Cell migration is an indispensable physiological and pathological process for normal tissue development and cancer metastasis, which is greatly regulated by intracellular signal pathways and extracellular microenvironment (ECM). However, there is a lack of adequate tools to analyze the time-varying cell migration characteristics because of the effects of some factors, i.e., the ECM including the time-dependent local stiffness due to microstructural remodeling by migrating cells. Here, we develop an approach to derive the time-dependent motility parameters from cellular trajectories, based on the time-varying persistent random walk model. In particular, we employ the wavelet denoising and wavelet transform to investigate cell migration velocities and obtain the wavelet power spectrum. The time-dependent motility parameters are subsequently derived via Lorentzian power spectrum. Our analysis shows that the combination of wavelet denoising, wavelet transform and Lorentzian power spectrum provides a powerful tool to derive accurately the time-dependent motility parameters, which reflects the time-varying microenvironment characteristics to some extent.
How cells sense and respond to mechanical stimuli remains an open question. Recent advances have identified the translocation of Yes-associated protein (YAP) between nucleus and cytoplasm as a central mechanism for sensing mechanical forces and regul
We propose SPARFA-Trace, a new machine learning-based framework for time-varying learning and content analytics for education applications. We develop a novel message passing-based, blind, approximate Kalman filter for sparse factor analysis (SPARFA)
Cell migration, which can be significantly affected by intracellular signaling pathways (ICSP) and extracellular matrix (ECM), plays a crucial role in many physiological and pathological processes. The efficiency of cell migration, which is typically
We present a study of the observational properties of Millisecond Pulsars (MSPs) by way of their magnetic fields, spin periods and masses. These measurements are derived through the scenario of Accretion Induced Collapse (AIC) of white dwarfs (WDs) i
Adhesive cell-substrate interactions are crucial for cell motility and are responsible for the necessary traction that propels cells. These interactions can also change the shape of the cell, analogous to liquid droplet wetting on adhesive substrates
