    eLife:CNIC scientists identify the essential role of cell-surface "nanofolds" and "glue" in the mechanical response of cells

    A new study published in eLife shows that small cups or nanofolds on the cell membrane called caveolae, by limiting abrupt changes in membrane tension, regulate the number and activity of mechanical microsensors on the cell surface called integrins
