WASP-Arp2/3-dependent actin polymerization influences fusogen localization during cell-cell fusion in Caenorhabditis elegans embryos

Biology Open, 2017
Cell-cell fusion is essential for development and physiology. Actin polymerization was implicated in the Caenorhabditis elegans fusogen EFF-1 engagement in a reconstituted Drosophila cell culture system, and the actin-binding protein spectraplakin links ...

The Range of Cooperativity Modulates Actin Binding Protein Cluster Size, Density and Dynamics [PDF]

arXiv, 2018
The actin cytoskeleton is composed of multiple networks which are specialized for several processes such as cell motility or cell division. Each of these networks are composed of organized actin microfilaments which are decorated with specific sets of actin binding proteins (ABPs).

P3HT‐Based Electroactive Films for In Vitro Neuronal Cell Interfacing

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Reducing the mechanical mismatch between bioelectronic devices and tissue is crucial for enhancing the characteristics of biointerfaces that better mimic the biological tissues. This work investigates the physico‐chemical properties of tunable nanostructured surfaces obtained from a blend of P3HT and MWCNT electroactive polymer.

3D Printed Magnetic Origami Scaffolds for Guided Tissue Assembly

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
3D‐printed magnetic origami scaffolds enhance 3D coculture by directing cell proliferation pre‐folding, restricting expansion for controlled growth within the channel, and spatially and temporally promoting 3D multicellular dissemination post‐folding.

Nanostructured 316L Stainless Steel Stent Surfaces Improve Corrosion Resistance, and Enhance Endothelization and Hemocompatibility

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This study investigates the impact of nanostructured surface modification on corrosion resistance, HUVEC functions, and platelet interactions of 316L SS for cardiovascular stents. Nanostructured surfaces enhanced HUVEC proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis‐related gene expression while reducing platelet adhesion and hemolysis.

Challenges of Soft Tissue Integration Around Dental Implants and Strategies Based on Material Surface Modification

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Peri‐implant soft tissue integration (STI), weaker than natural teeth, raises peri‐implant disease risk. Gingival‐region material surface properties critically modulate soft‐tissue responses, driving surface modifications to enhance STI. This review provides an in‐depth analysis of the challenges of STI around dental implants, comprehensively reviews ...

Modulation of TGFβ-Induced PAI -1 Expression by Changes in Actin Polymerization in Human Mesangial Cells [PDF]

, 2006
Chronic renal diseases show increased deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM) in the glomerulus (glomerulosclerosis). Glomerulosclerosis is associated with activation of normally quiescent glomerular mesangial cells into myofibroblast-like cells.
