HGF modulates actin cytoskeleton remodeling and contraction in testicular myoid cells [PDF]
, 2015 The presence of the HGF/Met system in the testicular myoid cells was first discovered by our group. However, the physiological role of this pathway remains poorly understood. We previously reported that HGF increases uPA secretion and TGF-β activation in

Insights Into the Antigenic Repertoire of Unclassified Synaptic Antibodies
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective We sought to characterize the sixth most common finding in our neuroimmunological laboratory practice (tissue assay‐observed unclassified neural antibodies [UNAs]), combining protein microarray and phage immunoprecipitation sequencing (PhIP‐Seq). Methods Patient specimens (258; 133 serums; 125 CSF) meeting UNA criteria were profiled;

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.Objective A leading cause of death among scleroderma (SSc) patients, interstitial lung disease (ILD) remains challenging to prognosticate. The discovery of biomarkers that accurately determine which patients would benefit from close monitoring and aggressive therapy would be an essential clinical tool.

CDC42 and Rac1 control different actin-dependent processes in the Drosophila wing disc epithelium. [PDF]
, 1995 Cdc42 and Rac1 are members of the rho family of small guanosinetriphosphatases and are required for a diverse set of cytoskeleton-membrane interactions in different cell types.

Lung Microphysiological System Validates Novel Cell Therapy for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
Advanced Biology, EarlyView.This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of primed mesenchymal stem cells (pMSCs) as an alternative treatment for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS), based on a novel lung microphysiological system (MPS) to test the efficacy of pMSCs over the standard treatment, Dexamethasone.

A Role for Exocytosis in the Spatial Regulationof Actin Organization
The Scientific World Journal, 2003 The efficient organization of the actin cytoskeleton is important for many cellular functions. However, how the local actin organization is regulated in a cell is not well understood.

Advanced Biology, EarlyView.In this study, Seaman et al. develop a co‐culture assay to examine interactions between prostate cancer cells and mineralized osteoblasts in a microfluidic platform. The authors collect conditioned media from static or flow‐stimulated osteocytes and demonstrate that mechanical loading of osteocytes regulates the growth of prostate cancer cells and ...

So far, yet so close: α-Catenin dimers help migrating cells get together [PDF]
, 2017 Epithelial cells in tissues use their actin cytoskeletons to stick together, whereas unattached cells make active plasma membrane protrusions to migrate. In this issue, Wood et al. (2017. J. Cell Biol. https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.201612006) show that the

Profilin as a regulator of the membrane-actin cytoskeleton interface in plant cells
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2013 Membrane structures and cytoskeleton dynamics are intimately inter-connected in the eukaryotic cell. Recently, the molecular mechanisms operating at this interface have been progressively addressed.
