• Confinement and low adhesion induce fast amoeboid migration of slow mesenchymal cells. (2015, positive): “This is reminiscent of the behavior of leukocytes, such as dendritic cells, which are known to migrate fast and independently of specific integrin-based adhesion (Lämmermann et al., 2008; Lämmermann and Sixt, 2009; Hawkins et al., 2009; Heuzé et al., 2013).”
• Actin dynamics, architecture, and mechanics in cell motility. (2014, background): “Blebbing has also been shown to be an important mode of motility in vivo during development, in specialized moving cells like leukocytes and possibly in other three-dimensional motility contexts such as cancer cell invasion (29, 168, 169).”
• Nanotopography-guided tissue engineering and regenerative medicine (2012, background): “Furthermore, some cells such as T cells take different modes of migration in 3D (so called ‘amoeboid’ migration), which are different from mesenchymal and epithelial cells [316].”
• The Multifaceted Functions of Neutrophils (2013, background): “However, a recent study using mice lacking all integrins on their immune cells suggests that although integrins are indispensable for neutrophil anchoring to the endothelial surface, they are dispensable for migration in collagen gels (257).”
• Macrophage-Induced Blood Vessels Guide Schwann Cell-Mediated Regeneration of Peripheral Nerves (2015, background): “…Jemima J. Burden, Lucie Van Emmenis, ..., Tariq Enver, Christiana Ruhrberg, Alison C. Lloyd Correspondence alison.lloyd@ucl.ac.uk In Brief Repairing a cut nerve requires collective migration of Schwann cells guided by a polarized vasculature that is induced by macrophages within the hypoxic bridge.”
• Cancer invasion and the microenvironment: plasticity and reciprocity. (2011, positive): “Amoeboid movement, which uses Rac-dependent filopodia, has small or diffusely organized adhesion sites that generate weak to negligible adhesion force toward the substrate (Lämmermann and Sixt, 2009).”
