Inflammation is ubiquitous in the body, triggering desirable immune response to defend
against dangerous signals or instigating undesirable damage to cells and tissues to cause …

Energy deprivation is a frequent adverse event in tumors that is caused by mutations,
malperfusion, hypoxia, and nutrition deficit. The resulting bioenergetic stress leads to …

The development and maintenance of tissues requires collective cell movement, during
which neighbouring cells coordinate the polarity of their migration machineries. Here, we …

Cell‐matrix adhesions play essential roles in a variety of biological processes. Herein, we
report a label‐free method to map cell‐matrix adhesions of single living cells on an …

Studies of nanomedicine have achieved dramatic progress in recent decades. However, the
main challenges that traditional nanomedicine has to overcome include low accumulation at …

Cell migration is essential for the development and maintenance of multicellular organisms,
contributing to embryogenesis, wound healing, immune response, and other critical …

Cell migration is crucial for physiological and pathological processes such as
morphogenesis, wound repair, immune response and cancer invasion/metastasis. There are …

Abstract Development, regeneration and cancer involve drastic transitions in tissue
morphology. In analogy with the behaviour of inert fluids, some of these transitions have …

Regulating the emergence of leaders is a central aspect of collective cell migration, but the
underlying mechanisms remain ambiguous. Here we show that the selective emergence of …

Cells exhibit morphological and molecular asymmetries that are broadly categorized as cell
polarity. The cell polarity established in early embryos prefigures the macroscopic …
