Using laser tweezers microscopy to apply defined forces to matrix-coated beads and mutant cell lines, we are studying the molecular pathways of force sensation and force generation (Galbraith and Sheetz, 1999).
Current studies are focussing on 1) the cytoskeleton component that senses force, 2) the phosphatase that causes reinforcement, 3) the integrin-cytoskeleton linkage, 4) coordination of motility and force on matrix fibers, and 5) the molecular basis of reinforcement.
Numerous studies of membrane-cytoskeleton adhesion using laser tweezers to form tethers on the plasma membrane have shown that the tether force is inversely proportional to the rates of endocytosis (Dai et al., 1997; Raucher and Sheetz, 1999), membrane extension (Raucher and Sheetz, 1999), and membrane resealing.

 Forces in and on Membranes Alter Motility and Adhesion by Michael Sheetz
The laser tweezers provide us with the ability to apply and measure forces on cells under conditions where we can document the functional consequences.
In the first case, the laser tweezers was used to develop tethers from the cell plasma membrane and to measure the force on those tethers as an indicator of the apparent membrane tension.
We suggest that the development of force results in signals being generated locally and does not involve a long range signaling process as suggested in tensegrity models.
