Visualisation of FA in U87 cells migrating across microchannels. (A) The amount of Tf@pSiNP, BSA@pSiNP, and Tf associated with U87 cells which migrated across microchannels as indicated by Cy5 intensity normalised to their respective non-migrated cells. Higher value indicates higher cell-pSiNP or cell-Tf associations in migrated cells. (B) Immunofluorescence staining of vinculin as a representation of FA. Filament actin, red. Nucleus, blue. Vinculin, green and white is Cy5-labelled Tf@pSiNP, BSA@pSiNP, and Tf. (C) Aspect ratio of identifiable FA in U87 cells. (n = 5, error bar = ±1 SD. * indicates p < 0.05).
