Nuclei of Non-Muscle Cells Bind Centrosome Proteins upon Fusion with Differentiating Myoblasts [PDF]

, 2009
Background: In differentiating myoblasts, the microtubule network is reorganized from a centrosome-bound, radial array into parallel fibres, aligned along the long axis of the cell.

V-fusion: a convenient, nontoxic method for cell fusion

BioTechniques, 2010
Cell-to-cell fusion (cell fusion) is a fundamental biological process that also has been used as a versatile experimental tool to dissect a variety of cellular mechanisms, including the consequences of cell fusion itself, and to produce cells with ...

Filopodia powered by class x myosin promote fusion of mammalian myoblasts

eLife, 2021
Skeletal muscle fibers are multinucleated cellular giants formed by the fusion of mononuclear myoblasts. Several molecules involved in myoblast fusion have been discovered, and finger-like projections coincident with myoblast fusion have also been ...

Mate and fuse: how yeast cells do it [PDF]

Open Biology, 2013
Many cells are able to orient themselves in a non-uniform environment by responding to localized cues. This leads to a polarized cellular response, where the cell can either grow or move towards the cue source.

Differential cargo mobilisation within Weibel-Palade bodies after transient fusion with the plasma membrane. [PDF]

, 2014
Inflammatory chemokines can be selectively released from Weibel-Palade bodies (WPBs) during kiss-and-run exocytosis. Such selectivity may arise from molecular size filtering by the fusion pore, however differential intra-WPB cargo re-mobilisation ...

Analysis of the Leukemogenic Potential of the CALM/AF10 Fusion Gene in Patients, Transgenic Mice and Cell Culture Models [PDF]

, 2006
The t(10;11)(p13;q14) is a recurring translocation resulting in the fusion of the CALM and AF10 genes. The leukemogenic CALM/AF10 fusion genes codes for a 1595 amino acids protein.

Giant cells: multiple cells unite to survive

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
Multinucleated Giant Cells (MGCs) are specialized cells that develop from the fusion of multiple cells, and their presence is commonly observed in human cells during various infections. However, MGC formation is not restricted to infections alone but can

Ca²⁺ Signalling Differentially Regulates Germ-Tube Formation and Cell Fusion in Fusarium oxysporum

Journal of Fungi, 2022
Fusarium oxysporum is an important plant pathogen and an emerging opportunistic human pathogen. Germination of conidial spores and their fusion via conidial anastomosis tubes (CATs) are significant events during colony establishment in culture and on ...
