Talin: Biochemistry and Cell Biology

Advances in Molecular and Cell Biology, 1990
Publisher Summary This chapter describes the biochemistry and cell biology of talin and discusses its possible functions at the interface between the actin cytoskeleton and the plasma membrane in regions where cells interact with the extracellular matrix (ECM).

Biochemistry and Biology of the Langerhans Cell

Hematology/Oncology Clinics of North America, 1987
Langerhans cells mainly present in the normal epidermis and are thought to be identical to the proliferating cells in the lesions of histiocytosis-X. The Langerhans cell is positive not only for ATPase, esterase, and acid phosphatase, but also for S-100 protein.

Ommochromes in invertebrates: biochemistry and cell biology

Biological Reviews, 2018
ABSTRACTOmmochromes are widely occurring coloured molecules of invertebrates, arising from tryptophan catabolism through the so‐called Tryptophan → Ommochrome pathway. They are mainly known to mediate compound eye vision, as well as reversible and irreversible colour patterning. Ommochromes might also be involved in cell homeostasis by detoxifying free

Retinal Biochemistry, Physiology and Cell Biology

2010
The vitreous, the vasculature of the retina, macular pigments, phototransduction, retinal pigment epithelium, Bruch's membrane and the extracellular matrix, all play an important role in the normal function of the retina as well as in diseases. Understanding the pathophysiology allows us to target treatment.

Cell Biology and Matrix Biochemistry of Chondromyxoid Fibroma

American Journal of Clinical Pathology, 2001
We studied matrix composition and gene expression pattern in chondromyxoid fibromas on the protein and the messenger RNA levels. We could clearly identify focal chondrocytic differentiation within chondromyxoid fibroma by the expression and deposition of type II collagen, which is a marker of chondrocytic cell differentiation. We also were able to show

Biochemistry and cell biology of mammalian scavenger receptors

Atherosclerosis, 2005
Scavenger receptors are integral membrane proteins that bind a wide variety of ligands including modified or oxidised low-density lipoproteins, apoptotic cells and pathogens. Modified low-density lipoprotein accumulation is thought to be an early event in vascular disease and thus scavenger receptor function is critical in this context.

Matrix biochemistry and cell biology of dedifferentiated chondrosarcomas

Pathology International, 2010
Dedifferentiated chondrosarcoma is an uncommon mesenchymal neoplasm comprised of two different components, low‐grade conventional chondrosarcoma and high‐grade non‐cartilaginous sarcoma. In order to gain better insight into the biology of this tumor, we investigated a large series of dedifferentiated chondrosarcomas by looking at the composition of the

Biology and Biochemistry of Metastatic Cells

1986
There have been remarkable and continuing advances in the techniques for the diagnosis and treatment of primary neoplasms; however, the growth of tumor cells in organs distant to the primary tumor remains responsible for most deaths from cancer. Conventional therapy may be effective when primary neoplasms are detected before metastasis has occurred ...

Cell Biology and Biochemistry

1993
For this session I propose the following outline in order to achieve a structured discussion: (1) Number of compounds in the secretion of the subcommissural organ (SCO). (2) Nature of the secretory products of the SCO. Glycoproteins: (a) molecular size; (b) type of glycosylation: O-linkage, N-linkage; proteoglycans; non-glycosylated proteins; peptides.

Biochemistry, cell biology and molecular biology of lipids ofSaccharomyces cerevisiae

Yeast, 1998
The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a powerful experimental system to study biochemical, cell biological and molecular biological aspects of lipid synthesis. Most but not all genes encoding enzymes involved in fatty acid, phospholipid, sterol or sphingolipid biosynthesis of this unicellular eukaryote have been cloned, and many gene products have been
