'Time-lapsed video microscopy and confocal imaging were used to study the migration of wild-type (WT) and mitogen-activated protein kinase-activated protein kinase 2 (MK2-/-) mouse neutrophils in Zigmond chambers containing fMLP gradients. Confocal images of polarized WT neutrophils showed an intracellular gradient of phospho-MK2 from the anterior to the posterior region ... More
