(A) Mosaic of seven 60×60μm AFM contact mode height images obtained after fixation of the HAEC in Fig. . (B) Fluorescent micrograph of the same cell stained with rhodamine-phalloidin to identify f-actin. There is a clear correlation between the filamentous structures identified by AFM and actin fiber bundles in the cytoskeleton, some of which are distinctly nonlinear (arrows).
