Riassunto

This book describes the latest molecular and genetic advances in the study of one of the most fundamental, and yet least understood, processes of life: the movement of cells.


Cell locomotion lies at the basis of embryological development, wound healing, and the spread of cancers. The recent advances in identifying the molecular components of cell motility can be found in many publications, but this text uniquely provides a synthesis of the molecular and phenomenological aspects that will be required for an understanding of the controlling processes that underlie cell behavior.


The book will benefit final-year students studying molecular/cell biology but it is primarily aimed at graduate research workers, in all biomolecular sciences, who need to understand the wider implications of their research. Besides cell and molecular biologists, these will include workers in oncology, vascular biology, tissue repair, and cell engineering.
