Actin cytoskeleton in angiogenesis

Biology Open, 2022
ABSTRACTActin, one of the most abundant intracellular proteins in mammalian cells, is a critical regulator of cell shape and polarity, migration, cell division, and transcriptional response. Angiogenesis, or the formation of new blood vessels in the body is a well-coordinated multi-step process.

Actin Cytoskeleton: A Team Effort during Actin Assembly [PDF]

Current Biology, 2012
Two recent studies highlight how tandems of previously described actin nucleators collaborate to produce new actin filaments. One key player in these collaborations is formin, which appears to function as a modulator of filament elongation.

Actin cytoskeleton regulates Hippo signaling. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Hippo pathway controls the organ size by modulating cell proliferation and apoptosis. However, the upstream regulation of hippo signaling by actin cytoskeleton is not clear.

The role of actin cytoskeleton CFL1 and ADF/cofilin superfamily in inflammatory response [PDF]

Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences
Actin remodeling proteins are important in immune diseases and regulate cell cytoskeletal responses. These responses play a pivotal role in maintaining the delicate balance of biological events, protecting against acute or chronic inflammation in a range

Actin Cytoskeleton and Integrin Components Are Interdependent for Slit Diaphragm Maintenance in Drosophila Nephrocytes [PDF]

Cells
In nephrotic syndrome, the podocyte filtration structures are damaged in a process called foot process effacement. This is mediated by the actin cytoskeleton; however, which actins are involved and how they interact with other filtration components, like

Regulation of actin cytoskeleton via photolithographic micropatterning

Journal of Innovative Optical Health Sciences, 2023
Actin cytoskeleton plays crucial roles in various cellular functions. Extracellular matrix (ECM) can modulate cell morphology by remodeling the internal cytoskeleton.

Influence of ROCK Pathway Manipulation on the Actin Cytoskeleton Height

Cells, 2022
The actin cytoskeleton with its dynamic properties serves as the driving force for the movement and division of cells and gives the cell shape and structure. Disorders in the actin cytoskeleton occur in many diseases.

Chronic cholesterol depletion increases F-actin levels and induces cytoskeletal reorganization via a dual mechanism

Journal of Lipid Research, 2022
Previous work from us and others has suggested that cholesterol is an important lipid in the context of the organization of the actin cytoskeleton.
