A novel chemotaxis assay in 3-D collagen gels by time-lapse microscopy.
The directional cell response to chemical gradients, referred to as chemotaxis, plays an important role in physiological and pathological processes including development, immune response and tumor cell invasion. Despite such implications, chemotaxis remains a challenging process to study under physi...
