Probing mechanical interaction of immune receptors and cytoskeleton by membrane nanotube extraction
Abstract The role of force application in immune cell recognition is now well established, the force being transmitted between the actin cytoskeleton to the anchoring ligands through receptors such as integrins. In this chain, the mechanics of the cytoskeleton to receptor link, though clearly crucia...
