Figure 8 Spearman correlation coefficients for the FDs and the mean cell area.
The void fraction (VF), mean cell area (MCA), and standard deviation of mean cell area (stCA) were computed in order to study the relationship of the MFS with the porosity, coarseness, and heterogeneity of the different bread crumbs.
Figure 9 Spearman correlation coefficients for the FDs and the standard deviation of the mean cell area.
The mean cell area after either pMCAo or TBI (57.13 ± 7.24 or 71.90 ± 9.95, respectively) was lower than that after tMCAo (Figure 5A).
The Spearman correlation coefficient for the four bread types between the fractal dimensions and the void fraction, mean cell area, and standard deviation of mean cell area (in [mm2]) are shown in Figures 7, 8, and 9, respectively, as a function of fractal dimension.
To analyze cell spreading, the mean cell area (50 cells per sample) was determined using Adobe Photoshop version 7.0.
Migration was generally recorded between 1 and 6 hours post plating as the cells were fully spread by 1 hour and the mean cell area did not increase during the time-lapse recording (Figure 2C; wild-type p = 0.209, 74 cells; FLNaKD p = 0.646, 82 cells from 5 independent experiments).
RSN mean cell area was expressed as percentage of RNS mean cell area of CTRL animals.
"Many of the extracted features have obvious or intuitive interpretations, such as mean cell area, eccentricity, intensity.
It makes the measurement of mean cell density (MCD), mean cell area (MCA) possible as well as measurement of variations in cell size (polymegathism) and cell shape (polymorphism).
