Cover picture:
Selective stretch imposed on 1 ß-integrins activates Cl and nonselective
cation currents and inhibits K currents in
ventricular myocytes.
Anti-ß1 integrin mAb-coated paramagnetic beads were attached to
myocytes.
Beads were pulled upwards by an electromagnet that generated a force vector perpendicular
to both the long axis of the myocyte and the membrane.See related article by
Browe, D.M., and C.M. Baumgarten,
