Significance of microtubule catastrophes at focal adhesion sites.

abstract：:In this review, we summarized data on the formation and structure of the long and highly adhesive membrane tubulovesicular extensions (TVEs, membrane tethers or cytonemes) observed in human neutrophils and other mammalian cells, protozoan parasites and bacteria. We determined that TVEs are membrane protrusions charact...
