Cytochalasin B Modulates Nanomechanical Patterning and Fate in Human Adipose-Derived Stem Cells [PDF]
Cytoskeletal proteins provide architectural and signaling cues within cells. They are able to reorganize themselves in response to mechanical forces, converting the stimuli received into specific cellular responses. Thus, the cytoskeleton influences cell

Cytochalasins from endophytic Diaporthe sp. GDG-118
The plant Sophora tonkinensis, possessed a range of active compounds, was traditionally used in the medicine of Chinese minorities. Endophytic fungi were isolated from this plant, of which the fungus Diaporthe sp. GDG-118 was fermented and extracted with

Rho GTPases in mammalian spinal neural tube closure [PDF]
Neural tube closure is an important morphogenetic event that involves dramatic reshaping of both neural and non-neural tissues. Rho GTPases are key cytoskeletal regulators involved in cell motility and in several developmental processes, and are thus ...

Actin cytoskeleton: Setting the pace of cell movement [PDF]
Eukaryotic cells have many proteins that cap the barbed ends of actin filaments. Manipulation of their cellular concentration leads to changes in cell motility rates, actin dynamics and signal transduction ...

Plant pathogens as biocontrol agents of Cirsium arvense : an overestimated approach? [PDF]
Cirsium arvense is one of the worst weeds in agriculture. As herbicides are not very effective and not accepted by organic farming and special habitats, possible biocontrol agents have been investigated since many decades.

A chemical study on the EtOAc extract produced by Xylaria sp., an endophytic fungus from Piper aduncum, resulted in the isolation of a new cytochalasin 1, along with five known 19,20-epoxycytochalasin D (2), C (3), N (4), Q (5), and R (6).

Phorbol myristate acetate stimulates microtubule and 10-nm filament extension and lysosome redistribution in mouse macrophages [PDF]
Phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) stimulates cell spreading and fluid-phase pinocytosis in mouse peritoneal macrophages. Colchicine (10(-5) M) and cytochalasin B (10(-5) M) abolish PMA stimulated pinocytosis but have little effect on cellular spreading ...

Diagnostic fragmentation filtering for the discovery of new chaetoglobosins and cytochalasins.
RATIONALE Microbial natural products are often biosynthesized as classes of structurally related compounds that have similar tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) fragmentation patterns. Mining MS/MS datasets for precursor ions that share diagnostic or common
