RhoA and Rac1 as Mechanotransduction Mediators in Colorectal Cancer

Advanced Biology, EarlyView.
Analysing RhoA and Rac1 protein levels in Colorectal cancer (CRC) samples under mechanical strain highlights their potential as diagnostic markers. Monitoring their activity could offer valuable insights into how cancer spreads, paving the way for new approaches to better understand and diagnose colorectal cancer.

EFFECT OF ARGININE DEIMINASE FROM STREPTOCOCCUS PYOGENES ON CYTOSKELETON STRUCTURE AND MIGRATION ACTIVITY OF HUMAN ENDOTHELIAL CELLS

Медицинская иммунология, 2017
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

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
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

Formins Determine the Functional Properties of Actin Filaments in Yeast [PDF]

, 2014
The actin cytoskeleton executes a broad range of essential functions within a living cell. The dynamic nature of the actin polymer is modulated to facilitate specific cellular processes at discrete locations by actin-binding proteins (ABPs), including ...

Bending over backwards: BAR proteins and the actin cytoskeleton in mammalian receptor-mediated endocytosis

European Journal of Cell Biology, 2022
The role of the actin cytoskeleton during receptor-mediated endocytosis (RME) has been well characterized in yeast for many years. Only more recently has the interplay between the actin cytoskeleton and RME been extensively explored in mammalian cells ...

Interactions between plant endomembrane systems and the actin cytoskeleton

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015
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 ...

Shielding of actin by the endoplasmic reticulum impacts nuclear positioning

Nature Communications, 2022
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.

Arabidopsis ADF5 Acts as a Downstream Target Gene of CBFs in Response to Low-Temperature Stress

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Low temperature is a major adverse environment that affects normal plant growth. Previous reports showed that the actin cytoskeleton plays an important role in the plant response to low-temperature stress, but the regulatory mechanism of the actin ...
