Endocytic recycling and vesicular transport systems mediate transcytosis of Leptospira interrogans across cell monolayer. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Many bacterial pathogens can cause septicemia and spread from the bloodstream into internal organs. During leptospirosis, individuals are infected by contact with Leptospira-containing animal urine-contaminated water.

Deformability of Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells Is Dependent on Vimentin Intermediate Filaments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are being studied extensively due to their potential as a therapeutic cell source for many load-bearing tissues. Compression of tissues and the subsequent deformation of cells are just one type physical strain MSCs will need

Down-regulation of myopodin expression reduces invasion and motility of PC-3 prostate cancer cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Enhanced motility of cancer cells by remodelling of the actin cytoskeleton is crucial in the process of cancer cell invasion and metastasis. Although several studies propose a tumor suppressor role for the actin bundling protein myopodin, it was also ...

Acoustically Responsive Nanofibrous Scaffolds with 3D Hierarchy for Tympanic Membrane Regeneration

open access: yesSmall Structures, EarlyView.
This study investigates the influence of molecular, hierarchical, and acoustical stimulation on biofabricated tympanic membrane (TM) scaffolds within a custom‐built bioreactor mimicking the native tissue niche. It demonstrates that synergistically integrated bioactive agents, 3D hierarchical patterns, and sound waves promote the formation of an aligned

SILENCING THE NUCLEOCYTOPLASMIC O-GLCNAC TRANSFERASE REDUCES PROLIFERATION, ADHESION AND MIGRATION OF CANCER AND FETAL HUMAN COLON CELL LINES

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2016
The post-translational modification of proteins by O-linked β-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) is regulated by a unique couple of enzymes. O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) transfers the GlcNAc residue from UDP-GlcNAc, the final product of the hexosamine ...

Engineered EVs‐Mediated miR‐222 Targeting PTEN/FN1 Axis Reverses Anthracycline Resistance in HER2‐Negative Breast Cancer

open access: yesCancer Science, EarlyView.
We revealed the pivotal role of EVs‐mediated miR‐222 inhibition in modulating adriamycin resistance through post‐transcriptional regulation. Through the systematic implementation of Engineered EVs containing targeted miRNA mimics and inhibitors, we successfully delineated the specific contribution of EVs‐derived miR‐222 to drug resistance phenotypes in

Mechanotransduction Mediated by PDLIM5: The Critical Role of Serpin E2/Integrin β3‐Cytoskeleton‐Nucleoskeleton Axis in Mechanical Osteogenic Programming

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Large segmental bone defects can result in non‐union of fractures and present a formidable challenge in clinical management. This study aims to investigate the role of mechanical stimulation in regulating osteogenic differentiation of stem cells via the mechanosensitive protein PDLIM5, thereby promoting bone regeneration and repair.

Hsp27 anti-sense oligonucleotides sensitize the microtubular cytoskeleton of Chinese hamster ovary cells grown at low pH to 42 degrees C-induced reorganization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells maintained in vitro at pH 6.7 were used to model cells in the acidic environment of tumours. CHO cells grown at pH 6.7 develop thermotolerance during 42 degrees C heating at pH 6.7 and their cytoskeletal systems are ...
