On the Variability in Cell and Nucleus Shapes
Cells Tissues Organs, 2022Cell 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

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.

Red cell shapes in capillaries
Scandinavian Journal of Clinical and Laboratory Investigation, 1981The 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.

How do the cells in our body reconfigure their shape to achieve complex tasks like migration and mitosis, yet maintain their shape in response to forces exerted by, for instance, blood flow and muscle action? Cell shape control is defined by a delicate mechanical balance between active force generation and passive material properties of the plasma ...

Paratene theory of the shapes of cells
Journal of Theoretical Biology, 1967Abstract Paratenes are one-dimensional circular linkage groupings of cell organelles composing the cell surface of Paramecium. In cell division, pre-existing paratenes serve as supertemplates for the replica paratenes which form anteriorly to them thereby enlarging the surface area in an orderly and predictable manner.

Engineering Cell Shape and Function
Science, 1994An 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.

Drebrin is localized in actin-rich regions of neuronal and non-neuronal cells. In mature neurons, its localization is strictly restricted to the postsynaptic sites. In order to understand the function of drebrin in cells, many studies have been performed to examine the effect of overexpression or knocking down of drebrin in various cell types ...

Star-shaped cells of the amacrine cell layer
Cell Biology International Reports, 1988Using silver impregnation techniques and light microscopy we have described a new type of interneuron in the adult chicken retina. These cells are located in the innermost level of the INL. Expansions arise from the basal portion of the perikaryon and ascend from there, ending in the inner third of the INL.

Abstract A simple physical explanation is presented for the shape of normal and pathological mammalian red cells. Experiments with specially prepared tennis balls are described which support the author's major contentions. Photographic plates show the tennis balls after they have taken up various shapes reminiscent of normal and pathological red ...

Stimulation of Spheroidal Cells - The Role of Cell Shape
IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering, 1976The behavior of spheroidal cells in an applied uniform field is examined in order to gain insight into the role of cell shape in the electrical activity of biological cells. The responses of cells having different eccentricities but the same height in the direction of stimulation are compared.
