MECHANOSENSITIVITY

Mechanotransduction mediated by microtubules

Nature Materials volume 21, pages 271–272 (2022)Cite this article

Subjects

Integrin-mediated substrate-rigidity sensing triggers microtubule acetylation, modulating mechanosensitive cellular responses and focal adhesion dynamics, subsequently promoting actomyosin organization and collective cell migration.
