Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) are a promising resource for cell-based therapy
because of their high immunomodulation ability, tropism towards inflamed and injured …

The past decade has seen an explosion of research directed toward better understanding of
the mechanisms of mesenchymal stem/stromal cell (MSC) function during rescue and repair …

Tunneling nanotubes (TNTs) are F-actin-based membrane tubes that form between cells in
culture and in tissues. They mediate intercellular communication ranging from electrical …

A given cell makes exchanges with its neighbors through a variety of means ranging from
diffusible factors to vesicles. Cells use also tunneling nanotubes (TNTs), filamentous-actin …

Synucleinopathies such as Parkinson's disease are characterized by the pathological
deposition of misfolded α‐synuclein aggregates into inclusions throughout the central and …

Our vision of cancer has changed during the past decades. Indeed tumors are now
perceived as complex entities where tumoral and stromal components interact closely …

Cell-to-cell communication is essential for the organization, coordination, and development
of cellular networks and multi-cellular systems. Intercellular communication is mediated by …

Abstract The identification of Tunneling Nanotubes (TNTs) and TNT‐like structures signified
a critical turning point in the field of cell‐cell communication. With hypothesized roles in …

Tunneling nanotubes are long, non-adherent F-actin-based cytoplasmic extensions which
connect proximal or distant cells and facilitate intercellular transfer. The identification of …

Neurons and glia maintain central nervous system (CNS) homeostasis through diverse
mechanisms of intra-and intercellular signaling. Some of these interactions include the …
