Dissecting Individual Ligand-Receptor Bonds with a Laminar Flow Chamber
Anne Pierres, Joana Vitte, Anne-Marie Benoliel +1
The most important function of proteins may well be to bind to other biomolecules. It has long been felt that kinetic rates of bond formation and dissociation between soluble recep…
How cells tiptoe on adhesive surfaces before sticking
Anne Pierres, Anne-Marie Benoliel, Dominique Touchard +1
Cell membranes are studded with protrusions that were thoroughly analyzed with electron microscopy. However, the nanometer-scale three-dimensional motions generated by cell membran…
Mechanical deformation of monocytic THP-1 cells : occurrence of two seqential phases with differential sensitivity to metabolic inhibitors
Pierre Bongrand, Anne-Marie Benoliel, Fabienne Richelme
Blood leukocytes can exhibit extensive morphological changes during their passage through small capillary vessels. The human monocytic THP-1 cell line was used to explore the metab…
