“…A and F were taken before lysis; B and G, 1 min after lysis ; C and H, 2 min after lysis ; D and 1, 4 min after lysis ; and E and 1, 6 min after lysis . Bar,5 ,um . and cytochalasin B, but in 10 mM ATP and in NEM-S,, furrow diameter increased slowly and relaxation often did not occur until several minutes after lysis. These observations suggest that cytochalasin B, alkaline pH, and high calcium act directly on the contractile ring to disorganize and relax the furrow, and that NEWS, and high ATP have an indirect effect on furrow integrity.…”
