Microfilaments and microtubules maintain endothelial integrity

Microscopy Research and Technique, 2002
AbstractThe endothelium is a highly metabolic monolayer of cells regulating numerous physiological and pathological functions that maintain the permeability and thromboresistant functions of the endothelium. The structure and function of the endothelial cytoskeleton prevents vascular disease by regulating the structure of the endothelium to act as a ...

Cytoplasmic microfilaments in streaming Nitella cells

Journal of Ultrastructure Research, 1966
The plant Nitella was selected for study with respect to the ultrastructural basis for rotational streaming. Much observational and experimental work locates the site of motive force for streaming in the interface between the moving endoplasm and stationary ectoplasm.

Actin microfilament dynamics in locomoting cells

Nature, 1991
The dynamic behaviour of actin filaments has been directly observed in living, motile cells using fluorescence photoactivation. In goldfish epithelial keratocytes, the actin microfilaments in the lamellipodium remain approximately fixed relative to the substrate as the cell moves over them, regardless of cell speed.

Microtubules and Microfilaments

1981
Next to membranes, there is probably no other cellular element as ubiquitous as the microtubule and related fibrillar structures. Although their presence was first suggested by Sigmund Freud (1882), then a young cell biologist working on live crayfish neurons, their actual existence could only be asserted with some assurance even as late as the mid ...

Regulation of Microfilament Assembly

1991
The cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells contains a highly organized cytoskeleton. Motility and morphological changes of cells appear to depend on the cytoskeleton. Assembly, disassembly of the cytoskeleton and translocation of the constituents of the cytoskeleton underlie motility and shape changes of cells.
