Tunneling Nanotubes and Intercellular Protrusions

Over the past decade, there has been a growing focus on novel cellular extensions and their potential roles in human diseases. One interesting aspect .. Read more is the improved understanding of tunneling nanotubes (TNTs), which are unique actin-based protrusions that connect cells over long distances. Researchers are now studying the role of TNTs in various processes such as cancer cell invasion, drug resistance, and intercellular communication. This FASEB Catalyst Conference will provide a platform for discussing these advancements.
