Elasticity

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Migration through physical constraints is enabled by MAPK-induced cell softening via actin cytoskeleton re-organization
    Dominika A. Rudzka, Giulia Spennati, David J. McGarry, Ya-Hua Chim, Matthew Neilson, Aleksandra Ptak, June Munro, Gabriela Kalna, Ann Hedley, Daniela Moralli, Catherine Green, Susan Mason, Karen Blyth, Margaret Mullin, Huabing Yin, Michael F. Olson
    Journal of Cell Science 2019 132: jcs224071 doi: 10.1242/jcs.224071 Published 31 May 2019

    Highlighted Article: Selection for tumour cells that efficiently pass through narrow diameter microporous membranes reveals a prominent role for MAPK signalling in regulating cell elasticity.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Matrix stiffness mechanically conditions EMT and migratory behavior of oral squamous cell carcinoma
    Bibiana F. Matte, Aditya Kumar, Jesse K. Placone, Virgílio G. Zanella, Manoela D. Martins, Adam J. Engler, Marcelo L. Lamers
    Journal of Cell Science 2019 132: jcs224360 doi: 10.1242/jcs.224360 Published 9 January 2019

    Highlighted Article: Matrix stiffness modulates OSCC cell migration similarly to that of other epithelial carcinomas but by using a different focal-adhesion-mediated mechanism.

  • SHORT REPORT
    Membrane fluctuations and acidosis regulate cooperative binding of ‘marker of self’ protein CD47 with the macrophage checkpoint receptor SIRPα
    Jan Steinkühler, Bartosz Różycki, Cory Alvey, Reinhard Lipowsky, Thomas R. Weikl, Rumiana Dimova, Dennis E. Discher
    Journal of Cell Science 2019 132: jcs216770 doi: 10.1242/jcs.216770 Published 16 July 2018

    Summary: Binding of membrane proteins smooths the fluctuating membrane and facilitates more binding, which can be very important for weak immunological interactions such as the interaction of macrophage SIRPα with CD47 on cancer cells.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Impact of substrate elasticity on human hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell adhesion and motility
    Cornelia Lee-Thedieck, Nicole Rauch, Roberto Fiammengo, Gerd Klein, Joachim P. Spatz
    Journal of Cell Science 2012 125: 3765-3775; doi: 10.1242/jcs.095596
