#CellMigration for #FluorescenceFriday 🧪🔬

If a metastatic #cancer cell is offered 2 paths it decides very fast, bc it does matter where it goes...

OTOH, if a non-cancer #cell is offered 2 options it takes some time to explore and decide.

Hot from the #preprint

Leukocyte + #CellMigration + physics = cool

Microtubules enable torque-based steering during dendritic cell migration.

Actomyosin contractility is required for noise-modulation strategy used by neutrophils.

The law of the jungle.
Interactions of cells in a collective lead to global rotation.
In 80% of the case HUVEC cells turn clockwise.
How many cells does it take for this to happen?

I won't talk about NMeth @natmethods.nature.com forever (probably), but I do want to brag a bit about the November focus issue on cell segmentation and tracking, which is many ways is my last hurrah (and final editorial) for the journal. I am so proud of these papers!! www.nature.com/nmeth/volume...

This week's #FluorescenceFriday, we'll be treated with one of the classical models of #devbio, the neural crest cells. Here is a beautiful video of neural crest cells with GFP-tagged focal adhesion kinase (🔵) and LifeAct-RFP (🟣) migrating on a Fibronectin matrix.

I love to see the endoplasmic reticulum (ER, cyan) hitchhiking over microtubules (MTs, orange).

Also the membrane dynamics are lovely.

It's been a while, but here we are for a late #fluorescencefriday with some #microscopy

What if instead of analyzing 4-6 pathology markers you could check >100 in the *same* sample?
