What would happen if cells would express more molecular motors ?
They would break all microtubules π±

Is it a problem to have a new government every 2-3 days or a week? I guess there is a problem with the budget approval, but the inner and foreign policies were messy for a while now.

Human primary #Tcell and its #septin ring. Without it, there would be no hydraulic piston effect, and therefore, no amoeboid motility in the confining environments.

βPlease inhibit responsibly: Natural and synthetic actin toxins as useful tools in cell biologyβ
I had a lot of fun going down different actin inhibitor rabbit holes with @onishilab.bsky.social on this perspective!

Just posted (bioRxiv): A novel #mechanobiology model revealing how #immune #Tcells combine a #nucleus as a #piston, an #uropod, and #microenvironment to power #amoeboid #cellmigration in #cellconfinement via a hydraulic cell engine. #CellBiophysics #ImmuneMigration
