October Cell Migration Gateway news

Cell Migration Update, a part of the Cell Migration Gateway, is a one-stop online resource designed to keep you in touch with the latest and hottest research in cell migration, by Nature Publishing Group in collaboration with the Cell Migration Consortium.
Each month we showcase two exciting new cell migration articles from the current literature. Nature Publishing Group papers are available free for 3 months, and the Editor's Reviews are free indefinitely.
This month's selections:

Par-Tiam1 complex: Persistently on Par
Tiam1 and the Par polarity complex control cell polarity, chemotaxis and persistent cell migration of epidermal keratinocytes by affecting microtubule stability.
Curr. Biol 9 Oct (2007).
Editor's Review is here.

Integrin adhesiveness: May the (shear) force be with you
Immobilized chemokines promote T-lymphocyte migration in a shear stress-free environment, but induce integrin activation and adhesiveness in the presence of external shear forces.
Nat. Immunol. 8, 1076-1085 (2007)
Editor's Review is here.
