Analysis of cell migration using Caenorhabditis elegans as a model system.

Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.) - 1 Jan 2011

Wong Ming-Ching, Martynovsky Maria, Schwarzbauer Jean E

Abstract excerpt

The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans is an excellent model system in which to study long-distance cell migration in vivo. This chapter describes methods used to study a subset of migratory cells in the hermaphrodite nematode, the distal tip cells. These methods take advantage of the organism's transparent body and the expression of green fluorescent protein to observe cell migration and behavior. Additionally, the...
