Description

The concerted movement of cells within their environment plays a fundamental role in nearly all eukaryotic organisms. Higher eukaryotes rely on regulated cell migration throughout development and for immunologic processes while aberrant cell migration is a defining feature of metastatic cancers. The process of cellular migration towards external stimuli (such as chemotaxis) is called directional cell migration. Equally as informative is random cell migration in which cell trajectories are measured when a chemoattractant is diffuse instead of emanating from a source direction. Whether studying directional or random migration it is important to measure the motile capacity of cells accurately and reliably.
