Cytoskeletal bundle mechanics.
The mechanical properties of cytoskeletal actin bundles play an essential role in numerous physiological processes, including hearing, fertilization, cell migration, and growth. Cells employ a multitude of actin-binding proteins to actively regulate bundle dimensions and cross-linking properties to suit biological function. The mechanical properties of actin bundles vary by orders of magnitude ...

متن کاملMechanics and dynamics of reconstituted cytoskeletal systems.
The intracellular cytoskeleton is an active dynamic network of filaments and associated binding proteins that control key cellular properties, such as cell shape and mechanics. Due to the inherent complexity of the cell, reconstituted model systems have been successfully employed to gain an understanding of the fundamental physics governing cytoskeletal processes. Here, we review recent advance...
متن کاملModels of cytoskeletal mechanics of adherent cells.
Adherent cells sense their mechanical environment, which, in turn, regulates their functions. During the past decade, a growing body of evidence has indicated that a deformable, solid-state intracellular structure known as the cytoskeleton (CSK) plays a major role in transmitting and distributing mechanical stresses within the cell as well as in their conversion into a chemical response. Theref...
متن کاملModels of cytoskeletal mechanics based on tensegrity
Cell shape is an important determinant of cell function and it provides a regulatory mechanism to the cell. The idea that cell contractile stress may determine cell shape stability came with the model that depicts the cell as tensed membrane that surrounds viscous cytoplasm. Ingber has further advanced this idea of the stabilizing role of the contractile stress. However, he has argued that tens...
