Abstract
Modern light microscopy has evolved to provide a variety of quantitative imaging techniques and also the capability to perturb structure-function relationships in living cells. The advances have been especially useful in the study of cell adhesion and migration. This review will focus on how such microscopy-based techniques can be useful in situ to study the molecular interactions and dynamics, to locally perturb actin-based structures and to measure the traction forces exerted by motile cells.Mesh：
