Question 1

List and briefly describe the four stages of whole-cell migration.

Accepted Answer

In the first stage, the front and back ends of a cell becomes defined by a polarization process. In the second stage, the front end of the cell protrudes as actin microfilaments assemble into long, parallel bundles. In the third stage, the cell adheres to the surrounding extracellular matrix. In the fourth stage, adhesion at the rear end of the cell is released, and the cell migrates forward and adheres to a new attachment point.
