Formation of actin stress fibers and the focal adhesion complex between cell and the substratum are crucial for nonmalignant cells to achieve anchorage-dependent growth. We show here that the adhesion complex formed in normal human mammary epithelial (HME) cells which adhered to type IV collagen, in
Nitric oxide has been proposed to play an important role in neuronal development. We have previously shown that growth cones from an identified neuron, B5, in the snail Helisoma trivolvis, respond to nitric oxide (NO) donors by increasing the length of their filopodia within minutes of application (
