Abstract:Microtubule (MT) dynamics quantification includes modeling of elongation, rapid shortening, and pauses. It indicates the effect of the cancer treatment drug paclitaxel because the drug causes MTs to bundle, which will in turn inhibit successful mitosis of cancerous cells. Thus, automatic MT dynamics analysis has been researched intensely because it allows for faster evaluation of potential cancer treatments and better understanding of drug effects on a cell. However, most current literatures still use manual i… Show more
