Working alongside Allison Harney in the Einstein lab of John Condeelis, Leung\u2019s Celldance video shows metastasizing cancer cells, helped by the body\u2019s own immune cells called macrophages, break through a blood vessel wall and escape to form new tumors. Through live cell imaging, Leung\u2019s video captures the moment the cancer cell and the macrophage work as a team to break through the vessel wall of a mouse.<\/p>\n<p><iframe frameborder=\"0\" height=\"338\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/148137122\" width=\"600\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n<em>Satyajit Mayor, National Centre for Biological Science, India, for ASCB Celldance 2015 | At the Cell&#8217;s Edge<\/em><\/p>\n<p>In this video made the Mayor lab in Bangalore, researchers give a detailed account of their exploration of the churning lipids and proteins on the cell surface, illustrated by startling live cell videos, high-tech simulations, and low-tech white boards. \u201cAt the Cell\u2019s Edge\u201d paints the cell membrane as a restless nanoscale seascape.<\/p>\n<p><iframe frameborder=\"0\" height=\"338\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/148137124?title=0&amp;byline=0&amp;portrait=0\" width=\"600\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n<em>Douglas Robinson, Johns Hopkins University for ASCB Celldance 2015 | Shape Shifting Cells<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The Robinson lab video is a visual extravaganza of high-resolution microscopy, mathematical representations, animation, and live action.

Their cell story walks us through the stages of discovery &#8212; the shape and hardness of cells, cell cannibalism where the soft (cancer) eat the hard (normal), an amoeba model to see the proteins that stiffen cells, and the identification of 4HAP, a small protein that attacks pancreatic cancer cells.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ASCB&rsquo;s Celldance Studios released Monday (Dec. 14) three new short videos made by cell scientists, featuring dramatic live cell imaging.
