Interaction Between Actin and Microtubules During Plant Development

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The dynamic interaction between actin filaments (AFs) and microtubules (MTs) plays a crucial role in regulating key developmental and physiological processes in plant cells, particularly in the formation of specialized cell types with distinct shapes and functions, such as pollen tubes, trichomes, and leaf epidermal cells.

Illusory motion and mislocalization of temporally offset target in apparent motion display

Frontiers in Psychology, 2013
When a visual target briefly appears in a display containing visual motion information, the perceived position of the target is mislocalized forward along its direction of motion.

VKORC1 ER mislocalization causes rare disease

Blood, 2014
In this issue of Blood , Czogalla et al identify that the rare heritable hemorrhaging disease, vitamin K–dependent clotting factor deficiency type 2 (VKCFD2), is caused by mislocalization of vitamin K epoxide reductase (VKORC1) in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER).[1][1] ![Figure][2 ...

Making Two out of One: Kinesin Motors Driving Plant Cell Division

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Kinesin superfamily of microtubule dependent motors is present in all eukaryotes. Not all of the subfamilies are represented in all kingdoms, and the ones that are do not always show conserved functions. Tight control of the cytoskeleton is essential for proper progression and completion of mitosis and cytokinesis, and key functions are ...

The Influence of Drosophila Spire and Myosin V During Mid‐Oogenesis Is Independent of Their Direct Interaction

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cooperativity between cytoskeletal proteins is crucial for spatiotemporal coordination in biological processes, like oogenesis. In mammalian and Drosophila oogenesis, proper assembly and function of actin networks require coordination between actin assembly factors Spire and formins, as well as actin‐associated proteins like myosins and Rab ...

The effect of pH alterations on TDP-43 in a cellular model of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

Biochemistry and Biophysics Reports
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is the most common neurodegenerative disease affecting motor neurons. The pathophysiology of ALS is not well understood but TDP-43 proteinopathy (aggregation and mislocalization) is one of the major phenomena described.

Mislocalization of the exitatory amino-acid transporters (EAATs) in human astrocytoma and non-astrocytoma cancer cells: effect of the cell confluence

Journal of Biomedical Science, 2012
Background Astrocytomas are cancers of the brain in which high levels of extracellular glutamate plays a critical role in tumor growth and resistance to conventional treatments.

Mitochondria and the Actin Cytoskeleton in Neurodegeneration

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mitochondrial dysfunction and cytoskeletal disorganization are widely recognized hallmarks of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), Huntington's disease (HD), and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

Fhod3 in zebrafish supports myofibril stability during growth of embryonic skeletal muscle

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Actin filament organization in cardiomyocytes critically depends on the formin Fhod3, but a role for Fhod3 in skeletal muscle development has not yet been described. Results We demonstrate here that in zebrafish mutated for one of two fhod3 paralog genes, fhod3a, skeletal muscle of the trunk appears normal through 2 days post ...

Pharmacological Inhibition of APT2 by Solasonine Promotes Ferroptosis Through Palmitoylation Modulation in Gallbladder Cancer

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of SS‐induced ferroptosis through targeting APT2‐mediated STAT3 palmitoylation in GBC cells. ABSTRACT Gallbladder cancer (GBC), the most prevalent and lethal biliary tract malignancy, lacks effective therapeutic strategies. Solasonine (SS), a bioactive steroidal alkaloid derived from Solanum nigrum L, exhibits antitumor activity ...
