The forces behind cell movementRevathi Ananthakrishnan
Laboratory for Cell and Computational Biology, University of California at Davis, Davis, CA 95616, USA
Int J Biol Sci 3:303-17. 2007..Each of these steps is driven by physical forces generated by unique segments of the cytoskeleton. This review examines the specific physics underlying these phases of cell movement and the origins of the forces that drive locomotion...

Weak force stalls protrusion at the leading edge of the lamellipodiumSophie Bohnet
Laboratory of Cell Biophysics, Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne EPFL, Lausanne, Switzerland
Biophys J 90:1810-20. 2006..We conclude that a weak external force is sufficient to reorient the growing actin network at the leading edge and to stall the protrusion...
