AbstractWe examined the dynamics of radial actin bundles based on time-lapse movies of polarized light images of living neuronal growth cones. Using a highly sensitive computer vision algorithm for tracking, we analyzed the small shape fluctuations of radial actin bundles that otherwise remained stationary in their positions in the growth cone lamellipodium. Using the tracking software, we selected target points on radial bundles and measured both the local bundle orientations and the lateral displacements between consecutive movie frames. We found that the local orientation and the lateral displacement of a target point are correlated. The correlation can be explained using a simple geometric relationship between the lateral travel of tilt...
