Imaging-derived mean square displacement (iMSD) analysis is applied to macropinosomes to highlight their intrinsic time-evolving nature in terms of structural and dynamic properties. Macropinosomes are then compared to insulin secretory granules (ISGs) as a reference for subcellular structures with time-invariant average structural/dynamic properties.
