Abstract:
Cell motility is a prerequisite for the creation of new life, and it is required for maintaining the integrity of an organism. Under pathological conditions, “too much” motility may cause premature death. Studies over the past few years have revealed that ion channels are essential for cell motility. This review highlights the importance of K+ channels in regulating cell motility.

Abstract:
The proposed functions of the interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) are to 1) pace the slow waves and regulate their propagation, 2) mediate enteric neuronal signals to smooth muscle cells, and 3) act as mechanosensors. In addition, impairments of ICC have been implicated in diverse motility disorders. This review critically examines the available evidence for these roles and offers alternate explanations. This review suggests the following: 1) The ICC may not pace the slow waves or help in their propagation. Instead, they may help in maintaining the gradient of resting membrane potential (RMP) th

Abstract:
The motility of living eukaryotic cells is a complex process driven mainly by polymerization and depolymerization of actin filaments underneath the plasmatic membrane (actin cytoskeleton). However, the exact mechanisms through which cells are able to control and employ ‘actin-generated’ mechanical forces, in order to change shape and move in a well-organized and coordinated way, are not quite established.

Abstract:
Motility is a key property of a cell, required for several physiological processes, including embryonic development, axon guidance, tissue regeneration, gastrulation, immune response, and cancer metastasis. Therefore, the ability to examine cell motility, especially at a single cell level, is important for understanding various biological processes. Several different assays are currently available to examine cell motility. However, studying cell motility at a single cell level can be costly and/or challenging. Here, we describe a method of tracking random cell motility on different substrates

In fibroblasts and keratocytes, motility is actin dependent, while microtubules play a secondary role, providing directional guidance.

Such actin independent motility is characterized by the extension of cell protrusions containing abundant microtubule polymers.

Abstract:
Neuroblastoma is the most common solid tumour of childhood, and it metastasizes to distant organs. However, the mechanism of metastasis, which generally depends on the cell motility of the neuroblastoma, remains unclear. In many solid tumours, it has been reported that shear stress promotes metastasis. Here, we investigated the relationship between shear stress and cell motility in the MYCN-amplified human neuroblastoma cell line IMR32, using a microfluidic device. We confirmed that most of the cells migrated downstream, and cell motility increased dramatically when the cells were exposed to a

Abstract:
Cell migration is required during development of the nervous system. The regulatory mechanisms for this process, however, are poorly elucidated. We show here that expression of or exposure to the neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) strongly affected the motile behaviour of glioma cells independently of homophilic NCAM interactions. Expression of the transmembrane 140 kDa isoform of NCAM (NCAM-140) caused a significant reduction in cellular motility, probably through interference with factors regulating cellular attachment, as NCAM-140-expressing cells exhibited a decreased attachment to a fib

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Myxococcus xanthus cells move on a solid surface by gliding motility. Several genes required for gliding motility have been identified, including those of the A- and S-motility systems as well as the mgl and frz genes. However, the cellular defects in gliding movement in many of these mutants were unknown. We conducted quantitative, high-resolution single-cell motility assays and found that mutants defective inmglAB or in cglB, an A-motility gene, reversed the direction of gliding at frequencies which were more than 1 order of magnitude higher than that of wild type cells (2.9 min−1fo

Abstract T-cell therapy with specificity redirected through chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) has shown efficacy for the treatment of hematologic malignancies. Although treatment with CAR T cell can result in high response rates, the properties of the cells that comprise the cellular infusion product, associated with clinical benefit are incompletely understood. We utilized a suite of high-throughput single-cell assays including single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq); confocal microscopy; and Timelapse Imaging Microscopy In Nanowell Grids (TIMING).

Purpose: It is observed that Nrf2 transcription factors initiate the production of proteins that play a role in regulating tumor growth, the study aims to discover whether Nrf2 will regulate cell motility in A549 NSCLC cells. The ROCK-RhoA pathway is a significant contributor to cell growth and migration, which can relate to cell motility. There might be a connection between Nrf2 and ROCK-RhoA pathway, the study aims to see whether Nrf2 regulates A549 NSCLC cell motility through ROCK-RhoA pathway.
