Migrasomes are a recently discovered type of extracellular vesicles that are characteristically generated along retraction fibers in migrating cells. Two studies now show how migrasomes are formed and ...
The migrasome is a newly discovered organelle that grows from the retraction fibres (RFs) of migrating cells 1. Migrasomes play important roles in various physiological processes, including organ ...
Migrasomes, novel organelles first reported by Professor Li Yu' s team in 2015, are vesicular structures with diameters ranging from 0.5 to 3 micrometers that form on the retraction fibers at the rear ...
Generative mechanism of migrasome. Migrasome biogenesis can be divided into two steps: (i) the initial sites formation includes the generation of SMS2 foci, the recruitment of PIP5K1A, the formation ...
As the brain ages, many cell types succumb to senescence. How does this start? In the September 10 Nature Aging, scientists led by Wei Cai, Zhengqi Lu, and Quentin Liu at Sun Yat-Sen University, ...
Bridget Plude watched amoeba cells crawl forward through a microscope. Then, she noticed little structures trailing out behind them and wondered what they were. It was the start of a journey that led ...
Migrasome images of Tetraspanin4-GFP over-expressed L929 cells were collected by confocal microscopy at a proper focal plane or improper (Upper or Lower) focal plane. Scale bar, 10 m. Migrasomes, a ...
