Cell migration is frequently accompanied by changes in cell morphology
(morphodynamics) on a range of spatial and temporal scales. Despite recent
advances in imaging techniques, the application of unbiased computational image
analysis methods for morphodynamic quantification is rare. For example, manual
analysis using kymographs is still commonplace, often caused by lack of access to
user-friendly, automated tools. We now describe software designed for the
automated quantification of cell migration and morphodynamics. Implemented as a
plug-in for the open-source platform, ImageJ, ADAPT is capable of rapid,
automated analysis of migration and membrane protrusions, together with
associated fluorescently labeled proteins, across multiple cells. We demonstrate
the ability of the software by quantifying variations in cell population
migration rates on different extracellular matrices. We also show that ADAPT can
detect and morphologically profile filopodia. Finally, we have used ADAPT to
compile an unbiased description of a "typical" bleb formed at the plasma membrane
and quantify the effect of Arp2/3 complex inhibition on bleb retraction.
