Acto-myosin clusters as active units shaping living matter
Karsten Kruse, Rémi Berthoz, Luca Barberi +2
Stress generation by the actin cytoskeleton shapes cells and tissues. Despite impressive progress in live imaging and quantitative physical descriptions of cytoskeletal network dyn…
How to orient cells in micro-cavities for high resolution imaging of cytokinesis and lumen formation
Alka Bhat, Linjie Lu, Chen-Ho Wang +4
Imaging dynamics of cellular morphogenesis with high spatial-temporal resolution in 3D is challenging, due to the low spatial resolution along the optical axis and photo-toxicity.…
Spatial fluctuations at vertices of epithelial layers: quantification of regulation by Rho pathway
É. Fodor, V. Mehandia, J. Comelles +5
In living matter, shape fluctuations induced by acto-myosin are usually studied in vitro via reconstituted gels, whose properties are controlled by changing the concentrations of a…
Protrusion fluctuations direct cell motion
David Caballero, Raphael Voituriez, Daniel Riveline
Many physiological phenomena involve directional cell migration. It is usually attributed to chemical gradients in vivo. Recently, other cues have been shown to guide cells in vitr…
Elastohydrodynamic study of actin filaments using fluorescence microscopy
D. Riveline, Chris H. Wiggins, A. Ott +1
We probed the bending of actin subject to external forcing and viscous drag. Single actin filaments were moved perpendicular to their long axis in an oscillatory way by means of an…
Trapping and Wiggling: Elastohydrodynamics of Driven Microfilaments
Chris H. Wiggins, Daniel X. Riveline, Albrecht Ott +1
We present a general theoretical analysis of semiflexible filaments subject to viscous drag or point forcing. These are the relevant forces in dynamic experiments designed to measu…
