  bibo_abstract:
  - "Cellular locomotion is a central hallmark of eukaryotic life. It is governed
    by cell-extrinsic molecular factors, which can either emerge in the soluble phase
    or as immobilized, often adhesive ligands. To encode for direction, every cue
    must be present as a spatial or temporal gradient. Here, we developed a microfluidic
    chamber that allows measurement of cell migration in combined response to surface
    immobilized and soluble molecular gradients. As a proof of principle we study
    the response of dendritic cells to their major guidance cues, chemokines. The
    majority of data on chemokine gradient sensing is based on in vitro studies employing
    soluble gradients. Despite evidence suggesting that in vivo chemokines are often
    immobilized to sugar residues, limited information is available how cells respond
    to immobilized chemokines. We tracked migration of dendritic cells towards immobilized
    gradients of the chemokine CCL21 and varying superimposed soluble gradients of
    CCL19. Differential migratory patterns illustrate the potential of our setup to
    quantitatively study the competitive response to both types of gradients. Beyond
    chemokines our approach is broadly applicable to alternative systems of chemo-
    and haptotaxis such as cells migrating along gradients of adhesion receptor ligands
    vs. any soluble cue. \r\n@eng"
