A notion of the dynamic morphotype was developed as a conjunction between cel shape and migration. This enabled the investigation of the relationship between malignancy ond patterns of dynamic morphology in neoplastic cell lines (K2, T15, and A8), differing in metastatic potential, that were instrumental in revealing a coincidence between high migratory activity and appearance of the 3D structure of actin cebles in high-malignant A8 cells (Pokorná et al., 1994).
