Micro-topographical guidance of macropinocytic signaling patches

G. Honda, N. Saito, T. Fujimori, H. Hashimura, M. J. Nakamura, A. Nakajima, S. Sawai

The paper shows that micro-topography guides macropinocytic signaling patches in Dictyostelium, with PI3K-dependent nucleation and confinement at convex and concave surfaces, respectively.

Tissue self-organization based on collective cell migration by contact activation of locomotion and chemotaxis

T. Fujimori, A. Nakajima, N. Shimada, S. Sawai

This study identifies a contact-based migration mechanism in Dictyostelium cells that competes with chemotaxis, revealing new rules for cell sorting and collective migration.
