Targeting Cdc42 in cancer [PDF]
The Rho GTPases are a family of proteins that control fundamental cellular processes in response to extracellular stimuli and internal programs. Rho GTPases function as molecular switches in which the GTP-bound proteins are active and GDP-bound proteins are inactive.

Lipidation of small GTPase Cdc42 as regulator of its physiological and pathophysiological functions
The protein cell division cycle 42 (Cdc42) is a small GTPase of the Rho family regulating a plethora of physiological functions in a tissue, cell and subcellular-specific manner via participating in multiple signaling pathways.

Cdc42 is a small RhoGTPase regulating multiple functions in eukaryotic cells. The activity of Cdc42 is significantly elevated in several tissues of aged mice, while the Cdc42 gain‐of‐activity mouse model presents with a premature aging‐like phenotype and

Cdc42 controls secretory granules morphology in rodent salivary glands in vivo
We previously reported that the small GTPase Cdc42 negatively regulates endocytosis in the salivary gland of live mice. By using intravital subcellular microscopy, we showed that depletion of Cdc42 causes the mis-sorting of plasma membrane components ...

Granule Cell Dispersion in Human Temporal Lobe Epilepsy: Proteomics investigation of neurodevelopmental migratory pathways [PDF]
Granule cell dispersion (GCD) is a common pathological feature observed in the hippocampus of patients with Mesial Temporal Lobe Epilepsy (MTLE). Pathomechanisms underlying GCD remain to be elucidated, but one hypothesis proposes aberrant reactivation of

Gene targeting implicates Cdc42 GTPase in GPVI and non-GPVI mediated platelet filopodia formation, secretion and aggregation. [PDF]
Cdc42 and Rac1, members of the Rho family of small GTPases, play critical roles in actin cytoskeleton regulation. We have shown previously that Rac1 is involved in regulation of platelet secretion and aggregation.

PTEN controls glandular morphogenesis through a juxtamembrane β-Arrestin1/ARHGAP21 scaffolding complex [PDF]
PTEN controls three-dimensional (3D) glandular morphogenesis by coupling juxtamembrane signalling to mitotic spindle machinery. While molecular mechanisms remain unclear, PTEN interacts through its C2 membrane-binding domain with the scaffold protein β ...

Regulation of cell protrusions by small GTPases during fusion of the neural folds
Epithelial fusion is a crucial process in embryonic development, and its failure underlies several clinically important birth defects. For example, failure of neural fold fusion during neurulation leads to open neural tube defects including spina bifida.

Novel regulation of mitotic exit by the Cdc42 effectors Gic1 and Gic2 [PDF]
Copyright @ The Rockefeller University PressThe guanine nucleotide exchange factor Cdc24, the GTPase Cdc42, and the Cdc42 effectors Cla4 and Ste20, two p21-activated kinases, form a signal transduction cascade that promotes mitotic exit in yeast.
