Journal ArticleDOI

Actin cortex mechanics and cellular morphogenesis.

TL;DR: This review summarizes current knowledge on the structural organization, composition, and mechanics of the actin cortex, focusing on the link between molecular processes and macroscopic physical properties and consequences of cortex dysfunction in disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of cortical tension in bleb growth

TL;DR: It is shown that there is a critical tension below which blebs cannot expand, and this dependence can be fitted with a model of the cortex as an active elastic material, and insights are provided as to how bleb formation can be biochemically regulated during cell motility.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adhesion functions in cell sorting by mechanically coupling the cortices of adhering cells.

TL;DR: It is shown that cell adhesion and cortex tension have different mechanical functions in controlling progenitor cell-cell contact formation and sorting during zebrafish gastrulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Forces Driving Epithelial Spreading in Zebrafish Gastrulation

TL;DR: It is shown that the spreading of the enveloping cell layer (EVL) over the yolk cell during zebrafish gastrulation is driven by a contractile actomyosin ring, and that this ring functions not only by circumferential contraction but also by a flow-friction mechanism.
