This project investigates the physical properties of the actin cortex in cancer cells, focusing on the interactions between the acto-myosin network and the plasma membrane. By employing advanced optical methods, it aims to quantify cell mechanics and understand how these factors contribute to cancer cell motility and p…
The lethal potential of cancer is due to abnormal cell division and aggressive metastatic activity that turn resting cancer cells into motile structures which spread through an organism, resulting in numerous and often uncontrollably growing subpopulations.
It is well known that both cell motility and cell division depend crucially on cell mechanics, namely on actin cortex.
The actin cortex consists of a dense biopolymer network, steadily contracted by myosin motors. A key to understanding the a…
