Correlation of the cell mechanical behavior and quantified cytoskeletal parameters in normal and cancerous breast cell lines.

CONCLUSIONS: Results of this study confirmed that alterations in cell mechanical properties induced by cancer are highly correlated with changes in F-actin and microtubule content and arrangement. It is suggested that such changes can enhance our knowledge of cancer initiation and progression. PMID: 31561319 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
