Words similar to microspikes

Example sentences for: microspikes

How can you use “microspikes” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

HGF/SF induces mitogenic and morphogenic changes, including rapid membrane ruffling, formation of microspikes, and increased cellular motility [ 12 13 ] . The diverse biological effects of HGF/SF are all mediated by Met, which is preferentially expressed on epithelial cells [ 14 ] . In vivo this receptor-ligand pair is essential for normal embryonic development [ 15 16 ] . Whereas Met signaling clearly has a role in normal cellular processes, this signaling pathway has also been implicated in tumor development and progression.
2F, we observed microspikes at the periphery of the cells.
Secondly, their shape is rather similar to the generally larger microspikes or microvilli.
Filopodia formation of short filamentous actin microspikes gives way to membrane ruffling and lamellipodia formation, culminating in the organized production of actin stress fibers.
The C3 induced extensions were rich in filamentous actin, and C3 treated HPB-ALL cell bodies apparently lacked filopodial actin microspikes, present in normal spreading cells.
