Pulses of RhoA signaling stimulate actin polymerization and flow in protrusions to drive collective cell migration

W Qian, N Yamaguchi, P Lis, M Cammer, H Knaut - Current Biology, 2024 - cell.com
In animals, cells often move as collectives to shape organs, close wounds, or—in the case of
disease—metastasize. To accomplish this, cells need to generate force to propel themselves …
