Effect of cytochalasin-D on BAEC actin filaments.

(a) Control (untreated) BAEC. (b) Same cell as in panel a after incubation for 120 min in cytochalasin-D at 1000 nM. Note actin filament bundles being disrupted at various locations throughout the cell and actin aggregates forming at the cell periphery. Scale bar is 20 μm. See supplemental movies S2 and S3 for time lapse of actin filament depolymerization over time under the effect of cytochalasin-D.
