Length control is determined by the pattern of cytoskeleton.

Journal of cell science - 15 Apr 2004

Kharitonova Margarita A, Vasiliev Jury M

Abstract excerpt

In our previous experiments with linear strips of adhesive substrate, we found that elongated cultured fibroblasts preserve their length regardless of cell width and the number of cytoplasmic processes. This constancy of length was called 'length control'. In contrast to fibroblasts, single cultu...
