A New Candidate Substrate for Cell-Matrix Adhesion Study: The Acellular Human Amniotic Matrix
Figure 6
HFF migration patterns at 8 h after seeding. Images were obtained every 15 min over a 6 h period. (a) Ten representative paths of cells on coverslips or the AHAM were positioned with a common origin to generate a star-like pattern. Faster migration produced larger star patterns. On the AHAM, HFFs moved with more monoleading processes in an almost straight line, whereas HFFs on coverslips moved randomly. (b) Chart showing that the speed was significantly different between cells cultured on the AHAM and coverslips. Scale bar, 200 μm.
