The extracellular matrix plays a critical role in modulating cell behaviour in the central nervous system influencing neural cell morphology and growth. However, a better understanding of the impact of individual matrix proteins on both neurons and astrocytes is critical for advancing the development of matrix‐based neural repair strategies.

Investigating filopodia formation on fibronectin and cadherin substrates
Cancer metastasis involves cancer cells migrating from primary tumours to distant organs and tissues. Filopodia, slender finger-like protrusions, play a pivotal role in cell migration and interactions with the extracellular matrix (ECM) and neighboring ...

Sindbis virus (SINV) is an enveloped, mosquito-borne alphavirus. Here we generated and characterized a fluorescent protein-tagged (FP-tagged) SINV and found that the presence of the FP-tag (mCherry) affected glycoprotein transport to the plasma membrane ...

Abstract The genus Paulinella represents a rare, independent case of primary endosymbiosis, providing a unique system to study the early stages of organelle evolution. Here, we expand current understanding of primary plastid endosymbiosis through the discovery and characterization of two novel photosynthetic amoebae, Paulinella marae sp. nov.

Synaptogenesis Via Dendritic Filopodia in Developing Hippocampal Area CA1
To determine the role of dendritic filopodia in the genesis of excitatory synaptic contacts and dendritic spines in hippocampal area CA1, serial section electron microscopy and three-dimensional analysis of 16 volumes of neuropil from nine male rat pups,

Cholesterol Depletion Regulates Axonal Growth and Enhances Central and Peripheral Nerve Regeneration
Axonal growth during normal development and axonal regeneration rely on the action of many receptor signaling systems and complexes, most of them located in specialized raft membrane microdomains with a precise lipid composition.

Oviposition and care decrease the total haemocyte concentration. Oviposition and care affect haemocyte type proportions. Serratia marcescens challenge does not affect the immune cell parameters. Abstract Reproduction and immunity are essential biological processes that compete for resources and energy.

660‐nm photobiomodulation increased metabolic activity, modulated cell cycle distribution, and increased apparent surface coverage in dental stem cells cultured on polylactic acid films, with 4 J/cm2 producing the most consistent response and a greater G2/M fraction than 1 J/cm2.

Filopodia: The Cellular Quills of Hedgehog Signaling? [PDF]
Reporting in Nature, Sanders et al. (2013) implicate filopodial projections in Sonic hedgehog (Shh) patterning of the limb. Actin-based filopodia transport Shh from producing cells, while filopodia of responding cells bear Cdon and Boc: coreceptors in ...
