The cytoskeleton is a permanent construction site consisting of protein filaments that are continually lengthening and shortening in a dynamic process. Through these remodeling processes, the cell ...

However, many artificial cells to date cannot be used to study how cells respond to forces as they don't have a cytoskeleton. TU/e researchers have designed a polymer-based network for artificial ...

Study shows cell's cytoskeleton does more than hold up a cell, it transfers energy by Milady Nazir, University of Texas at San Antonio Could a cell's scaffold lead to dementia?

During cell division, a series of checkpoints make sure that events are proceeding normally. The latest checkpoint to be discovered monitors the actin cytoskeleton, ensuring that it is organized ...

UTSA research: Electrical properties of cytoskeleton could contribute to cell degradation (May 8, 2019) – Dysfunctions and malformations in the scaffold of a cell are thought to contribute to heart ...

Dysfunctions and malformations in the scaffold of a cell are thought to contribute to heart muscle weakness, neurodegenerative disease and even deafness.

The cell's cytoskeleton, or filaments, are responsible for a cell's shape. They also organize cellular parts and impact a cell's movement and division.

Promising proteomics strategies could augment our understanding of the role of the cytoskeleton in the host-defense mechanisms of immune cells.
