported cases to date and is usually related to male gender and localized disease with favorable prognosis. ...
