Chromatin and cytoskeletal tethering determine nuclear morphology in progerin expressing cells
M. C. Lionetti, S. Bonfanti, M. R. Fumagalli +6
The nuclear morphology of eukaryotic cells is determined by the interplay between the lamina forming the nuclear skeleton, the chromatin inside the nucleus and the coupling with th…
Unjamming of active rotators
Linda Ravazzano, Maria Chiara Lionetti, Maria Rita Fumagalli +5
Active particle assemblies can exhibit a wide range of interesting dynamical phases depending on internal parameters such as density, adhesion strength or self-propulsion. Active s…
Protein driven lipid domain nucleation in biological membranes
Moritz Hoferer, Silvia Bonfanti, Alessandro Taloni +2
Lipid rafts are heterogeneous dynamic lipid domains of the cell membranes that are involved in several biological processes, like protein and lipids specific transport and signalin…
From jamming to collective cell migration through a boundary induced transition
Oleksandr Chepizhko, Maria Chiara Lionetti, Chiara Malinverno +3
Cell monolayers provide an interesting example of active matter, exhibiting a phase transition from a flowing to jammed state as they age. Here we report experiments and numerical…
Cholesterol impairment contributes to neuroserpin aggregation
Costanza Giampietro, Maria Chiara Lionetti, Giulio Costantini +3
Intraneural accumulation of misfolded proteins is a common feature of several neurodegenerative pathologies including Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, and Familial Encephalopa…
Volume changes during active shape fluctuations in cells
Alessandro Taloni, Elena Kardash, Oguz Umut Salman +3
Cells modify their volume in response to changes in osmotic pressure but it is usually assumed that other active shape variations do not involve significant volume fluctuations. He…
