chemokinesis  

Définition(s)

  • Chemokinesis is the motile response of unicellular prokaryotic or eukaryotic organisms to chemicals which cause the cell to make some changes in their migratory behavior, usually involving a change in its movement, by speeding it up, slowing it down, or changing its direction. It gets its name from chemokines which in turn take their name from chemotactic cytokines—the term chemo being used to describe any condition where there is an increase in the activity induced by the presence of any chemical substance. [Source: Encyclopedia of Global Health; Chemokinesis]
