Regulation of actomyosin-driven contraction is important for numerous cardiovascular cell functions, including smooth muscle tone, endothelial cell permeability and platelet shape change and spreading. These processes are primarily regulated by the p...

Platelets are a critical cell for prevention of bleeding. Part of the response to the formation of the thrombus is the activation of the actin cytoskeleton, with an inability to effectively activate the cytoskeleton linked to thrombus formation defec...
