Cell migration of HHV-6-infected microglial cells. a Cell migration assay system where target microglial cells were plated in the upper chamber insert on a membrane support with defined 8-μm pores. The insert was then placed in a dish of test cells (lower chamber) that were either mock infected or infected with 100:1 m.o.i. b Representative images of target microglial cells stained with Syto 9. c Average total Syto 9 staining (pixel density) of target cells after thresholding to remove the defined background signal (image in Fig. 4b). Values were obtained from three random low-power fields for each condition in each of the duplicated samples. The experiment was repeated three times with similar results
