  text: T lymphocytes utilize amoeboid migration to navigate effectively within complex
    microenvironments. The precise rearrangement of the actin cytoskeleton required
    for cellular forward propulsion is mediated by actin regulators, including the
    actin‐related protein 2/3 (Arp2/3) complex, a macromolecular machine that nucleates
    branched actin filaments at the leading edge. The consequences of modulating Arp2/3
    activity on the biophysical properties of the actomyosin cortex and downstream
    T cell function are incompletely understood. We report that even a moderate decrease
    of Arp3 levels in T cells profoundly affects actin cortex integrity. Reduction
    in total F‐actin content leads to reduced cortical tension and disrupted lamellipodia
    formation. Instead, in Arp3‐knockdown cells, the motility mode is dominated by
    blebbing migration characterized by transient, balloon‐like protrusions at the
    leading edge. Although this migration mode seems to be compatible with interstitial
    migration in three‐dimensional environments, diminished locomotion kinetics and
    impaired cytotoxicity interfere with optimal T cell function. These findings define
    the importance of finely tuned, Arp2/3‐dependent mechanophysical membrane integrity
    in cytotoxic effector T lymphocyte activities.
