Live cell filopodial dynamics. (A) Selected frames of confocal time-lapse of a neurite of N1E-115 cell co-expressing mRFP-IRSp53 (not shown) and GFP-actin (intensity heat map look up table (LUT)). The arrows indicate the dynamic filopodia initially extends before retracting upon addition of Cytochalasin D (at 7 min). Images were recorded every 30 s for a total of 12 min. Scale bar = 5 µm. (B) Selected frames of a widefield fluorescence time-lapse showing N1E-115 cell co-expressing mRFP-I-BAR domain of IRSp53 (not shown) and GFP-actin (intensity heatmap LUT). Images were recorded every 30 s for a total of 12 min. The filopodia life time observed (n = 10) was >7 min and was unaffected by the addition Cytochalasin D (at 7 min). Scale bar = 5 µm.
