On the existence and strength of stable membrane protrusions
We present a mathematical model for the protrusion of lamellipodia in motile cells. The model lamellipodium consists of a viscoelastic actin gel in the bulk and a dynamic boundary layer of newly polymerized filaments at the leading edge called the semiflexible region (SR). The density of filaments i...
