The cells possessed a high migratory ability in a Boyden chamber assay and responded to chemotactic stimulation.

It increased HUVECs migratory ability and the number of tubular structure, promoted vessel formation in HUVECs culture and CAM model.

Both ADRC-conditioned media (CM) and BM-MNC-CM enhanced the migratory ability and interrupted the process of apoptosis in human umbilical vein endothelial cells.

Cell migration assays performed with CTHRC1-overexpressing fibroblasts and smooth muscle cells demonstrate that increased CTHRC1 levels are associated with enhanced migratory ability.

Even after restoring the habitat, "a population's migratory ability does not recover at the same habitat recovery at which it declined," wrote Guttal and Couzin.
