  text: Cancer stem cells or cancer initiating cells are believed to contribute to
    cancer recurrence after therapy. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short RNA molecules with
    fundamental roles in gene regulation. The role of miRNAs in cancer stem cells
    is only poorly understood. Here, we report miRNA expression profiles of glioblastoma
    stem cell-containing CD133 + cell populations. We find that miR-9, miR-9 * (referred
    to as miR-9/9 *), miR-17 and miR-106b are highly abundant in CD133 + cells. Furthermore,
    inhibition of miR-9/9 * or miR-17 leads to reduced neurosphere formation and stimulates
    cell differentiation. Calmodulin-binding transcription activator 1 (CAMTA1) is
    a putative transcription factor, which induces the expression of the anti-proliferative
    cardiac hormone natriuretic peptide A (NPPA). We identify CAMTA1 as an miR-9/9
    * and miR-17 target. CAMTA1 expression leads to reduced neurosphere formation
    and tumour growth in nude mice, suggesting that CAMTA1 can function as tumour
    suppressor. Consistently, CAMTA1 and NPPA expression correlate with patient survival.
    Our findings could provide a basis for novel strategies of glioblastoma therapy.

  text: Migrating lymphocytes acquire a polarized phenotype with a leading and a trailing
    edge, or uropod. Although in vitro experiments in cell lines or activated primary
    cell cultures have established that Rho-p160 coiled-coil kinase (ROCK)-myosin
    II-mediated uropod contractility is required for integrin de-adhesion on two-dimensional
    surfaces and nuclear propulsion through narrow pores in three-dimensional matrices,
    less is known about the role of these two events during the recirculation of primary,
    nonactivated lymphocytes. Using pharmacological antagonists of ROCK and myosin
    II, we report that inhibition of uropod contractility blocked integrin-independent
    mouse T cell migration through narrow, but not large, pores in vitro. T cell crawling
    on chemokine-coated endothelial cells under shear was severely impaired by ROCK
    inhibition, whereas transendothelial migration was only reduced through endothelial
    cells with high, but not low, barrier properties. Using three-dimensional thick-tissue
    imaging and dynamic two-photon microscopy of T cell motility in lymphoid tissue,
    we demonstrated a significant role for uropod contractility in intraluminal crawling
    and transendothelial migration through lymph node, but not bone marrow, endothelial
    cells. Finally, we demonstrated that ICAM-1, but not anatomical constraints or
    integrin-independent interactions, reduced parenchymal motility of inhibitor-treated
    T cells within the dense lymphoid microenvironment, thus assigning context-dependent
    roles for uropod contraction during lymphocyte recirculation.

  text: Cell migration on two-dimensional (2D) substrates follows entirely different
    rules than cell migration in three-dimensional (3D) environments. This is especially
    relevant for leukocytes that are able to migrate in the absence of adhesion receptors
    within the confined geometry of artificial 3D extracellular matrix scaffolds and
    within the interstitial space in vivo. Here, we describe in detail a simple and
    economical protocol to visualize dendritic cell migration in 3D collagen scaffolds
    along chemotactic gradients. This method can be adapted to other cell types and
    may serve as a physiologically relevant paradigm for the directed locomotion of
    most amoeboid cells.
