Cytokinesis mechanics and mechanosensing.
Cytokinesis shape change occurs through the interfacing of three modules, cell mechanics, myosin II-mediated contractile stress generation and sensing, and a control system of regulatory proteins, which together ensure flexibility and robustness. This integrated system then defines the stereotypical shape changes of successful cytokinesis, which occurs under a diversity of mechanical contexts a...
متن کاملSnapShot: Mechanosensing Matrix
Cells sense and respond to properties of their microenvironment that can affect cell morphology, protein levels and localization, gene expression, and even nuclear integrity. Tissue micro-stiffness, largely influenced by extracellular matrix, varies dramatically within an organism and can be a useful parameter to both clarify and organize a wide range of cell and molecular processes, such as ge...
متن کاملMechanosensing: A Regulation Sensation
Mechanosensing of surfaces in bacteria is a process that often uses obstruction of flagellum rotation to trigger behaviors such as adhesion and surface-associated movement. In a recent publication, the PilY1 protein of Pseudomonas aeruginosa has been implicated as a novel mechanosensor that stimulates virulence in response to surface attachment.
متن کاملMechanosensing in T lymphocyte activation.
Mechanical forces play an increasingly recognized role in modulating cell function. This report demonstrates mechanosensing by T cells, using polyacrylamide gels presenting ligands to CD3 and CD28. Naive CD4 T cells exhibited stronger activation, as measured by attachment and secretion of IL-2, with increasing substrate elastic modulus over the range of 10-200 kPa. By presenting these ligands o...
متن کاملReceptor-mediated cell mechanosensing
Mechanosensing describes the ability of a cell to sense mechanical cues of its microenvironment, including not only all components of force, stress, and strain but also substrate rigidity, topology, and adhesiveness. This ability is crucial for the cell to respond to the surrounding mechanical cues and adapt to the changing environment. Examples of responses and adaptation include (de)activatio...
