TIG3 tumor suppressor-dependent organelle redistribution and apoptosis in skin cancer cells. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 TIG3 is a tumor suppressor protein that limits keratinocyte survival during normal differentiation. It is also important in cancer, as TIG3 level is reduced in tumors and in skin cancer cell lines, suggesting that loss of expression may be required for ...

Neurotrophic extracellular matrix proteins promote neuronal and iPSC astrocyte progenitor cell- and nano-scale process extension for neural repair applications. [PDF]
J AnatThe 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.

Studies of intercellular invasion in vitro using rabbit peritoneal neutrophil granulocytes (PMNS). I. Role of contact inhibition of locomotion. [PDF]
, 1975 Intercellular invasion is the active migration of cells on one type into the interiors of tissues composed of cells of dissimilar cell types. Contact paralysis of locomotion is the cessation of forward extension of the pseudopods of a cell as a result of

Drak Is Required for Actomyosin Organization During Drosophila Cellularization
G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2016 The generation of force by actomyosin contraction is critical for a variety of cellular and developmental processes. Nonmuscle myosin II is the motor that drives actomyosin contraction, and its activity is largely regulated by phosphorylation of the ...

Sedimenting pairs of elastic microfilaments
Soft Matter, 2019 Two elastic microfilaments sedimenting in a viscous fluid often converge toward horizontal and parallel orientation. Later, stiffer fibers attract each other, moderately flexible separate at a fixed distance, very elastic separate to infinity.

Intermediate filament–membrane attachments function synergistically with actin-dependent contacts to regulate intercellular adhesive strength [PDF]
, 2002 By tethering intermediate filaments (IFs) to sites of intercellular adhesion, desmosomes facilitate formation of a supercellular scaffold that imparts mechanical strength to a tissue.

DBD in burst mode: solution for more efficient CO2 conversion? [PDF]
Plasma Sources Science and Technology, IOP Publishing, 2016, 25
(5), pp.055005, 2016 CO2 conversion into value-added products has gained significant interest over the few last years, as the greenhouse gas concentrations constantly increase due to anthropogenic activities. Here we report on experiments for CO2 conversion by means of a cold atmospheric plasma using a cylindrical flowing dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) reactor.
