The current special issue entitled “Role of tunneling nanotubes (TNTs) in carcinogenesis”
was designed to discuss the role of cell‐to‐cell communication, especially TNTs, in cancer …

Tunneling nanotubes (TNTs) are actin-based cytoplasmic extensions that directly transfer
cellular cargo between connected cells. Intercellular transport of signaling molecules and …

Intercellular communication is vital to the ecosystem of cancer cell organization and
invasion. Identification of key cellular cargo and their varied modes of transport are important …

Tunneling nanotubes (TNTs) are intercellular conduits, which meet the communication
needs of non-adjacent cells situated in the same tissue but at distances up to a few hundred …

The interaction between tumor cells and macrophages is crucial in promoting tumor invasion
and metastasis. In this study, we examined a novel mechanism of intercellular …

Tunneling nanotubes (TNTs) are thin membrane tubes connecting remote cells and allowing
the transfer of cellular content. TNTs have been reported in several cancer in vitro, ex vivo …

Tunneling nanotubes (TnTs) are thin channels that temporally connect nearby cells allowing
the cell-to-cell trafficking of biomolecules and organelles. The presence or absence of TnTs …

Tunneling nanotubes are actin-based cytoplasmic extensions that function as intercellular
channels in a wide variety of cell types. There is a renewed and keen interest in the …

It is well established that the role of the tumor microenvironment (TME) in cancer
progression and therapeutic resistance is crucial, but many of the underlying mechanisms …

Simple Summary Tunneling nanotubes (TNTs) are cytoplasmic channels which regulate the
contacts between cells and allow the transfer of several elements, including ions …
