Utilizing custom-designed galvanotaxis chambers to study directional migration of prostate cells.
Published in Journal of Visualized Experiments
The physiological electric field serves specific biological functions, such as directing cell migration in embryo development, neuronal outgrowth and epithelial wound healing. Applying a direct current electric field to cultured cells in vitro induces directional cell migration, or galvanotaxis. The 2-dimensional galvanotaxis method we demonstrate ...
