Quantification of Cell Movement Reveals Distinct Edge Motility Types During Cell Spreading [PDF]

, 2007
Actin-based motility is central to cellular processes such as migration, bacterial engulfment, and cancer metastasis, and requires precise spatial and temporal regulation of the cytoskeleton.

A cyclic GMP signalling module that regulates gliding motility in a malaria parasite [PDF]

, 2009
The ookinete is a motile stage in the malaria life cycle which forms in the mosquito blood meal from the zygote. Ookinetes use an acto-myosin motor to glide towards and penetrate the midgut wall to establish infection in the vector.

Mechanisms of Motility in Metastasizing Cells [PDF]

Molecular Cancer Research, 2010
Abstract Cell migration and invasion are critical parameters in the metastatic dissemination of cancer cells and the formation of metastasis, the major cause of death in cancer patients. Migratory cancer cells undergo dramatic molecular and cellular changes by remodeling their cell-cell and cell-matrix adhesion and their actin ...

A Bibliometric Analysis of Publications in Uremic Toxins From 1991 to 2024

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Uremic toxins are a growing area of research in nephrology, with significant implications in the progression and treatment of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and the management of end‐stage kidney disease (ESKD). This bibliometric analysis aims to evaluate the global research trends, key contributors, and the impact of publications in ...

Dendritic Cell Migration Is Tuned by Mechanical Stiffness of the Confining Space [PDF]

, 2021
The coordination of cell migration of immune cells is a critical aspect of the immune response to pathogens. Dendritic cells (DCs), the sentinels of the immune system, are exposed to complex tissue microenvironments with a wide range of stiffnesses ...

Myosin VI depletion delays neuromuscular junction maturation and exacerbates muscle performance

Scientific Reports
Unconventional myosin VI (MVI) is an ATP-dependent actin-binding molecular motor that participates in numerous cellular and tissue functions, including striated muscle physiology.

Structure of the Inhibited Smooth Muscle Myosin and Its Implications on the Regulation of Insect Striated Muscle Myosin

Life
Class II myosin (myosin-2) is an actin-based motor protein found in nearly all eukaryotes. One critical question is how the motor function of myosin-2 is regulated. Vertebrate myosin-2 comprises non-muscle myosin, smooth muscle myosin and striated muscle

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Proteomic analysis of the Plasmodium male gamete reveals the key role for glycolysis in flagellar motility. [PDF]

, 2014
BACKGROUND: Gametogenesis and fertilization play crucial roles in malaria transmission. While male gametes are thought to be amongst the simplest eukaryotic cells and are proven targets of transmission blocking immunity, little is known about their ...
