Engineering cell–cell signaling [PDF]
Juxtacrine cell-cell signaling mediated by the direct interaction of adjoining mammalian cells is arguably the mode of cell communication that is most recalcitrant to engineering. Overcoming this challenge is crucial for progress in biomedical applications, such as tissue engineering, regenerative medicine, immune system engineering and therapeutic ...

Androgen receptor (AR) signaling is regulated by multiple post-translational modifications. Here, the authors identify the writer and reader enzymes for AR ADP-ribosylation and show how they modulate AR signaling output in prostate cancer cells.

Pan-cancer predictions of transcription factors mediating aberrant DNA methylation
Background Aberrant DNA methylation is a hallmark of cancer cells. However, the mechanisms underlying changes in DNA methylation remain elusive. Transcription factors initially thought to be repressed from binding by DNA methylation, have recently ...

This review explores advances in our understanding of dynamicism in cellular signaling. Areas highlighted include the role of stochasticity in producing diversity in analogous signaling circumstances; population desynchronization's effect in masking newly appreciated repetitive bursts in protein phosphorylation and messenger RNA production; double ...

In multicellular organisms, cell death is a critical and active process that maintains tissue homeostasis and eliminates potentially harmful cells. There are three major types of morphologically distinct cell death: apoptosis (type I cell death), autophagic cell death (type II), and necrosis (type III).

This chapter explains that cells communicate with one another using chemical or electrical signals that activate complex signalling pathways. It describes the cells of animals and plants which communicate using extracellular messengers or ligands, noting that local communication occurs by secreting and receiving local-acting extracellular messengers ...

Source, co-occurrence, and prognostic value of PTEN mutations or loss in colorectal cancer
Somatic PTEN mutations are common and have driver function in some cancer types. However, in colorectal cancers (CRCs), somatic PTEN-inactivating mutations occur at a low frequency (~8–9%), and whether these mutations are actively selected and promote ...

Cell receptors and cell signalling [PDF]
All cells in a multicellular organism are constantly exposed to a variety of extracellular signals that they need to interpret and translate into an appropriate response to their environment. These signals can be soluble factors generated locally (for example, synaptic transmission) or distantly (for example, hormones and growth factors), ligands on ...

Molecular and Cellular Mechanisms of Vascular Development in Zebrafish
The establishment of a functional cardiovascular system is crucial for the development of all vertebrates. Defects in the development of the cardiovascular system lead to cardiovascular diseases, which are among the top 10 causes of death worldwide ...

HIV-1 Activates T Cell Signaling Independently of Antigen to Drive Viral Spread [PDF]
open access articleHIV-1 spreads between CD4 T cells most efficiently through virus-induced cell-cell contacts. To test whether this process potentiates viral spread by activating signaling pathways, we developed an approach to analyze the ...
