Cell shape sensing licenses dendritic cells for homeostatic migration to lymph nodes. [PDF]

Nat Immunol
Immune cells experience large cell shape changes during environmental patrolling because of the physical constraints that they encounter while migrating through tissues.

Localization and Dynamics of the Cell Shape-Determining Csd2 Protein Complex in H. pylori [PDF]

Cells
Approximately half of the world population is infected with the human pathogen Helicobacter pylori, which causes gastric inflammation, chronic gastritis, or peptide ulceration. A significant factor in the colonization of the upper digestive system is the

Large-scale analysis and computer modeling reveal hidden regularities behind variability of cell division patterns in Arabidopsis thaliana embryogenesis

eLife, 2022
Noise plays a major role in cellular processes and in the development of tissues and organs. Several studies have examined the origin, the integration or the accommodation of noise in gene expression, cell growth and elaboration of organ shape.

Single Cell Center of Mass for the Analysis of BMP Receptor Heterodimers Distributions

Journal of Imaging, 2021
At the plasma membrane, transmembrane receptors are at the interface between cells and their environment. They allow sensing and transduction of chemical and mechanical extracellular signals.

Effects of Low and High Aneurysmal Wall Shear Stress on Endothelial Cell Behavior: Differences and Similarities

Frontiers in Physiology, 2021
Background: Intracranial aneurysms (IAs) result from abnormal enlargement of the arterial lumen. IAs are mostly quiescent and asymptomatic, but their rupture leads to severe brain damage or death. As the evolution of IAs is hard to predict and intricates

Antibiotic Resistance via Bacterial Cell Shape-Shifting

bioRxiv, 2021
Bacteria have evolved to develop multiple strategies for antibiotic resistance by effectively reducing intracellular antibiotic concentrations or antibiotic binding affinities, but the role of cell morphology in antibiotic resistance remains poorly ...

Integrated analysis of cell shape and movement in moving frame

Biology Open, 2021
The cell's movement and morphological change are two interrelated cellular processes. An integrated analysis is needed to explore the relationship between them. However, it has been challenging to investigate them as a whole. The cell's trajectory can be

Overview of cell shape: cytoskeletons shape bacterial cells [PDF]

Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2007
An evolving hypothesis is that bacterial cell shape is determined by cytoskeletal elements that localize peptidoglycan synthetic machineries. In most bacteria FtsZ assembles into the Z ring which recruits the machinery necessary for cytokinesis. Most rod shaped cells require MreB which assembles into cables that run between the poles of the cell and ...

Periodontal cell mechanotransduction [PDF]

Open Biology, 2018
The periodontium is a structurally and functionally complex tissue that facilitates the anchorage of teeth in jaws. The periodontium consists of various cell types including stem cells, fibroblasts and epithelial cells.
