The centrosome cycle

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 2002
The centrosome is the major microtubule‐organizing center of animal cells. It influences cell shape and polarity and directs the formation of the bipolar mitotic spindle. Numerical and structural centrosome aberrations have been implicated in disease, notably cancer.

Co-translational protein targeting facilitates centrosomal recruitment of PCNT during centrosome maturation in vertebrates. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
As microtubule-organizing centers of animal cells, centrosomes guide the formation of the bipolar spindle that segregates chromosomes during mitosis.

The Mechanism of NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation and Its Roles in Chronic Rhinosinusitis

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT NLRP3 (NLR family pyrin domain containing 3) is one of the crucial receptors in pathogen recognition receptor (PRR) families which can recognize the pathogen‐associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and the damage‐associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), thus triggering innate immune response. After NLRP3 activation, it recruits the adaptor protein

The use of deidentified organ donor testes for research

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Our knowledge of testis development and function mainly comes from research using mammalian model organisms, primarily the mouse. However, there are integral differences between men and other mammalian species regarding cellular composition and expression profiles during fetal and post‐natal testis development and in the mature testis ...

HTLV-1 Tax: centrosome amplification and cancer

open access: yesRetrovirology, 2006
During interphase, each cell contains a single centrosome that acts as a microtubule organizing center for cellular functions in interphase and in mitosis.

Generation and Characterization of a Tissue-Specific Centrosome Indicator Mouse Line. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Centrosomes are major microtubule organizing centers (MTOCs) that play an important role in chromosome segregation during cell division. Centrosomes provide a stable anchor for microtubules, constituting the centers of the spindle poles in mitotic cells,

CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated Genome‐editing Reveals 10 Testis‐enriched Genes and One Non‐testis‐enriched Gene are Dispensable for Male Fecundity in Mice

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background More than 1000 genes have been identified as predominantly expressed in the human testis. Advances in gene editing technologies have enabled the rapid and efficient generation of genetically engineered mice. This approach facilitates the screening of genes essential for spermatogenesis by analyzing knockout mouse models.

Structural centrosome aberrations promote non-cell-autonomous invasiveness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Centrosomes are the main microtubule-organizing centers of animal cells. Although centrosome aberrations are common in tumors, their consequences remain subject to debate.

PLK4 is a potential therapeutic target in nonmelanoma skin cancers: Evidence from molecular and in vivo studies

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Exposure to solar ultraviolet radiation is the main etiologic driver of nonmelanoma skin cancers (NMSCs), including basal cell (BCC) and cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas (cSCC), which are the most prevalent types of cancers in the US. In this study, we demonstrate that the serine/threonine kinase Polo‐like kinase 4 (PLK4) is overexpressed in NMSCs ...

Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...
