Comments |
"Although both cell alignment and
elongation was directly proportional to the density of the topography, [researchers] observed that the cell speed depended biphasically on
the topographic density, with the fastest migration (˜40 µm/h)
occurring at an intermediate ridge pattern density (positioned
between 200 µm and 300 µm the range of groove widths:
5.6 –6.9 µm) (Fig. 3d)." |
