Microglial cells, or brain immune cells, are highly dynamic and continuously migrate in pathophysiological conditions. Their adhesion, as a physical characteristic, plays a key role in migration. In this study, we presented a microfluidic chip combination of two assays: a microglial BV2 adhesion assay and a wound-healing migration assay. The chip could cr ...

Bacillus anthracis is a gram positive, deadly spore forming bacteria causing anthrax and these bacteria having the complex mechanism in the cell wall envelope, which can adopt the changes in environmental conditions. In this, the membrane bound cell wall proteins are said to progressive drug target for the inhibition of Bacillus anthracis. Among the cell ...

Complex structures derived from multiple tissue types are challenging to study in vivo, and our knowledge of how cells from different tissues are coordinated is limited. Model organisms have proven invaluable for improving our understanding of how chemical and mechanical cues between cells from two different tissues can govern specific morphogenetic event ...
