Good chat over on Twitter about this preprint from Manuel Thery, Laurent Blanchoin and colleagues:
"Microtubules under mechanical pressure can breach dense actin networks"

A little cytochalasin promotes ciliogenesis. I wonder if the actin mesh around the centrosome acts to prevent premature axoneme extension. Do the early stages of ciliogenesis provide the microtubule pressure to breach that actin network? Thought provoking work #cilia #cellbiology @cilia
