Directional control of cell polarization revealed by quantitative measurement and mathematical modeling

细胞沿动物身体的轴线极化。细胞极性是通过蛋白质运动的动态平衡来维持的。在这项研究中，我成功地应用和开发了新的系统来定量地揭示蛋白质动力学的发育生物学（边缘检测图像处理程序，荧光相关光谱（FCS），全内反射荧光显微镜（TIRFM））。基于本研究的成果，我将进行数学建模来理解细胞极化作为一个动力系统。

Cells polarize along with the axes of the animal body. Cell polarity is maintained by dynamic equilibrium of protein movements. In this study, I succeeded to apply and develop the new systems to reveal protein dynamics quantitatively to developmental biology (Edge-detection image processing program, Fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS), Total internal reflection fluorescence microscope (TIRFM)). Based on the achievements of this study, I will carry out mathematical modeling to understand cell polarization as a dynamical system.
