"[Researchers] are able to
estimate the number of free filament ends, 241±100/µm of
lamellipodial margin, a parameter that is only dependent on dL/dS and the angle subtended by individual filaments and the margin (Table 2). [Their] result is similar to an estimate of 110–130 filament ends/µm obtained via analysis of high-resolution electron micrographs of fibroblast lamellipodia
(see Materials and Methods)." |
