Dermal Fibroblast Migration and Proliferation Upon Wounding or Lipopolysaccharide Exposure is Mediated by Stathmin

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
The dermal fibroblast is a crucial executor involved in wound healing, and lipopolysaccharide is a key factor in initiating the migration and proliferation of the dermal fibroblasts, followed by wound healing.

Microtubules in Plants [PDF]

open access: yesThe Arabidopsis Book, 2015
Microtubules (MTs) are highly conserved polar polymers that are key elements of the eukaryotic cytoskeleton and are essential for various cell functions. αβ-tubulin, a heterodimer containing one structural GTP and one hydrolysable and exchangeable GTP, is the building block of MTs and is formed by the sequential action of several molecular chaperones ...

Conserved mechanisms of microtubule-stimulated ADP release, ATP binding, and force generation in transport kinesins

open access: yeseLife, 2014
Kinesins are a superfamily of microtubule-based ATP-powered motors, important for multiple, essential cellular functions. How microtubule binding stimulates their ATPase and controls force generation is not understood.

Mitotic centromere-associated kinesin (MCAK) : a potential cancer drug target [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The inability to faithfully segregate chromosomes in mitosis results in chromosome instability, a hallmark of solid tumors. Disruption of microtubule dynamics contributes highly to mitotic chromosome instability.

Agrin promotes acetylcholine receptor clustering at the mammalian neuro-muscular junction by PI3K/GSK3ß²-mediated regulation of +TIPs and microtubule capture [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Neurotransmission an der neuromuskulären Endplatte von Säugetieren erfolgt durch Ausschüttung von Acetylcholin (ACh) aus motorischen Nerven in den synaptischen Spalt und verursacht letztendlich Muskelkontraktion im angesteuerten Muskel.

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

Multiple motors cooperate to establish and maintain acentrosomal spindle bipolarity in C. elegans oocyte meiosis

open access: yeseLife, 2022
While centrosomes organize spindle poles during mitosis, oocyte meiosis can occur in their absence. Spindles in human oocytes frequently fail to maintain bipolarity and consequently undergo chromosome segregation errors, making it important to understand

A molecular analysis of the microtubule associated protein MAP65-1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Microtubules (MTs) play important roles in various cellular processes including cell division, organelle movement and the determination of cellular morphology. The dynamics and organization of microtubules are regulated by microtubule associated proteins

Kinetochore alignment within the metaphase plate is regulated by centromere stiffness and microtubule depolymerases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
During mitosis in most eukaryotic cells, chromosomes align and form a metaphase plate halfway between the spindle poles, about which they exhibit oscillatory movement. These movements are accompanied by changes in the distance between sister kinetochores,

Microtubule self-repair.

open access: yes, 2021
International audienceThe stochastic switching between microtubule growth and shrinkage is a fascinating and unique process in the regulation of the cytoskeleton. To understand it, almost all attention has been focused on the microtubule ends.
