The correlation between cell shape elongation and the orientation of the division axis described
by early cell biologists is still used as a paradigm in developmental studies. However, …

The original micropatterning technique on gold, although very efficient, is not accessible to
most biology labs and is not compatible with their techniques for image acquisition. Other …

Control of the establishment of cell polarity is an essential function in tissue morphogenesis
and renewal that depends on spatial cues provided by the extracellular environment. The …

… To compare experiments and theory, we used a fit of the calculated … We found that our
theory could correctly describe the most … Our results show that for all these patterns the theory …

The organization of cells into epithelium depends on cell interaction with both the extracellular
matrix (ECM) and adjacent cells. The role of cell–cell adhesion in the regulation of …

Multiple centrosomes in tumor cells create the potential for multipolar divisions that can lead
to aneuploidy and cell death. Nevertheless, many cancer cells successfully divide because …

Cells display a large variety of shapes when plated in classical culture conditions despite
their belonging to a common cell type. These shapes are transitory, since cells permanently …

How different integrins that bind to the same type of extracellular matrix protein mediate
specific functions is unclear. We report the functional analysis of β 1 - and α v -class integrins …
