Intrinsic Resistance of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia Cells to NK Cell-Mediated Lysis Can Be Overcome In Vitro by Pharmacological Inhibition of Cdc42-Induced Actin Cytoskeleton Remodeling

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Natural killer (NK) cells are innate effector lymphocytes with strong antitumor effects against hematologic malignancies such as chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). However, NK cells fail to control CLL progression on the long term.

Mena/VASP and αII-Spectrin complexes regulate cytoplasmic actin networks in cardiomyocytes and protect from conduction abnormalities and dilated cardiomyopathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: In the heart, cytoplasmic actin networks are thought to have important roles in mechanical support, myofibrillogenesis, and ion channel function.

Oscillatory Dynamics of the Actin Cytoskeleton [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
The actin cytoskeleton is ubiquitously distributed among eukaryotic organisms and determines the shape and the movement of eukaryotic cells. In single migratory cells, rapid and localized actin polymerization often follows an external stimulus, engaging migration towards or away from the stimulus.

Organization and Regulation of the Actin Cytoskeleton in the Pollen Tube

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Proper organization of the actin cytoskeleton is crucial for pollen tube growth. However, the precise mechanisms by which the actin cytoskeleton regulates pollen tube growth remain to be further elucidated.

Septin 9 PB domains coordinate centrosome positioning and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Septin 9 polybasic domains couple phosphoinositide‐rich membrane binding to centrosome positioning, Golgi organization, and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity. Their loss disrupts this axis, causing centrosome mispositioning, Golgi fragmentation, reduced microtubule acetylation, and polarity inversion via upregulation of the ...

SILAC-based proteomic quantification of chemoattractant-induced cytoskeleton dynamics on a second to minute timescale [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Cytoskeletal dynamics during cell behaviours ranging from endocytosis and exocytosis to cell division and movement is controlled by a complex network of signalling pathways, the full details of which are as yet unresolved.

Three phosphatase families form a community: The phosphohydrolases that act upon inositol pyrophosphates

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.

Development of a Tool to Visualize F-actin and Organelle Contact Sites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
reservedThe actin cytoskeleton plays a critical role in not only cell shape and motility, but also organelle function. Growing evidence reveals the importance of actin dynamics at organelle membranes in mediating cellular processes and homeostasis.

NPFs-mediated actin cytoskeleton: a new viewpoint on autophagy regulation

open access: yesCell Communication and Signaling
Macroautophagy/autophagy is a lysosome-dependent catabolic process induced by various cellular stress conditions, maintaining the homeostasis of cells, tissues and organs.
