Figure Lengend Snippet: (A-E) Representative bright-field images of the gaps between both cell sheets of HaCaT (A) , HSC-5 (B) , CAL27 (C) , A549 (D) and U2OS (E) cell sheets at 0, 24, 48 and 72h of migration after removing the insert. The yellow lines represent the contour of the gaps not covered by the cells (wound area). Scale bar = 200 µm. (F-J) Representative bright-field images of the outside periphery of both HaCaT (F) , HSC-5 (G) , CAL27 (H) , A549 (I) and U2OS (J) cell sheets at 0, 24, 48 and 72h of migration after removing the insert. The yellow arrowheads point towards multicellular structures called fingers. Scale bar = 200 µm. (K) Wound area after 0, 24, 48 and 72h of HaCaT, HSC-5, CAL27, A549 and U2OS cell migration. For each condition, 3 to 8 pictures per experiment obtained in 3 independent experiments were analysed. All the data are presented as mean ± s.d. and tested by Kruskal-Wallis (ns: not significant; *: p<0,05; **: p<0,01; ****: p<0,0001).
