1/11 We explored how cells adhere to supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) using Invasin, a high-affinity integrin ligand. Surprisingly, cells spread and form mature integrin adhesions on fluid SLBs, revealing novel microtubules-driven mechanotransduction! nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

Cell adhesion and spreading on fluid membranes through microtubules-dependent mechanotransduction

Nature Communications - During cell adhesion, integrins are typically thought to require immobilized ligands for spreading. Here, the authors demonstrate that cells can spread and form mature...

Oleg’s @mikhajlov_oleg paper on cell adhesion on fluid membrane is available biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… We show for the first time that cells adhere and spread on bilateral with strong ligands, due to microtubule/dynein-dependent forces.

Cell adhesion and spreading on fluid membranes through microtubules-dependent mechanotransduction

During cell adhesion, integrins form clusters that transmit mechanical forces to the substrate (mechanotransduction) and regulate biochemical signaling depending on substrate stiffness. In recent...
