Lennartz et al. evaluate lipid enrichment in clathrin-coated pits and observe that the differential lipid partitioning into clathrin-coated pits is largely driven by the lipid asymmetry of the plasma ...

The Cell Migration Lab in Turku studies cell migration, cancer–vascular interactions and filopodia using microscopy and quantitative image analysis.

Neuronal migration is essential for establishing functional tissue architecture in the developing central nervous system. While cell-intrinsic mechanisms driving neuronal movement have been identified...

FocalPlane features... cell migration recordings with Ankita Jha, Raphaël Clément and Katrina Velle - News

The amoeba Incendiamoeba cascadensis demonstrates that eukaryotic life can withstand temperatures beyond what was thought possible and sheds light on molecular strategies for survival in extreme heat.

Ning Xu - Abnormal beating of airway cilia from a child with Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD), a genetic disorder affecting respiratory function.

During development and regeneration, tissues undergo large-scale remodelling and it remains unclear how such morphogenetic movements influence immune cell guidance. A study by Le et al. shows that ect...

Cells undergo membrane remodeling in response to the environment to perform specific functions. Now, a cytometry-based method with immune cell biomarker analysis captures variations in plasma membrane...

Capillary-associated macrophages are selectively lost over time, contributing to impaired vascular repair and reduced tissue perfusion in older mice.

Le et al. show that in Xenopus embryos, local ectodermal tissue flows provide a directional cue that polarizes and guides embryonic myeloid cells migration via cell-on-cell interactions.
