Microtubules regulate migratory polarity through Rho/ROCK signaling in T cells.
Migrating leukocytes normally have a polarized morphology with an actin-rich lamellipodium at the front and a uropod at the rear. Microtubules (MTs) are required for persistent migration and chemotaxis, but how they affect cell polarity is not known.Here we report that T cells treated with nocodazol...
