Now out in @biophysj.bsky.social: our work on the rosettes that sometimes are formed by red blood cells infected by malaria parasites (iRBCs). Surprisingly, they do not marginate, as do white blood cells or "normal" iRBCs, and we explain why (because they are dynamic and effectively soft).

RAB5A Promotes Active Fluid Wetting by Reprogramming Breast Cancer Spheroid Mechanics
RAB5A-mediated unjamming enhances active wetting through distinct biomechanical processes: a) upregulation of specific integrin subunits, enhanced focal adhesions kinetics and activity; b) supracellu...
