Evolutionary cell biology: Functional insight from “Endless forms most beautiful” [PDF]

Molecular Biology of the Cell, 2015
In animal and fungal model organisms, the complexities of cell biology have been analyzed in exquisite detail and much is known about how these organisms function at the cellular level.

The GRKs Reactome: Role in Cell Biology and Pathology

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021
G protein-coupled receptor kinases (GRKs) are protein kinases that function in concert with arrestins in the regulation of a diverse class of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) signaling.

Mechanosensitive Aspects of Cell Biology in Manual Scar Therapy for Deep Dermal Defects

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
Deep dermal defects can result from burns, necrotizing fasciitis and severe soft tissue trauma. Physiological scar restriction during wound healing becomes increasingly relevant in proportion to the affected area.

Dihydroceramide desaturase promotes the formation of intraluminal vesicles and inhibits autophagy to increase exosome production

iScience, 2021
Summary: Exosomes are important for cell–cell communication. Deficiencies in the human dihydroceramide desaturase gene, DEGS1, increase the dihydroceramide-to-ceramide ratio and cause hypomyelinating leukodystrophy. However, the disease mechanism remains

Early satellite cell communication creates a permissive environment for long-term muscle growth

iScience, 2021
Summary: Using in vivo muscle stem cell (satellite cell)-specific extracellular vesicle (EV) tracking, satellite cell depletion, in vitro cell culture, and single-cell RNA sequencing, we show satellite cells communicate with other cells in skeletal ...

Immune Function of Endothelial Cells: Evolutionary Aspects, Molecular Biology and Role in Atherogenesis

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022
Atherosclerosis is one of the key problems of modern medicine, which is due to the high prevalence of atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases and their significant share in the structure of morbidity and mortality in many countries. Atherogenesis is a complex chain of events that proceeds over many years in the vascular wall with the participation of ...

IL11 stimulates ERK/P90RSK to inhibit LKB1/AMPK and activate mTOR initiating a mesenchymal program in stromal, epithelial, and cancer cells

iScience, 2022
Summary: IL11 initiates fibroblast activation but also causes epithelial cell dysfunction. The mechanisms underlying these processes are not known. We report that IL11-stimulated ERK/P90RSK activity causes the phosphorylation of LKB1 at S325 and S428 ...

Identification of embryonic RNA granules that act as sites of mRNA translation after changing their physical properties

iScience, 2022
Summary: Fertilized eggs begin to translate mRNAs at appropriate times and placements to control development, but how the translation is regulated remains unclear.

Human Merkel cells – aspects of cell biology, distribution and functions

European Journal of Cell Biology, 2005
Human Merkel cells were first described by Friedrich S. Merkel in 1875 and named "Tastzellen" (touch cells) assuming a sensory touch function within the skin. Only ultrastructural research revealed their characteristics such as dense-core granules, plasma membrane spines and dendrites as well as a loosely arranged cytoskeleton.

Internalization-Dependent Free Fatty Acid Receptor 2 Signaling Is Essential for Propionate-Induced Anorectic Gut Hormone Release

iScience, 2020
Summary: The ability of propionate, a short-chain fatty acid produced from the fermentation of non-digestible carbohydrates in the colon, to stimulate the release of anorectic gut hormones, such as glucagon like peptide-1 (GLP-1), is an attractive ...
