Sentences with phrase «changes in cell morphology»

Consequently, despite the extensive and highly successful efforts of many researchers to develop infection models in Drosophila, the outcomes of infection are often measured by end - points such as insect death (survival of a cohort of insects over time) or changes in cell morphology at fixed periods throughout infection (often monitored by staining different elements of the cytoskeleton).

During the culture of these cells, we noticed a change in cell morphology from the cobble stone - like shape typical of epithelial cells to a more spindle - like and scattered appearance (Figure 2A, lower panel), indicating these cells may be undergoing EMT.
