Mechanical Response of Cytoskeletal Networks For example, pure F-actin solutions, weakly cross-linked actin networks (Gardel et al , 2004a; Xu et al , 1998), and pure microtubule networks (Lin et al , 2007) all show stress-softening behavior Under compression, branched, dendritic networks of F-actin are also shown to reversibly stress soften at high loads (Chaudhuri et al , 2007)

Stressing the limits of focal adhesion mechanosensitivity Gardel ML, Sabass B, Ji L, Danuser G, Schwarz US, Waterman CM: Traction stress in focal adhesions correlates biphasically with actin retrograde flow speed J Cell Biol 2008, 183:999-1005
United we stand – integrating the actin cytoskeleton and cell . . . By quantitatively assessing the retrograde flow dynamics of lamellipodial actin with fluorescent speckle microscopy in addition to measuring cell traction force, correlations between actin retrograde-flow dynamics and the magnitude of the traction force can be obtained (Gardel et al , 2008)
