Haptotaxis and the Mechanism of Cell Motility
Abstract
Dr. Carter puts forward a hypothesis for the basis of tissue cell motility involving considerations of thermodynamics. He uses it to explain experimental haptotaxis and other features of cell motility such as ruffling and circus movement. Dr. Moilliet shows that the hypothesis is thermodynamically feasible
