Cells were preincubated with mAbs (10 μg/ml), and mAbs were additionally added to the medium during and after polymerization of the collagen matrix. Steady-state locomotion was observed for at least 15 h and calculated from single-cell analysis as cumulative percentage of cells locomoting and time locomoting (means of three independent experiments ± SD). Significant differences of mAb treatment versus control cells are indicated by asterisks (** P < 0.001, *** P < 0.0001). mAbs: α2 (1), 6F1; α2 (2), P1E6; α3, P1B5; α5, SAM-1; α6, GoH3; αv, 17E6; β1, 4B4.
