Amniotic membrane (AM) treatment increases the detection focal structures in migrating HaCaT cells. (a) Confocal microscopy images of HaCaT cells at the migrating edge of artificial wound assays. Scale Bar 50 µm. (b) 2.5x magnified detail from merged pictures in (a). (c) Plots for average number and size of focal structures detected at the migrating leading edge. Asterisks denote statistically significant differences between conditions according to ANOVA statistical analysis: (*) p < 0.05, (**) p < 0.005 and (***) p < 0.001; (ns) not significant. Paxillin: green; Actin: red; Nuclei: blue; C: serum starvation; JNKi: SP600125; MEKi: PD98059; FS: focal structures. All the experiments were repeated at least three times. Representative pictures are shown.
