On the dynamics of the microfilament system in HeLa cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 1982
We measured the pools of unpolymerized and filamentous actin in homogenates of HeLa cells made in several different lysis buffers, as well as after treatment of cells with a variety of chemicals or trypsin, and after adenovirus (type 2) infection.

Clinically acceptable colchicine concentrations have potential for the palliative treatment of human cholangiocarcinoma

open access: yesKaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, 2015
Microtubules are an ideal target for anticancer drugs because of their essential role in mitosis. Colchicine is a microtubule destabilizer. Whether the clinically acceptable colchicine concentrations had anticancer effects on human cholangiocarcinoma ...

Exploring the Origin of Differential Binding Affinities of Human Tubulin Isotypes αβII, αβIII and αβIV for DAMA-Colchicine Using Homology Modelling, Molecular Docking and Molecular Dynamics Simulations. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Tubulin isotypes are found to play an important role in regulating microtubule dynamics. The isotype composition is also thought to contribute in the development of drug resistance as tubulin isotypes show differential binding affinities for various anti-

Neutrophil and lymphocyte responses to oral Streptococcus in Adamantiades-Behcet's disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Immune reactions against microorganisms play an important pathogenic role in Adamantiades-Behçet’s disease (ABD). We had previously obtained Streptococcus sanguinis (strain BD113-20) isolated from the oral cavity of patients with ABD.

Fusion of secretory vesicles isolated from rat liver [PDF]

open access: yes, 1978
Secretory vesicles isolated from rat liver were found to fuse after exposure to Ca2+. Vescle fusion is characterized by the occurrence of twinned vesicles with a continuous cleavage plane between two vesicles in freeze-fracture electron microscopy.
