Video Clip: En Masse Migration of Fibroblasts
This videoclip shows the deformation of collagen matrix (left, bright fields) and migration of fibroblasts on the matrix (right, fluorescence micrographs). This videoclip illustrate that, when a large number of fibroblasts migrate all together (i.e., en masse), cells can collectively deform the matrices. Fibroblasts are seeded on the left half of each image. The matrix …
