Contribution of Filopodia to Cell Migration: A Mechanical Link between Protrusion and Contraction

Numerous F-actin containing structures are involved in regulating protrusion of membrane at the leading edge of motile cells. We have investigated the structure and dynamics of filopodia as they relate to events at the leading edge and the function of the trailing actin networks. We have found that...
