Mechanical properties of polycaprolactone microfilaments for muscular tissue engineering

open access: yesTecnología en Marcha, 2023
Polymeric scaffolds can be fabricated as microfilaments to replicate the mechanical characteristics and biological configuration of skeletal muscles and tendons. The microfilaments used in this research were fabricated from polycaprolactone (PCL) pellets

The chromosomal passenger protein birc5b organizes microfilaments and germ plasm in the zebrafish embryo. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2013
Microtubule-microfilament interactions are important for cytokinesis and subcellular localization of proteins and mRNAs. In the early zebrafish embryo, astral microtubule-microfilament interactions also facilitate a stereotypic segregation pattern of ...

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...

Signaling via ITGB1/FAK and microfilament rearrangement mediates the internalization of Leptospira interrogans in mouse J774A.1 macrophages [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Biological Sciences, 2015
Leptospirosis caused by pathogenic Leptospira species is a worldwide zoonotic 2 infectious disease, but the mechanisms of leptospiral internalization remain poorly understood.

Statoliths and microfilaments in plant cells [PDF]

open access: yesPlanta, 1989
Microfilaments have been demonstrated in rhizoids of Chara fragilis Desvaux by labelling of actin with rhodamine-conjugated phalloidin. Each rhizoid contains thick microfilament-bundles arranged longitudinally in the basal region. In the subapical and apical regions, much thinner bundles exist which contact the statoliths and encircle them in the form ...

Comparative two-dimensional gel analysis and microsequencing identifies gelsolin as one of the most prominent downregulated markers of transformed human fibroblast and epithelial cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
A systematic comparison of the protein synthesis patterns of cultured normal and transformed human fibroblasts and epithelial cells, using two-dimensional gel protein analysis combined with computerized imaging and data acquisition, identified a 90-kD ...

A Microfilament-Eruption Mechanism for Solar Spicules [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal (Letters) 2016, 828, L9, 2016
Recent investigations indicate that solar coronal jets result from eruptions of small-scale chromospheric filaments, called minifilaments; that is, the jets are produced by scaled-down versions of typical-sized filament eruptions. We consider whether solar spicules might in turn be scaled-down versions of coronal jets, being driven by eruptions of ...
