Eukaryotic membrane tethers revisited using magnetic tweezers
(Institute of Physics, 2007)Membrane nanotubes, under physiological conditions, typically form en masse. We employed magnetic tweezers (MTW) to extract tethers from human brain tumor cells and compared their biophysical properties with tethers extracted ... -
Phase transformations in a model mesenchymal tissue
(Institute of Physics, 2004)Connective tissues, the most abundant tissue type of the mature mammalian body, consist of cells suspended in complex microenvironments known as extracellular matrices (ECMs). In the immature connective tissues (mesenchymes) ...
