Neutrophils are immune cells with unusual biological features that furnish potent
antimicrobial properties. These cells phagocytose and subsequently kill prokaryotic and …

The past decade has revealed the diversity and ubiquity of archaea in nature, with a growing
number of studies highlighting their importance in ecology, biotechnology and even human …

The dynamic turnover of actin filaments (F-actin) controls cellular motility in eukaryotes and
is coupled to changes in the F-actin nucleotide state,–. It remains unclear how F-actin …

Organisms from all domains of life depend on filaments of the protein actin to provide
structure and to support internal movements. Many eukaryotic cells use forces produced by …

Metastasis, especially intrahepatic, is a major challenge for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)
treatment. Cytoskeleton remodeling has been identified as a vital process mediating …

Simple Summary Cell migration is an essential process from embryogenesis to cell death.
This is tightly regulated by numerous proteins that help in proper functioning of the cell. In …

The epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is intrinsically linked to alterations of the
intracellular cytoskeleton and the extracellular matrix. After EMT, cells acquire an elongated …

Simple Summary The epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a well-documented
process in the study of cancer metastases. The cytoskeleton is an intricate network involved …

The actin cytoskeleton consists of structurally and biochemically different actin filament
arrays. Among them, the actin cortex is thought to have key roles in cell mechanics, but …

Filamentous actin (F-actin) provides cells with mechanical support and promotes the mobility
of intracellular structures. Although F-actin is traditionally considered to be cytoplasmic, here …
