cytoskeleton - (pronounced) (SY-toh-SKEH-leh-do) The large network of protein fibers and other molecules that give shape and structure to the body's cells. The cytoskeleton helps organize structures within the cell called organelles and other substances found in the fluid inside the cell. It plays an important role in many cell functions including cell movement, signaling and cell division. Abnormal changes in the cytoskeleton can lead to the development of many different diseases, including cancer. The cytoskeleton can also affect how cancer cells grow and spread throughout the body.
