Visualization of Endothelial Actin Cytoskeleton in the Mouse Retina [PDF]
, 2012 Angiogenesis requires coordinated changes in cell shape of endothelial cells (ECs), orchestrated by the actin cytoskeleton. The mechanisms that regulate this rearrangement in vivo are poorly understood - largely because of the difficulty to visualize ...

The yeast actin cytoskeleton [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Reviews, 2014 The actin cytoskeleton is a complex network of dynamic polymers, which plays an important role in various fundamental cellular processes, including maintenance of cell shape, polarity, cell division, cell migration, endocytosis, vesicular trafficking, and mechanosensation. Precise spatiotemporal assembly and disassembly of actin structures is regulated

Role of actin cytoskeleton in the organization and function of ionotropic glutamate receptors
Current Research in Structural Biology, 2021 Neural networks with precise connection are compulsory for learning and memory. Various cellular events occur during the genesis of dendritic spines to their maturation, synapse formation, stabilization of the synapse, and proper signal transmission. The

Actin Remodeling Defects Leading to Autoinflammation and Immune Dysregulation
Frontiers in Immunology, 2021 A growing number of monogenic immune-mediated diseases have been related to genes involved in pathways of actin cytoskeleton remodeling. Increasing evidences associate cytoskeleton defects to autoinflammatory diseases and primary immunodeficiencies.

Actin cytoskeleton: Thinking globally, actin’ locally [PDF]
Current Biology, 2000 A class of proteins dubbed pipmodulins bind to and sequester the phospholipid PIP2 in the plasma membrane. Local release of PIP2 controls actin dynamics in specific subcellular regions and plays a critical role in regulating actin-based cell motility and morphogenesis.
