Abstract excerpt
A novel computerized methodology was used to quantify, for the first time, the 3-dimensional locomotory phenotypes of individual macrophages moving within an extracellular matrix-like hydrated collagen lattice/gel. Comparisons between two macrophage lines genetically susceptible to intracellular parasites (B10S4 and ANA-1) and two genetically resistant (B10R4 and CD2) demonstrated that Bcgs alleles consistently...
