## Abstract Actin filaments could play a role in regulation of cell swelling by two distinct mechanisms. One is by a tensile mechanism involving the coordinated interaction of actin and actin‐associated proteins with all plasma membrane domains. The actin‐membrane linkage would restrain cell swelli
Cultured rat hepatocytes self-assemble into three-dimensional structures or spheroids that exhibit ultrastructural characteristics of native hepatic tissue and enhanced liver-specific functions. The spheroid formation process involves cell translocation and changes in cell shape, indicative of the r
