Microsurgery-aided in-situ force probing reveals extensibility and viscoelastic properties of individual stress fibers

Jean-Jacques Meister, Alexander Verkhovskiy, Chiara Gabella, Benoît Vianay, Céline Jeanne Labouesse

Actin-myosin filament bundles (stress fibers) are critical for tension generation and cell shape, but their mechanical properties are difficult to access. Here we propose a novel approach to probe individual peripheral stress fibers in living cells through ...

Cell Shape Dynamics Reveal Balance of Elasticity and Contractility in Peripheral Arcs

Jean-Jacques Meister, Alexander Verkhovskiy, Chiara Gabella, Benoît Vianay, Céline Jeanne Labouesse

The mechanical interaction between adherent cells and their substrate relies on the formation of adhesion sites and on the stabilization of contractile acto-myosin bundles, or stress fibers. The shape of the cell and the orientation of these fibers can be ...

Mechanical properties of peripheral stress fibers in adherent cells spreading on patterned substrates

Céline Jeanne Labouesse

Many cellular processes require or depend on mechanical feedback from the cell's micro-environment. For example, the local organization of the actin cytoskeleton is known to adapt to the physical properties of the extracellular matrix. To gain better under ...

An actin length threshold regulates adhesion maturation at the lamellipodium/lamellum interface

Jean-Jacques Meister, Benoît Vianay, Céline Jeanne Labouesse

The mechanical coupling between adherent cells and their substrates is a major driver of downstream behavior. This coupling relies on the formation of adhesion sites and actin bundles. How cells generate these elements remains only partly understood. A pot ...
