Guvakova MA (2007) Insulin-like growth factors control cell migration in health and disease.
Accelerated wound closure in vitro induced by anti-miR-200c was associated with upregulation of genes controlling cell migration.
We also show the possibility to control cell migration by small pulsed currents.
Wu, Y.C., Tsai, M.C., Cheng, L.C., Chou, C.J. & Weng, N.Y. C. elegans CED-12 acts in the conserved crkII/DOCK180/Rac pathway to control cell migration and cell corpse engulfment.
In addition, roles of other kinases that may phosphorylate PDPN to control cell migration have not been investigated.
Nevertheless, our data describing for the first time a role for Sema3E/PlexinD1 in CR cells reinforce the notion that the vascular and nervous systems share molecular mechanisms controlling cell migration during development.
We thus concluded that the explant played the role of "cell reservoir", controlling cell migration up to a defined ratio of the initial explant volume.
Heterotrimeric G protein signaling is involved in many pathways essential to development including those controlling cell migration, proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis.
Before we can use mechanotaxis to control cell migration on a biomaterial surface, quantitative design criteria for a microelasticity gradient should be established.
These are genes coding for receptors to extra-cellular matrix, for components of this matrix, for matrix proteases or their inhibitors, for cytoplasmic regulators of actin cytoskeleton, or secreted proteins controlling cell migration and therefore cancer cell metastasis.
