Disease progression is usually accompanied by changes in the biochemical composition of
cells and tissues and their biophysical properties. For instance, hallmarks of cancer include …

Macropinocytosis is a unique pathway of endocytosis characterised by the nonspecific
internalisation of large amounts of extracellular fluid, solutes and membrane in large …

Immune cells experience large cell shape changes during environmental patrolling because
of the physical constraints that they encounter while migrating through tissues. These cells …

Immune cells have intensely physical lifestyles characterized by structural plasticity and
force exertion. To investigate whether specific immune functions require stereotyped …

Directional cell migration normally relies on a variety of external signals, such as chemical,
mechanical, or electrical, which instruct cells in which direction to move. Many of the major …

Taxis orientation is common in microorganisms, and it provides feasible strategies to
operate active colloids as small‐scale robots. Collective taxes involve numerous units that …

Migration of leukocytes is essential for the induction, maintenance, and regulation of
immune responses. On their trafficking routes, leukocytes encounter microenvironments of …

Macropinocytosis is a form of endocytosis performed by ruffles and cups of the plasma
membrane. These close to entrap droplets of medium into micron-sized vesicles, which are …

Dendritic cells (DCs) are a heterogeneous population of antigen-presenting cells that act to
bridge innate and adaptive immunity. DCs are critical in mounting effective immune …

Endocytosis has long been identified as a key cellular process involved in bringing in
nutrients, in clearing cellular debris in tissue, in the regulation of signaling, and in …
