Local calcium elevation and cell elongation initiate guided motility in electrically stimulated osteoblast-like cells.
BACKGROUND: Investigation of the mechanisms of guided cell migration can contribute to our understanding of many crucial biological processes, such as development and regeneration. Endogenous and exogenous direct current electric fields (dcEF) are known to induce directional cell migration, however...
