Myosin-independent stiffness sensing by fibroblasts is regulated by the viscoelasticity of flowing actin
Abstract The stiffness of the extracellular matrix induces differential tension within integrin-based adhesions, triggering differential mechanoresponses. However, it has been unclear if the stiffness-dependent differential tension is induced solely by myosin activity. Here, we report that in the ab...
