ESCRT III repairs nuclear envelope ruptures during cell migration to limit DNA damage and cell death

TL;DR: Nuclear envelope opening in migrating leukocytes could have potentially important consequences for normal and pathological immune responses and survival of cells migrating through confining environments depended on efficient nuclear envelope and DNA repair machineries.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intermittent search strategies

TL;DR: This review examines intermittent target search strategies, which combine phases of slow motion, allowing the searcher to detect the target, and phases of fast motion during which targets cannot be detected, which suggest that the intrinsic efficiency of intermittent search strategies could justify their frequent observation in nature.
Journal ArticleDOI

Confinement and Low Adhesion Induce Fast Amoeboid Migration of Slow Mesenchymal Cells

TL;DR: It is reported that, in the absence of focal adhesions and under conditions of confinement, mesenchymal cells can spontaneously switch to a fast amoeboid migration phenotype and, Interestingly, transformed cells are more prone to adopt this fast migration mode.
Journal ArticleDOI

First-passage times in complex scale-invariant media

TL;DR: The analytical approach provides a universal scaling dependence of the mean FPT on both the volume of the confining domain and the source–target distance, which is applicable to a broad range of stochastic processes characterized by length-scale-invariant properties.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evidence of a large-scale mechanosensing mechanism for cellular adaptation to substrate stiffness

TL;DR: It is shown that large-scale mechanosensing leads to an adaptative response of cell migration to stiffness gradients, and not only that cells migrate preferentially toward stiffer substrates, but also that this response is optimal in a narrow range of rigidities.
