The model of cell invasion and migration that I have been studying over the course of 7 years in finally featured in Journal of Cell Biology. 🧬 I couldn’t be any more happy to have my work published there as the whole process was streamlined and very clear! My experience was highly pleasant 🥳

Spatial inhibition of RhoA by RhoGAP15B promotes protrusive activity during collective migration. From @vitoryang.bsky.social, @polarityi3s.bsky.social and colleagues: rupress.org/jcb/article/... 📕 Part of "Collective Behaviors and Self-Organization in Cells" rupress.org/jcb/collecti...

I am so happy to share that my previous preprint is officially out as a Report in JCB. 🩵 Hop in to find out more about how cells move as an invasive cluster 🧬

Collective #migration requires balancing force and flexibility. @vitoryang.bsky.social, @polarityi3s.bsky.social et al. identify RhoGAP15B as a local brake on RhoA-#myosin contractility in border cells, stabilizing front protrusions and coordinating group movement rupress.org/jcb/article/...

How do migrating cell groups balance force and flexibility? Our new preprint shows that RhoGAP15B downregulates RhoA–Myosin activity to stabilise protrusions and enable efficient collective migration in vivo. Happy New Year! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

#CellMigration happens all the time in our bodies. This may (or not) rely on adhesion molecules #Cancer cells switch strategies during metastasis to invade other tissues Naomi Wee (naomiwee.com) did this neat movie to explain it: www.youtube.com/watch?v=D9aD... #SciSky 🧪🔬 @cellcommlab.bsky.social

XXXI Porto Cancer Meeting 📅14-16 May 2025 📍#i3S This year's Porto #Cancer Meeting will focus on the intricacies of cancer cell connections and their implications in cancer development and progression. Abstract submission⏰4 Febr Early registration⏰3 Mar ➕ lnkd.in/dM-aWvWn

Porto is a beautiful during spring (it is all year around but I may be biased)! And is hosting the conference that you don't want to miss on #adhesion regulation in #cancer. A great lineup of speakers from basic to clinical research and also many talk opportunities. Check it out and join us!

It's always mesmerizing seeing how these group of cells move. ℹ️Border cells invading through nurse cells ℹ️Drosophila S9 egg chambers
