SiMA: A simplified migration assay for analyzing neutrophil migration

Abstract: In lung inflammation, neutrophils are the first leukocytes migrating to an inflammatory site, eliminating pathogens by multiple mechanisms. The term "migration" describes several stages of neutrophil movement to reach the site of inflammation, of which the passage of the interstitium and basal membrane of the airway are necessary to reach the site of bronchial inflammation. Currently, several methods exist (e.g., Boyden Chamber, under-agarose assay, or microfluidic systems) to assess neutrophil mobility. Howev… Show more

“…These assays have been frequently used to study movement of cells. Weckmann et al developed an interesting system to monitor and quantify neutrophils on single cell level, by utilizing commercially available tissue culture hardware, simple video microscopic equipment, and standardized tracking (7). However, the interest for novel standardized real-time analyses using quantitative phase imaging (QPI) for cell tracking is growing (Fig.…”
