Cell proliferation, cell shape, and microtubule and cellulose microfibril organization of tobacco BY-2 cells are not altered by exposure to near weightlessness in space [PDF]

, 2009
The microtubule cytoskeleton and the cell wall both play key roles in plant cell growth and division, determining the plant’s final stature. At near weightlessness, tubulin polymerizes into microtubules in vitro, but these microtubules do not self ...

Identification of Actin Filament-Associated Proteins in Giardia lamblia

Microbiology Spectrum, 2021
The deep-branching protozoan parasite Giardia lamblia is the causative agent of the intestinal disease giardiasis. Consistent with its proposed evolutionary position, many pathways are minimalistic or divergent, including its actin cytoskeleton.

KCC2 interacts with the dendritic cytoskeleton to promote spine development.

, 2007
The neuron-specific K-Cl cotransporter, KCC2, induces a developmental shift to render GABAergic transmission from depolarizing to hyperpolarizing.

Defective apoptotic cell contractility provokes sterile inflammation, leading to liver damage and tumour suppression

eLife, 2021
Apoptosis is characterized by profound morphological changes, but their physiological purpose is unknown. To characterize the role of apoptotic cell contraction, ROCK1 was rendered caspase non-cleavable (ROCK1nc) by mutating aspartate 1113, which ...

Phosphorylation of neurofilament subunit NF‐M is regulated by activation of NMDA receptors and modulates cytoskeleton stability and neuronal shape

, 2008
The cytoskeleton is essential for the structural organization of neurons and is influenced during development by excitatory stimuli such as activation of glutamate receptors.

Similarities and differences between the E5 oncoproteins of bovine papillomaviruses type 1 and type 4: Cytoskeleton, motility and invasiveness in E5-transformed bovine and mouse cells [PDF]

, 2006
Bovine papillomaviruses (BPVs) are oncogenic viruses. In cattle, BPV-1/2 is associated with urinary bladder cancer and BPV-4 with upper GI tract cancer. BPV E5 is a small hydrophobic protein localised in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and Golgi apparatus

Deregulated expression of cytoskeleton related genes in the spinal cord and sciatic nerve of presymptomatic SOD1G93A Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis mouse model

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2014
Early molecular events related to cytoskeleton are poorly described in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), especially in the Schwann cell (SC), which offers strong trophic support to motor neurons.

A Spatiotemporal Characterization Method for the Dynamic Cytoskeleton

The significant gap between quantitative and qualitative understanding of cytoskeletal function is a pressing problem; microscopy and labeling techniques have improved qualitative investigations of localized cytoskeleton behavior, whereas quantitative ...

Comprehensive contribution of filament thickness and crosslinker failure to the rheological property of F-actin cytoskeleton [PDF]

, 2015
Rheological property of F-actin cytoskeleton is significant to the restructuring of cytoskeleton under a variety of cell activities. This study numerically validates the rheological property of F-actin cytoskeleton is not only a result of kinetic energy ...

Hormones and the Cytoskeleton [PDF]

Nature, 1956
THE object of this communication is to present the hypothesis that hormones modify the ‘cytoskeleton’ of the cell. Though I have held this view for some time, and have discussed it with others, I have not advanced it formally, because until now it did not appear to be useful.
