Abstract

Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition The cover image shows that the malignant cells generated by the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) are breaking away from the benign ones and spreading elsewhere. In article number 2106498, using single-particle tracking of β1-integrins labelled with fluorescent quantum dots, Yan Wei, Peng-Ye Wang, Hui Li, and co-workers discover a significantly enhanced diffusion of integrins on cell membranes after EMT, which may represent a new hallmark of EMT and offer a novel method for cancer diagnosis.
