DNA mechanotechnology reveals that integrin receptors apply pN forces in podosomes on fluid substrates
Podosomes are protrusive structures that coordinate diverse functions related to cell invasion, migration, bone resorption and immune surveillance. Here the authors integrate DNA nanotechnology with FLIM-FRET to demonstrate that podosomes apply pN integrin tensile forces to sense and respond to subs...
