Hydrodynamic effect of the wall on the cell movement in the wrapping mode. (a) Trajectories of cells in the wrapping mode for four combinations of two different initial cell rotation angles (180\(^\circ\), 337.5\(^\circ\)) and two different initial heights (\(h_0=1.0, ~2.5\) \(\upmu\)m), (b) displays percentage of escaping events as a function of \(h_0\) for various initial cell rotation angles, and (c) illustrates snapshots of one escaping event when \(h_0=0.6\) \(\upmu\)m.
