Article Title: Myofibrils put the squeeze on nuclei
Abstract: During muscle development, nuclei travel from the centre of the myofibre to the periphery, a process defective in certain diseases. A new study reveals that this movement is due to centripetal forces imposed on nuclei by the crosslinking and contraction of myofibrils. © 2017 Macmillan Publishers Limited, part of Springer Nature.
