摘要:: Transformation-specific F-actin structures are examined in tumor cells after in vitro tumor cell growth alone or on an untransformed cell monolayer. In transformed cells F-actin aggregates near the ventral plasma membrane in close substrate adhesion areas contain the cytoskeletal proteins alpha-actinin and fimbrin but, unlike microfilament bundles, are not labeled with antibody against tropomyosin. By electron microscopy the dense ventral aggregates in transformed cells resemble stress fiber termini found at the membrane in normal cells. These transformed-cell cytoskeletal structures are not limited solely to substrate adhesion areas; they are also expressed at cell-cell contacts about 48 h after transformed cells are plated on untransformed cells. These specialized F-actin aggregates appear to be implicated in the processes of penetration of these transformed cells between adjoining untransformed cells in vitro.
