Dembo M, De Penfold J, Ruiz R, Casalta H
Behav Processes
. 2014 Jun;
10(3):241-8.
PMID: 24924240
Four pigeons were trained to peck a key under different values of a temporally defined independent variable (T) and different probabilities of reinforcement (p). Parameter T is a fixed repeating...

Munevar S, Wang Y, Dembo M
Mol Biol Cell
. 2001 Dec;
12(12):3947-54.
PMID: 11739792
Cell migration involves complex physical and chemical interactions with the substrate. To probe the mechanical interactions under different regions of migrating 3T3 fibroblasts, we have disrupted cell-substrate adhesions by local...

Drury J, Dembo M
Biophys J
. 2001 Nov;
81(6):3166-77.
PMID: 11720983
It is generally accepted that the human neutrophil can be mechanically represented as a droplet of polymeric fluid enclosed by some sort of thin slippery viscoelastic cortex. Many questions remain...

Wang H, Dembo M, Hanks S, Wang Y
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A
. 2001 Sep;
98(20):11295-300.
PMID: 11572981
Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) is a non-receptor protein tyrosine kinase localized at focal adhesions and is believed to mediate adhesion-stimulated effects. Although ablation of FAK impairs cell movement, it is...

Beningo K, Dembo M, Kaverina I, Small J, Wang Y
J Cell Biol
. 2001 May;
153(4):881-8.
PMID: 11352946
Fibroblast migration involves complex mechanical interactions with the underlying substrate. Although tight substrate contact at focal adhesions has been studied for decades, the role of focal adhesions in force transduction...

Munevar S, Wang Y, Dembo M
Biophys J
. 2001 Mar;
80(4):1744-57.
PMID: 11259288
Mechanical interactions between cell and substrate are involved in vital cellular functions from migration to signal transduction. A newly developed technique, traction force microscopy, makes it possible to visualize the...

Wang H, Dembo M, Wang Y
Am J Physiol Cell Physiol
. 2000 Oct;
279(5):C1345-50.
PMID: 11029281
One of the hallmarks of oncogenic transformation is anchorage-independent growth (27). Here we demonstrate that responses to substrate rigidity play a major role in distinguishing the growth behavior of normal...

Lo C, Wang H, Dembo M, Wang Y
Biophys J
. 2000 Jun;
79(1):144-52.
PMID: 10866943
Directional cell locomotion is critical in many physiological processes, including morphogenesis, the immune response, and wound healing. It is well known that in these processes cell movements can be guided...

Oliver T, Dembo M, Jacobson K
J Cell Biol
. 1999 May;
145(3):589-604.
PMID: 10225959
Strong, actomyosin-dependent, pinching tractions in steadily locomoting (gliding) fish keratocytes revealed by traction imaging present a paradox, since only forces perpendicular to the direction of locomotion are apparent, leaving the...

Math Biosci
. 1999 Apr;
156(1-2):207-28.
PMID: 10204394
The motion of amoeboid cells is characterized by cytoplasmic streaming and by membrane protrusions and retractions which occur even in the absence of interactions with a substratum. Cell translocation requires,...
