Modeling the Excess Cell Surface Stored in a Complex Morphology of Bleb-Like Protrusions.

Modeling the Excess Cell Surface Stored in a Complex Morphology of Bleb-Like Protrusions.

Cells transition from spread to rounded morphologies in diverse physiological contexts including mitosis and mesenchymal-to-amoeboid transitions. When these drastic shape changes occur rapidly, cell volume and surface area are approximately conserved. Consequently, the rounded cells are suddenly pre...
