    Studies of normal lymphocyte migratory properties in small animals and more recently in man using 111indium oxine labelling techniques are helping the clinician to understand the biology of tumours involving cells of the immune system. However, not enough is known about subset migration to interpret all the various patterns of dissemination observed in lymphoma patients. Such studies are important since they introduce new possibilities for therapy including the use of labelled cells to home a source a radiation preferentially to affected tissue.

    Cell Migration

    Cell migration, the process by which cells move from one location to another, is essential for the proper development and viability of organisms throughout their life. When cells are not able to migrate properly to their ordained locations, various disorders may occur. For example, disruption in cell migration causes chronic inflammatory diseases such as arthritis.
    Metastasis02:30

    Metastasis

    Metastasis is the spread of cancer cells from the original site to distant locations in the body. Cancer cells can spread via blood vessels (hematogenous) as well as lymph vessels in the body.
    Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition
    The epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition or EMT is a developmental process commonly observed in wound healing, embryogenesis, and cancer metastasis. EMT is induced by transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) or receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) ligands, which further...
    Cell Migration01:19

    Cell Migration

    Cell migration is a process by which the cells move from one location to another, playing an essential role in embryological development, repair and regeneration, immune response, and metastasis. Cells migrate in response to chemical or mechanical signals generated by specific organs or tissues. The overall mechanism includes three steps - polarization, protrusion, and release. Polarization involves the formation of a distinct cell front and rear, which determines the direction of movement.
    Cancer Cell Migration through Invadopodia01:35

    Cancer Cell Migration through Invadopodia

    Invadosome is a broad category of cell surface structures with proteolytic activity that  degrades the extracellular matrix (ECM). Invadosomes are present in normal cell types, including macrophages, endothelial cells, and neurons, as well as tumor cells. Although the macrophage podosomes and tumor cell invadopodia are classified as invadosomes, they have different structures, molecular pathways, and functions. Podosomes are short structures that last for a few minutes. However, invadopodia can...
    Chemotaxis and Direction of Cell Migration01:21

    Chemotaxis and Direction of Cell Migration

    Cells can detect chemical cues in their environment and reorganize the cytoskeleton to migrate toward them or away from them. This directional migration, called chemotaxis, is essential during embryogenesis and development, immune response, tissue repair and regeneration, and reproduction. These chemical cues can either attract or repel the cell's movement. For example, axon development is determined by a combination of chemoattractants and chemorepellents that direct the growing axon towards...
