Microglia cells, as the resident immune cells of the central nervous system (CNS), are highly motile and migratory in development and pathophysiological conditions. During their migration, microglia cells interact with their surroundings based on the various physical and chemical properties in the brain. Herein, a microfluidic wound-healing chip is develo ...

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 ...

Cancer progression is associated with alternations in the cytoskeletal architecture of cells and, consequently, their mechanical properties such as stiffness. Changing the mechanics of cells enables cancer cells to migrate and invade to distant organ sites. This process, metastasis, is the main reason for cancer-related mortality. Cell migration is an ess ...
