## Abstract Mature oligodendrocytes are characterized by their numerous cytoplasmic extensions and flat membranous sheets. These sheets contain an extensive cytoskeletal network of microtubules (MTs) that maintain the cellular morphology, are specifically important for cellular sorting, and provide
## Abstract Oligodendrocytes, the myelinβforming cells of the central nervous system, are in culture characterized by an elaborate process network, terminating in flat membranous sheets that are rich in myelinβspecific proteins and lipids, and spirally wrap axons forming a compact insulating layer
## Abstract The actinβ and myosinβbinding protein, caldesmon (CaD) is an essential component of the cytoskeleton in smooth muscle and nonβmuscle cells and is involved in the regulation of cell contractility, division, and assembly of actin filaments. CaD is abundantly present in endothelial cells (
## Abstract A hydrostatic pressure of 60g/cm sq (0.85 psi) inhibits the accumulation of cAMP in cells isolated from the proliferative zone of chickβtibia epiphyseal cartilage. The following findings indicate that this effect is mediated by a translocation of calcium: (i) the pressure enhances the c
