Macrophages in the AGM can be divided into 4 morphological subgroups. ( |
Macrophages in the AGM migrate in the mesenchymal way and undergo dynamic transition between different shapes over time. ( |
Rac inhibition leads to a loss of macrophage plasticity and motility. ( |
MMP-9 inhibition induces a change in macrophage shape and a transition towards an amoeboid-like migration. ( |
