The regulatory effect of Tau protein on polymerization of MCF7 microtubules in vitro
Biochemistry and Biophysics Reports, 2019 Growing evidence continues to point toward the critical role of beta tubulin isotypes in regulating some intracellular functions. Changes that were observed in the microtubules’ intrinsic dynamics, the way they interact with some chemotherapeutic agents,

Non-centrosomal MTs play a crucial role in organization of MT array in interphase fibroblasts
AIMS Genetics, 2018 Microtubules in interphase fibroblast-like cells are thought to be organized in a radial array growing from a centrosome-based microtubule-organizing center (MTOC) to the cell edges.

The Regulation of Trace Metal Elements in Cancer Ferroptosis
Advanced Biology, EarlyView.The induction of ferroptosis inhibits tumor growth, enhances anticancer efficacy, and overcomes drug resistance. Recent evidence shows nonferrous metal elements play a role in ferroptosis. This review focuses on how trace metals regulate ferroptosis processes like iron accumulation, lipid peroxidation, and antioxidant defense.

Acetylated alpha-tubulin in Trypanosoma cruzi: immunocytochemical localization
Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1993 We have used monoclonal antibodies specific for acetylated and non-acetylated alpha-tubulin to localize microtubules containing acetylated alpha-tubulin in all developmental forms of the life cycle of Trypanosoma cruzi.

Structural basis of protein condensation on microtubules underlying branching microtubule nucleation
Nature Communications, 2023 Targeting protein for Xklp2 (TPX2) is a key factor that stimulates branching microtubule nucleation during cell division. Upon binding to microtubules (MTs), TPX2 forms condensates via liquid-liquid phase separation, which facilitates recruitment of ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Eco‐friendly nanowave‐textured implants produced via femtosecond laser fabrication enhance bone regeneration by orchestrating a precise mechanotransduction cascade. This nanotopography directs mesenchymal stem cell alignment and cytoskeletal organization, triggering changes in nuclear shape and chromatin acetylation that prime cells for osteogenesis ...

Machine Learning Guided Design of Nerve‐On‐A‐Chip Platforms with Promoted Neurite Outgrowth
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Compared to labor‐intensive trial‐and‐error experimentation, a machine learning (ML)‐guided workflow, incorporating cell viability assays, data augmentation, ensemble modeling, and model interpretation, is developed to accelerate nerve‐on‐a‐chip optimization and uncover data‐driven design principles.
