Nuclear actin controls MSC differentiation. Cytochalasin D treatment of MSC causes rapid cofilin/importin-9 dependent transfer of G-actin into the nucleus. Actin elongation inside the nucleus supports both osteogenesis and adipogenesis, while secondary branching of actin polymers is specifically necessary for osteogenic differentiation.
