Pressure-induced depolymerization of spindle microtubules. i1. thermodynamics of in vivo spindle assemblyEvidence from light microscopy (principally polarization microscopy) has demonstrated that hydrostatic pressure can reversibly inhibit mitosis by rapidly depolymerizing the spindle fiber microtubules....
High resolution r-bands produced in equine chromosomes after incorporation of bromodeoxyuridine... Among other differences with the standard technique, this addltion does not use Colcemid, which, in addltion to Inhibiting spindle fiber formation, also increases chromosome contraction resulting in thicker and thus fewer bands....
Control of ankle position using neural feedbackJournal ArticleThis paper describes a closed loop control system that uses afferent neural activity from muscle spindle fibers as feedback for controlling ankle position....
Temperature dependence of anaphase chromosome velocity and microtubule depolymerization... The rate of anaphase chromosome movement is associated with an apparent first-order process of spindle fiber disassembly....
