There is a growing body of data about the cytopathic effect of bacterial arginine deiminase on human endothelial cells, but the precise mechanisms of endothelial dysfunction caused by the activity of the enzyme remain poorly understood.

Actin Dynamics at the T Cell Synapse as Revealed by Immune-Related Actinopathies
The actin cytoskeleton is composed of dynamic filament networks that build adaptable local architectures to sustain nearly all cellular activities in response to a myriad of stimuli. Although the function of numerous players that tune actin remodeling is

Bacterial toxins modifying the actin cytoskeleton [PDF]
Numerous bacterial toxins recognize the actin cytoskeleton as a target. The clostridial binary toxins (Iota and C2 families) ADP-ribosylate the actin monomers causing the dissociation of the actin filaments.

Exploring the role of cyclin D1 in the pathogenesis of multiple myeloma beyond cell cycle regulation
Cyclin D1 overexpression altered the cell adhesion pathway, while cyclin D2 upregulation had less impact on pathway enrichment analysis. Multiple myeloma (MM) patients with cyclin D1 overexpression showed reduced CD56 expression and increased circulating tumor cells (CTC) levels, suggesting that cyclin D1 may contribute to MM cell dissemination ...

Interactions between plant endomembrane systems and the actin cytoskeleton
Membrane trafficking, organelle movement and morphogenesis in plant cells are mainly controlled by the cytoskeleton. Not all proteins that regulate the actin cytoskeleton and membrane dynamics in animal systems have functional homologues in plants ...

A novel function of twins, B subunit of protein phosphatase 2A, in regulating actin polymerization. [PDF]
Actin is an important component of the cytoskeleton and its polymerization is delicately regulated by several kinases and phosphatases. Heterotrimeric protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) is a potent phosphatase that is crucial for cell proliferation, apoptosis,

Mythical origins of the actin cytoskeleton
The origin of the eukaryotic cell is one of the greatest mysteries in modern biology. Eukaryotic-wide specific biological processes arose in the lost ancestors of eukaryotes. These distinctive features, such as the actin cytoskeleton, define what it is to be a eukaryote.

Small extracellular vesicles are a promising source of diagnostic molecules. We conducted a comprehensive study, including transcriptome profiling and RT‐qPCR validation on large cohorts of samples. Diagnostic panels enabling sensitive detection of colorectal cancer and precancerous lesions were established. Some molecules were differentially expressed

Shielding of actin by the endoplasmic reticulum impacts nuclear positioning
The nucleus connects to the actin cytoskeleton for nuclear movement in migrating cells. Here, the authors show that the endoplasmic reticulum shields actin cables to generate asymmetric nucleo-cytoskeleton connections for nuclear positioning.

Mechanical and Systems Biology of Cancer [PDF]
Mechanics and biochemical signaling are both often deregulated in cancer, leading to cancer cell phenotypes that exhibit increased invasiveness, proliferation, and survival.
