Intercellular communication in smooth muscle

open access: yesExperientia, 1992
The functioning of a group of cells as a tissue depends on intercellular communication; an example is the spread of action potentials through intestinal tissue resulting in synchronized contraction. Recent evidence for cell heterogeneity within smooth muscle tissues has renewed research into cell coupling.

NEW TARGET MICROVESICLES AND EXOSOMES IN CANCER

open access: yesİstanbul Tıp Fakültesi Dergisi, 2021
In recent years, a new mechanism for intercellular communication has been put forward which involves the intercellular transfer of extracellular vesicles. Most cancer cells release potentially functional biomolecules loaded in extracellular vesicles (EVs)

Natural killer (NK) cell-derived extracellular-vesicle shuttled microRNAs control T cell responses

open access: yeseLife, 2022
Natural killer (NK) cells recognize and kill target cells undergoing different types of stress. NK cells are also capable of modulating immune responses. In particular, they regulate T cell functions.

Drosophila free-running rhythms require intercellular communication. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2003
Robust self-sustained oscillations are a ubiquitous characteristic of circadian rhythms. These include Drosophila locomotor activity rhythms, which persist for weeks in constant darkness (DD).

Deciphering the Intercellular Communication Network of Peripartum Decidua that Orchestrates Delivery

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Intercellular communication in the decidua plays important roles in relaying information between the maternal and fetal systems in the maintenance of pregnancy and the transition to labor.

Dynamic changes in connexin expression correlate with key events in the wound healing process. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Wound healing is a complex process requiring communication for the precise co-ordination of different cell types. The role of extracellular communication through growth factors in the wound healing process has been extensively documented, but the role of

Gap-junctional coupling between neutrophils and endothelial cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Communication between leukocytes and endothelial cells is crucial for inflammatory reactions. Paracrine cross-talk and outside-in signaling (via adhesion molecules) have been characterized as communication pathways to date.

Intercellular communication and social behaviors in mycobacteria

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Cell-to-cell communication is a fundamental process of bacteria to exert communal behaviors. Sputum samples of patients with cystic fibrosis have often been observed with extensive mycobacterial genetic diversity.

Migrasomes, a new mode of intercellular communication

open access: yesCell Communication and Signaling, 2023
Migrasomes are newly discovered extracellular vesicles (EVs) that are formed in migrating cells and mediate intercellular communication. However, their size, biological generation, cargo packaging, transport, and effects on recipient cells by migrasomes ...

Folding for the Immune Synapse: CCT Chaperonin and the Cytoskeleton

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Lymphocytes rearrange their shape, membrane receptors and organelles during cognate contacts with antigen-presenting cells (APCs). Activation of T cells by APCs through pMHC-TCR/CD3 interaction (peptide-major histocompatibility complex-T cell receptor ...
