Journal ArticleDOI

Macrophages: Obligate Partners for Tumor Cell Migration, Invasion, and Metastasis

TL;DR: Macrophages within the tumor microenvironment facilitate angiogenesis and extracellular-matrix breakdown and remodeling and promote tumor cell motility and are an important drug target for cancer therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

A paracrine loop between tumor cells and macrophages is required for tumor cell migration in mammary tumors.

TL;DR: This work provides the first direct evidence for a synergistic interaction between macrophages and tumor cells during cell migration in vivo and indicates a mechanism for how macrophage may contribute to metastasis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulation of the actin cytoskeleton in cancer cell migration and invasion

TL;DR: Recent progress on molecular mechanisms of formation of invasive protrusions used by tumor cells, such as lamellipodia and invadopodia, with regard to the functions of key regulatory proteins of the actin cytoskeleton; WASP family proteins, Arp2/3 complex, LIM-kinase, cofilin, and cortactin are summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI

Direct Visualization of Macrophage-Assisted Tumor Cell Intravasation in Mammary Tumors

TL;DR: The results show that the interaction between macrophages and tumor cells lying in close proximity defines a microenvironment that is directly involved in the intravasation of cancer cells in mammary tumors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Filamins as integrators of cell mechanics and signalling.

TL;DR: The history, structure and function ofamins are described, which are large actin-binding proteins that stabilize delicate three-dimensional actin webs and link them to cellular membranes.
