Tumor-associated Endo180 requires stromal-derived LOX to promote metastatic prostate cancer cell migration on human ECM surfaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The diverse composition and structure of extracellular matrix (ECM) interfaces encountered by tumor cells at secondary tissue sites can influence metastatic progression. Extensive in vitro and in vivo data has confirmed that metastasizing tumor cells can

Cdc42-driven podosome formation in endothelial cells

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Cell Biology, 2006
Ectopic expression of a constitutive active mutant of the GTPase Cdc42 (V12Cdc42) in vascular endothelial cells triggers the dissolution of stress fibres and focal adhesion contacts and causes the repolymerisation of actin into dots. Each punctate structure consists of an F-actin core surrounded by a vinculin ring, consistent with the definition of ...

Hypoxia and the cytoskeleton

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic outlining the activation of hypoxia‐sensitive pathways, the influence of hypoxia and associated pathways on the cytoskeleton, and the impact of these on disease progression. Abstract A highly‐regulated and dynamic cytoskeleton is vital for functional cellular physiology and the maintenance of homeostasis.

Cdc42 mobility and membrane flows regulate fission yeast cell shape and survival

open access: yesNature Communications
Polarized exocytosis induced by local Cdc42 GTPase activity results in membrane flows that deplete low-mobility membrane-associated proteins. A reaction-diffusion particle model comprising Cdc42 positive feedback activation, hydrolysis by GTPase ...

Impact of organic pollutants on phenotype and gene expression in human breast cancer cells

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 46, Issue 5, Page 1487-1505, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Human exposure to industrial chemical compounds is widespread and, although often beneficial, prolonged contact may contribute to disease development, including cancer. While many studies have shown organic pollutants (OP) are cytotoxic, few have explored how long‐term exposure alters cell phenotype.

Cell division cycle protein 42-driven activation of the MKK3/6-p38 signaling pathway participates in cardiac remodeling in mice

open access: yesCellular and Molecular Life Sciences
Cell division cycle protein 42 (Cdc42) is a member of the Rho GTPase subfamily that serves as a signal mediating factor in cell cycle division, cytoskeleton arrangement, cell polarization, membrane trafficking and signal transduction.

Profiling Ten RHO GTPases in Myeloid Malignancies Reveals Distinct Expression Patterns and Prognostic Associations

open access: yesCancer Medicine, Volume 15, Issue 4, April 2026.
Expression of RHO GTPases in myeloid malignancies. Gene expression analysis of ten RHO GTPases revealed RHOBTB2, RND2, and RHOQ as differently expressed in patients with MDS and/or AML. RHOBTB2 was identified as a promising prognostic indicator. BM, bone marrow. MDS, myelodysplastic neoplasm. AML, acute myeloid leukemia.
