HIGHLIGHTS
- who: Joseph H.R. Hetmanski from the Centre University of UK have published the paper: Membrane Tension Orchestrates Rear Retraction in Matrix-Directed Cell Migration, in the Journal: (JOURNAL) of November/18,/2019
- what: Using Flipper-TR, the authors show that the in-plane membrane tension is reduced at the rear of cells moving in 3D .
- how: In the absence of a chemotactic gradient the authors hypothesized that the direction of migration along matrix fibrils could be determined by the physical properties of the matrix.
