text: 'Background: High directional persistence is often assumed to enhance the
efficiency of chemotactic migration. Yet, cells in vivo usually display meandering
trajectories with relatively low directional persistence, and the control and
function of directional persistence during cell migration in three-dimensional
environments are poorly understood. Results: Here, we use mesendoderm progenitors
migrating during zebrafish gastrulation as a model system to investigate the control
of directional persistence during migration in vivo. We show that progenitor cells
alternate persistent run phases with tumble phases that result in cell reorientation.
Runs are characterized by the formation of directed actin-rich protrusions and
tumbles by enhanced blebbing. Increasing the proportion of actin-rich protrusions
or blebs leads to longer or shorter run phases, respectively. Importantly, both
reducing and increasing run phases result in larger spatial dispersion of the
cells, indicative of reduced migration precision. A physical model quantitatively
recapitulating the migratory behavior of mesendoderm progenitors indicates that
the ratio of tumbling to run times, and thus the specific degree of directional
persistence of migration, are critical for optimizing migration precision. Conclusions:
Together, our experiments and model provide mechanistic insight into the control
of migration directionality for cells moving in three-dimensional environments
that combine different protrusion types, whereby the proportion of blebs to actin-rich
protrusions determines the directional persistence and precision of movement by
regulating the ratio of tumbling to run times.'
