Cell migration : ウィキペディア英語版
Cell migration
Cell migration is a central process in the development and maintenance of multicellular organisms. Tissue formation during embryonic development, wound healing and immune responses all require the orchestrated movement of cells in particular directions to specific locations. Errors during this process have serious consequences, including intellectual disability, vascular disease, tumor formation and metastasis. An understanding of the mechanism by which cells migrate may lead to the development of novel therapeutic strategies for controlling, for example, invasive tumour cells. Cells often migrate in response to specific external signals, including chemical signals and mechanical signals.
Due to the highly viscous environment (low Reynolds number), cells need to permanently produce forces in order to move. Cells achieve active movement by very different mechanisms. Many less complex prokaryotic organisms (and sperm cells) use flagella or cilia to propel themselves. Eukaryotic cell migration typically is far more complex and can consist of combinations of different migration mechanisms. It generally involves drastic changes in cell shape which are driven by the cytoskeleton. Two very distinct migration scenarios are crawling motion (most commonly studied) and blebbing motility.〔 (online )〕
==Cell migration studies==

The migration of cultured cells attached to a surface is commonly studied using microscopy.
As cell movement is very slow, a few µm/minute, time-lapse microscopy videos are recorded of the migrating cells to
speed up the movement.
Such videos (Figure 1) reveal that the leading cell front is very active with a characteristic behavior of successive contractions and expansions.
It is generally accepted that the leading front is the main motor that pulls the cell forward.
