Bacterial cell shape

Nature Reviews Microbiology, 2005
Bacterial species have long been classified on the basis of their characteristic cell shapes. Despite intensive research, the molecular mechanisms underlying the generation and maintenance of bacterial cell shape remain largely unresolved. The field has recently taken an important step forward with the discovery that eukaryotic cytoskeletal proteins ...

Cell shape and cell division

Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 2006
The correlation between cell shape elongation and the orientation of the division axis described by early cell biologists is still used as a paradigm in developmental studies. However, analysis of early embryo development and tissue morphogenesis has highlighted the role of the spatial distribution of cortical cues able to guide spindle orientation. In

On the Variability in Cell and Nucleus Shapes

Cells Tissues Organs, 2022
Cell morphology is an important regulator of cell function. Many abnormalities in cellular behavior can be discerned from changes in the shape of the cell and its organelles, typically the nucleus. Two major challenges for developing such phenotypic assays are reconstructing 3D surfaces of individual cells and nuclei from confocal images and developing

Shaping in plant cells

Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2001
Plant cells adopt a diversity of different shapes that are adapted to their specific functions. Central to the development of specialised form is the modification of cell-wall composition and organisation. A number of recent papers emphasise the importance of the cell wall to cell shaping, in the definition of both localised regions that are expandable

Fusiform-Shaped Cells

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1987
To the Editor .—In a report by Adams 1 entitled "Neuronal Morphology in the Human Cochlear Nucleus," which appeared in the December 1986 issue of theArchives, there is an erroneous quotation from an article2 that I wrote with Bradley J. Edgerton, PhD.

Engineering Cell Shape and Function

Science, 1994
An elastomeric stamp, containing defined features on the micrometer scale, was used to imprint gold surfaces with specific patterns of self-assembled monolayers of alkanethiols and, thereby, to create islands of defined shape and size that support extracellular matrix protein adsorption and cell attachment.

Red cell shapes in capillaries

Scandinavian Journal of Clinical and Laboratory Investigation, 1981
The deformation of red blood cells (RBCs) has been studied in narrow glass capillaries using two microscopes mounted at right angles to allow three-dimensional analyses. It is found that the RBCs deform primarily by a folding of the disc about the longitudinal axis of the capillary.
