The paper shows that tumor cells use membrane voltage and connexin expression to control communication with neighboring cells, enhancing growth and metastasis.

The paper introduces a platform called the Cell Trainer for automated training of mammalian cells using timed drug pulses and fluorescence imaging, demonstrating sensitization-like dynamics and feedback control in single-cell responses.

This study shows that ionic exposure history affects inner nuclear membrane voltage and chromatin texture in NRK cells, with responses dependent on exposure order and chromatin state.
