Tumor Stroma Content Regulates Penetration and Efficacy of Tumor-targeting Bacteria

Y. Zhan, B. Burkel, E. J. Leaman, S. M. Ponik, B. Behkam

This study shows that high collagen content in tumors limits bacterial penetration and reduces the efficacy of Salmonella-based cancer therapy.

Coiling of cellular protrusions around extracellular fibers

R. K. Sadhu, C. Hernandez-Padilla, Y. E. Eisenbach, L. Zhang, H. D. Vishwasrao, B. Behkam, H. Shroff, A. Igli\v{c}, E. Peles, A. Nain, N. Gov

This study combines theory and experiments to show that cellular protrusions coil around round fibers but not elliptical ones, driven by membrane curvature and adhesion energies.

Actin filaments couple the protrusive tips to the nucleus through the I-BAR domain protein IRSp53 for migration of elongated cells on 1D fibers

A. Mukherjee, J. Ron, H. T. Hu, T. Nishimura, K. Hanawa-Suetsugu, B. Behkam, N. Gov, S. Suetsugu, A. Nain

This study shows that IRSp53 couples actin filaments to the nucleus via membrane curvature during 3D cell migration on 1D fibers, affecting protrusion and contractility.
