Measuring Laplace pressure and imaging the actin cortex during cytokinesis in cultured cells
Summary: Laplace pressure is an important regulator of cell dynamics and behavior during cytokinesis. Here, we provide a protocol to measure Laplace pressure in cultured cells using a micropipette and describe the steps for imaging the actin cortex during cytokinesis. The quantification steps allow...
