Antigen-induced B-cell receptor (BCR) signaling is critical for initiating and regulating B-cell activation. The actin cytoskeleton plays essential roles in BCR signaling. Upon encountering cell-surface antigens, actin-driven B-cell spreading amplifies signaling, while B-cell contraction following spreading leads to signal attenuation.

The baculovirus Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV), a pathogen of lepidopteran insects, has a striking dependence on the host cell actin cytoskeleton. During the delayed-early stage of infection, AcMNPV was shown to induce the accumulation of actin at the cortex of infected cells. However, the dynamics and

When crawling through the body, leukocytes often traverse tissues that are densely packed with extracellular matrix and other cells, and this raises the question: How do leukocytes overcome compressive mechanical loads? Here, we show that the actin cortex of leukocytes

Although the formin-nucleated actomyosin cortex has been shown to drive the changes in cell shape that accompany animal cell division in both symmetric and asymmetric cell divisions, the mitotic role of cortical Arp2/3-nucleated actin networks remain unclear. Here using asymmetrically
