The effects of mechanical strain on adhesion in Myh9-ablated podocytes

Myh9 is a gene that encodes for non-muscle myosin IIA (NM-IIA), an actin cytoskeleton component and protein involved in cell movement and adhesion in most cells, including podocytes. Autosomal dominant mutations in NM-IIA have been associated with focal segmental glomerular sclerosis (FSGS) in patie...
