Image analysis for the quantitative comparison of stress fibers and focal adhesions.

Image analysis for the quantitative comparison of stress fibers and focal adhesions.

Actin stress fibers (SFs) detect and transmit forces to the extracellular matrix through focal adhesions (FAs), and molecules in this pathway determine cellular behavior. Here, we designed two different computational tools to quantify actin SFs and the distribution of actin cytoskeletal proteins wit...
