Actomyosin contractility controls cell surface area of oligodendrocytes
BACKGROUND: To form myelin oligodendrocytes expand and wrap their plasma membrane multiple times around an axon. How is this expansion controlled? RESULTS: Here we show that cell surface area depends on actomyosin contractility and is regulated by physical properties of the supporting matrix. Moreov...
