    Summary: Dynamic shape changes of amoeboid cells are far from random, but are the consequence of refined symmetries and symmetry changes that are orchestrated by small G-proteins and the cytoskeleton.

    Rab7 knockout unveils regulated autolysosome maturation induced by glutamine starvation
    Yoshihiko Kuchitsu, Yuta Homma, Naonobu Fujita, Mitsunori Fukuda
    Journal of Cell Science 2018 131: jcs215442 doi: 10.1242/jcs.215442 Published 6 April 2018

    Highlighted Article: Through analysis of Rab7-knockout cells, this paper shows that Rab7 is dispensable for autophagosome–lysosome fusion and that glutamine starvation regulates autolysosome maturation in cultured mammalian cells.

    Matrix elasticity regulates mesenchymal stem cell chemotaxis
    Neha Saxena, Pankaj Mogha, Silalipi Dash, Abhijit Majumder, Sameer Jadhav, Shamik Sen
    Journal of Cell Science 2018 131: jcs211391 doi: 10.1242/jcs.211391 Published 6 April 2018

    Summary: hMSCs exhibit faster chemotaxis with fewer focal adhesions and an increased protrusion rate on soft substrates, suggesting that the total speed of a cell is the sum of stiffness-dependent and chemokine-dependent components.

Introducing FocalPlane’s new Community Manager, Esperanza Agullo-Pascual

We are pleased to welcome Esperanza to the Journal of Cell Science team. The new Community Manager for FocalPlane, Esperanza is joining us from the Microscopy Core at Mount Sinai School of Medicine. Find out more about Esperanza in her introductory post over on FocalPlane.


New funding scheme supports sustainable events

As part of our Sustainable Conferencing Initiative, we are pleased to announce funding for organisers that seek to reduce the environmental footprint of their event. The next deadline to apply for a Scientific Meeting grant is 26 March 2021.


Read & Publish participation continues to grow

"Alongside pre-printing for early documentation of work, such mechanisms are particularly helpful for early-career researchers like me.”

Dr Chris MacDonald (University of York) shares his experience of publishing Open Access as part of our growing Read & Publish initiative. We now have over 150 institutions in 15 countries and four library consortia taking part – find out more and view our full list of participating institutions.


Cell scientist to watch: Romain Levayer

In an interview, Romain Levayer talks about starting his own lab, his love for preprints and his experience of balancing parenting with his research goals.


Live lactating mammary tissue

In a stunning video, Stewart et al. demonstrate warping of the alveolar unit due to basal cell-generated force as part of their recent work investigating roles for mechanically activated ion channels in lactation and involution.
