Mechanical signals activate p38 MAPK pathway-dependent reinforcement of actin via mechanosensitive HspB1

Despite the importance of a cell's ability to sense and respond to mechanical force, the molecular mechanisms by which physical cues are converted to cell-instructive chemical information to influence cell behaviors remain to be elucidated. Exposure of cultured fibroblasts to uniaxial cyclic st...
