DOI: 10.1038/s41467-024-48189-1

Abstract: Across the cell cycle, mitochondrial dynamics are regulated by a cycling wave of actin polymerization/depolymerization. In metaphase, this wave induces actin comet tails on mitochondria that propel these organelles to drive spatial mixing, resulting in… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience"

DOI: 10.3389/fncel.2017.00086

Abstract: Hippocampal neurons produce in their early stages of growth propagative, actin-rich dynamical structures called actin waves. The directional motion of actin waves from the soma to the tip of neuronal extensions has been associated with… read more here.
