Investigating circular dorsal ruffles through varying substrate stiffness and mathematical modeling

Circular dorsal ruffles (CDRs) are transient actin-rich ring-like structures which form on the dorsal surface of growth-factor stimulated cells. However, the dynamics and mechanism of formation of CDRs are still unknown. It has been observed that CDR formation leads to stress fibers disappearing nea...
