Mechanical interplay between cell shape and actin cytoskeleton organization
Koen Schakenraad, Jeremy Ernst, Wim Pomp +4
We investigate the mechanical interplay between the spatial organization of the actin cytoskeleton and the shape of animal cells adhering on micropillar arrays. Using a combination…

Cytoskeletal Anisotropy Controls Geometry and Forces of Adherent Cells
Wim Pomp, Koen Schakenraad, Hayri E. Balcioğlu +5
We investigate the geometrical and mechanical properties of adherent cells characterized by a highly anisotropic actin cytoskeleton. Using a combination of theoretical work and exp…
