Promising Prodiginins Biological Activities
Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Prodiginins are a large family of at least 34 pyrrolic compounds, including the well‐studied red pigment prodigiosin. Prodiginins are produced by several microorganisms displaying broad biological activities, including antimicrobial, antiviral, antiparasitic, antiproliferative, and immunosuppressive activities.

A comparison of experience-dependent locomotory behaviors and biogenic amine neurons in nematode relatives of Caenorhabditis elegans [PDF]
, 2010 Background: Survival of an animal depends on its ability to match its responses to environmental conditions. To generate an optimal behavioral output, the nervous system must process sensory information and generate a directed motor output in ...

The Caenorhabditis elegans Lifespan Machine [PDF]
Nature Methods, 2013 The measurement of lifespan pervades aging research. Because lifespan results from complex interactions between genetic, environmental and stochastic factors, it varies widely even among isogenic individuals. The actions of molecular mechanisms on lifespan are therefore visible only through their statistical effects on populations.

ChemBioChem, Accepted Article.Upon cell stimulation, mammalian cells activate various signaling proteins and lipids by recruiting their upstream regulators to the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane (PM), which in turn determines their cellular response. Therefore, artificially inducing protein translocation to the PM is an effective strategy for dissecting cell signaling networks

NECROTIC NEURODEGENERATION IN CAENORHABDITIS ELEGANS
TheScientificWorldJOURNAL, 2001 Necrosis plays a central role in neuronal injury associated with stroke and ischemia. Unlike apoptotic cell death, little is understood of molecular mechanisms of necrosis. The two distinct forms of cell death, necrosis and apoptosis, are easily distinguishable by morphological characteristics in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans.

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Myosin VI has been reported by others to localize in association with various regions of apical tubulobulbar complexes (TBCs) at sites of attachment between Sertoli cells and late spermatids in the mouse. Tubulobulbar complexes internalize “intact” intercellular junctions during sperm release and during spermatocyte translocation through the ...

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Cells have an intrinsic ability to rapidly respond to environmental change to regulate cell cycle progression and membrane organisation, thereby affecting cell growth and division. The actin cytoskeleton is a highly dynamic complex of proteins that can rapidly reorganise to change the growth pattern of a cell.

PLK4: Master Regulator of Centriole Duplication and Its Therapeutic Potential
Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Centrosomes catalyze the assembly of a microtubule‐based bipolar spindle, essential for the precise chromosome segregation during cell division. At the center of this process lies Polo‐Like Kinase 4 (PLK4), the master regulator that controls the duplication of the centriolar core to ensure the correct balance of two centrosomes per dividing ...
