Anti-PD-1 immunotherapies are now used to treat several types of cancer, from solid tumors such as melanoma and non-small-cell lung cancer to hematologic malignancies such as Hodgkin lymphoma, by targeting intra-tumoral CD8+ T cells […]
The collective migration of cells within an epithelial sheet underlies tissue remodeling events associated with morphogenesis, wound repair, and the metastatic cascade. Yet little is known about how each epithelial cell coordinates its movements […]
Bacteria are present in the most diverse ecological niches of the planet, including in our own body. They are capable of acquiring new features through the acquisition of genes from other bacteria. Particularly important […]
