A Semianalytical Model to Study the Effect of Cortical Tension on Cell Rolling

A Semianalytical Model to Study the Effect of Cortical Tension on Cell Rolling

Cell rolling on the vascular endothelium plays an important role in trafficking of leukocytes, stem cells, and cancer cells. We describe a semianalytical model of cell rolling that focuses on the microvillus as the unit of cell-substrate interaction and integrates microvillus mechanics, receptor clu...
