Effect of blebbistatin on K562 cell exposed to OTC and showing an oscillation behavior. (a) The black squares represent the behavior of the protrusion of a cell exposed for 6 h to OTC. After 200 s the pressure jump is removed and the pressure is taken back to the initial value. The red triangles represent the behavior of the same cell after it has been exposed to 50 μM blebbistatin for 10 min; The inset reports the corresponding values of the pressure drop during the creep analysis before blebbistatin injection; (b) Log-Log plot of the cell in (a) after it has been exposed to blebbistatin.
