This study shows ERK regulates nascent adhesion dynamics by promoting both assembly and disassembly, creating short-lived adhesions that support persistent cell migration.

This study identifies the mechanism by which ERK activates Rho and stress fibers through inhibition of Ezrin via phosphorylation of LOK, facilitating cell migration.

This paper identifies hydrogen peroxide-driven catalytic motion of hemozoin crystals in malaria parasites, revealing them as self-propelled nanoparticles that reduce oxidative stress.

This study investigates how fascin's structural plasticity enables flexible actin bundle formation through cryo-EM, tomography, and modeling.

This study shows that Tenascin-C promotes early lung cancer progression by activating integrins and FAK in mouse models and human lung adenocarcinomas.

The paper introduces LongAxis, a MATLAB program for 3D analysis of epithelial cell shape and orientation, and uses it to study retinal progenitor cells in lama1 and lama1;MZpard3 mutants.
