No road? No problem! Squeezing through cell tunnels helps leukocytes reach their target sites 🚇
Felipe Del Valle Batalla highlights a recent, highly collaborative #preprint revealing a previously unrecognised level of complexity in leukocyte trafficking. #NoursharghLab @JoachimGoedhart #VanBuul_lab

"We propose that WNK1-induced water entry is required to swell the #membrane at the leading edge, generating space into which #actin filaments can polymerize, thereby facilitating forward movement of the cell. Given the broad expression of WNK1 pathway proteins, our study suggests that ion and water influx are likely to be essential for migration in many cell types, including #leukocytes and metastatic #tumor cells."
The ability of T cells to migrate is a central component of their functionality and is known to require WNK1 kinase that is linked to the influx of ions into the cell. Here the authors show that T cell migration requires WNK1 mediated ion and water influx to swell the membrane of the leading edge and support actin polymerisation and forward motility.
