The LINC-anchored actin cap connects the extracellular milieu to the nucleus for ultrafast mechanotransduction

Cells continuously sense and respond to external mechanical forces through their cytoskeleton. Here we show that only a small subset of actin fibers, those forming the perinuclear actin cap that wraps around the nucleus, form in response to low physiological mechanical stresses in adherent fibroblas...
