Direct Observations of the Mechanical Behaviors of the Cytoskeleton in Living Fibroblasts

Heidemann, Steven R., Kaech, Stefanie, Buxbaum, Robert E., Matus, Andrew

Cytoskeletal proteins tagged with green fluorescent protein were used to directly visualize the mechanical role of the cytoskeleton in determining cell shape. Rat embryo (REF 52) fibroblasts were...

Mechanical tension can specify axonal fate in hippocampal neurons

Lamoureux, Phillip, Ruthel, Gordon, Buxbaum, Robert E., Heidemann, Steven R.

Here we asked whether applied mechanical tension would stimulate undifferentiated minor processes of cultured hippocampal neurons to become axons and whether tension could induce a second axon in an...
