Molecular basis for a pore block of Tentonin 3 expressed in HEK293 cells by a conopeptide, NMB‐1
British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Background and Purpose Tentonin 3 (TTN3/TMEM150C) is a mechanosensitive ion channel that plays critical roles in mechanotransduction processes. TTN3 forms a tetramer with a predicted rectangular shape and a central pore. A conotoxin ρ‐TIA and its synthetic analog, noxious mechanosensation blocker 1 (NMB‐1), were initially developed to inhibit slowly ...

Effects of cyclic adenosine 3,5-monophosphate on photoreceptor disc shedding and retinomotor movement. Inhibition of rod shedding and stimulation of cone elongation. [PDF]
, 1982 As a test of the hypothesis that cyclic nucleotides play a role in the regulation of retinomotor movements and disc shedding in the photoreceptor-pigment epithelial complex, we have used an in vitro eyecup preparation that sustains both disc shedding and

Modulation of the extracellular matrix patterning of thrombospondins by actin dynamics and thrombospondin oligomer state [PDF]
, 2015 Thrombospondins (TSPs) are evolutionarily-conserved, secreted glycoproteins that interact with cell surfaces and extracellular matrix (ECM) and have complex roles in cell interactions.

Cytochalasins inhibit nuclei-induced actin polymerization by blocking filament elongation
Journal of Cell Biology, 1980 Polylysine was found to induce polymerization of muscle actin in a low ionic strength buffer containing 0.4 mM MgCl2. The rate of induced polymerization was dependent on the amount and on the molecular size of the polylysine added.

Reversal of MPPa‐PDT Resistance in Osteosarcoma by Targeting ROCK2‐Mediated Autophagy
Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.ROCK2 competes with MST1 to bind to the aa 28‐198 region of SAV1 and then regulates the Hippo pathway to affect autophagy, resulting in the resistance of OS to MPPa‐PDT. Targeted inhibition of ROCK2 by screening for J059‐0149 increases the sensitivity of osteosarcoma to MPPa‐PDT. ABSTRACT Osteosarcoma (OS) is a primary bone tumour that occurs mostly in

How promising are endophytic fungi as alternative sources of plant secondary metabolites? [PDF]
, 2009 In this article the authors discusses the use of endophytic fungi as substitute of plant secondary metabolites. It states that endophytic fungi exist internally in plants and enhance the plants' ability to tolerate abiotic and biotic stresses. Endophytic

Cytoplasmic Streaming in Plant Cells Emerges Naturally by Microfilament Self-Organization
, 2013 Many cells exhibit large-scale active circulation of their entire fluid contents, a process termed cytoplasmic streaming. This phenomenon is particularly prevalent in plant cells, often presenting strikingly regimented flow patterns.

Morphological Effects on Expression of Growth Differentiation Factor 15 (GDF15), a Marker of Metastasis [PDF]
, 2014 Cancer cells typically demonstrate altered morphology during the various stages of disease progression as well as metastasis. While much is known about how altered cell morphology in cancer is a result of genetic regulation, less is known about how ...
