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

PERK-dependent reciprocal crosstalk between ER and non-centrosomal microtubules coordinates ER architecture and cell shape. [PDF]
Cell RepThe architecture of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a key determinant of its function. Its dynamics are linked to those of the cytoskeleton, but our understanding of how this coordination occurs and what its functional relevance is, limited.

Compressive stress drives adhesion-dependent unjamming transitions in breast cancer cell migration
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022 Cellular unjamming is the collective fluidization of cell motion and has been linked to many biological processes, including development, wound repair, and tumor growth.

Structural Determinants and Their Role in Cyanobacterial Morphogenesis
Life, 2020 Cells have to erect and sustain an organized and dynamically adaptable structure for an efficient mode of operation that allows drastic morphological changes during cell growth and cell division.

Growth Phase Dependent Cell Shape of Haloarcula
Microorganisms, 2021 Several haloarchaea are reported to be pleomorphic, while others exhibit remarkable shapes, such as squares. Recently, Haloferax volcanii was found to alter its morphology during growth.

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1997 Cell death, a scheduled event during development and tissue turnover, or the ultimate consequence of toxic or pathologic insults seems to involve a relatively limited number of execution pathways. This reflects the evolution of an organized sequence of events perhaps converging onto final common pathways that are used to dispose of unwanted or injured ...

Mechano-chemical regulation of complex cell shape formation: Epidermal pavement cells—A case study
Quantitative Plant Biology, 2023 All plant cells are encased by walls, which provide structural support and control their morphology. How plant cells regulate the deposition of the wall to generate complex shapes is a topic of ongoing research.

Metabolism Shapes the Cell [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 2017 ABSTRACT More than 5 decades of work support the idea that cell envelope synthesis, including the inward growth of cell division, is tightly coordinated with DNA replication and protein synthesis through central metabolism. Remarkably, no unifying model exists to account for how these fundamentally disparate processes are functionally coupled.

Red cell shape in hypothyroidism. [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Pathology, 1969 Abstract Irregularly contracted red blood-cells are present in small numbers in the blood-films of about two-thirds of patients with untreated hypothyroidism, and this has been found to be of diagnostic value. The abnormal red cells slowly disappear with treatment of the subthyroid state.
