When the cell s werc treated with cytochalas in E , the diffuse distribution of actin fil am ents was disrupted and condenscd into small aggregates in thc cell s as shown in Fi g 3b, and keratin filaments were also rea rranged into a unique pattern, which was a " lattice" structure consistin g of many foc i of small as teroid aggregations of fil ament bundles (Fig 3a). These fo ci of keratin­ filament assembli es appcared to coin cidc with the small aggregates of actin as indicated by arrows in Fig 3a and b. Observations at hig her magnification rcvcalcd that thc centers of som c o f thcsc k nots wcrc no t staincd with alltikcratin antibody, but they were solidly staincd with antiactin antibody (Fi g 3a and b in sets).

Combined trea tment w ith cytochalas in E and col­ chicine produccd a lattice arrangem cnt of keratin fil am ents almost identica l to that produced by cytochalasin B treatm ent alone (not shown). D ISCUSSION The present study has shown that the disruption of microfilam ents by cytochalas in B induces a reorganization of keratin fil ament networks in cultured human keratinocytcs in the absence of m aj or reorganiza tion of microtubules (Fig 4a and b). Similar effects of cytochalas in B on keratin filament networks have been observed in monkey kidncy TC7 cell s [21). H owever, the TC7 cell s re­ spond to demecolcine-induced disassembly of microtubules so as to reorganize keratin fil am cnt arra ys, although human keratino­ cytes do not respond in this manner to microtubule disassembly (induced by colchicine in the present study) . On the other hand, it has been shown that the combined disruption of microtubule and microfilament cytoskelctons alters the keratin cytoskeletal Figure 3.
