ABSTRACT
It is believed that there exists some relationship between the distribution and morphology of intracellular actin and cell adherence. Cells are likely to be deteched when the quantity of actin filament decreases. Actin filaments locate in the fringe of cancer cells and cells cultured in static state, so that these filaments can stretch out and form pseudopodia to adhere to the matrix. When these cells are stimulated their pseudopodia retract so that they can easily be detached from the matrix. When external forces are exerted on cells to adhere and deadhere from the matrix, the morphology and distribution of skeleton actin will change, so as the cells' morphology. The skeleton actins in cells are changed differently to adapt to different external forces which are imposed on the cells. It is obvious that the relationship between the mechanism of cell adhering to the matrix and the morphology & distribution of actins needs more attention.
