The paper measures actin cortex thickness and elasticity in live cells, finding a universal scaling law (E ~ h-2) that depends on actin filament volume fraction.

This study visualizes H2O2 dynamics during neutrophil swarming using a 3D ex vivo system and HyPer7-expressing cells, showing spatially confined and temporally coupled ROS production.

This study proposes a physical model of the nucleus that explains its mechanical behavior under deformation, highlighting the role of the envelope and chromatin in nuclear mechanics.

The paper investigates the kinetic delays in the RhoA signaling cascade during actomyosin contractility in C. elegans embryos and shows they actively control force deployment.

This study identifies two homeostatic mechanisms in mammalian cells that regulate dry mass and volume to maintain a target density during proliferation.

This paper develops genetically encoded fluorescent reporters to quantify actin filament organization in living cells and tissues using fluorescence polarization microscopy.

This study shows that non-muscle myosins NMY-1 and NMY-2 are required for late C. elegans embryonic elongation through redundant roles in epidermal remodeling.

This study maps the dynamic localization of brush border components in C. elegans using high-resolution imaging and genome editing, showing dynamic enrichment during microvilli formation and stability afterward.
