Growth, Shape change and Latrunculin B video clips
Files in this Data Supplement:
Growth
-
Elongation of processes of an arterial ICC-like (AIL) cell during 32 min in physiological saline solution. Speeded up approximately 1000 times.
Latrunculin B
-
Latrunculin B, an actin polymerisation inhibitor, abolished the elongation of processes of an AIL cell. The video clip shows the period of 32 min, speeded up approximately 1000 times.
Shape change
-
Change of shape of an AIL cell that occurred during 32 min in physiological saline solution (left) was greatly inhibited by latrunculin B, an actin polymerisation inhibitor (right). Speeded up approximately 1000 times.
