Cell migration and antigen capture are antagonistic processes coupled by myosin II in dendritic cells

open access: yesNature Communications, 2015
The immune response relies on the migration of leukocytes and on their ability to stop in precise anatomical locations to fulfil their task. How leukocyte migration and function are coordinated is unknown.

Identification of PKN2 and MOB4 as Coordinators of Collective Cell Migration

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Through a genetic screen, PKN2 and MOB4 are identified as two proteins regulating the healing of an epithelial model wound. PKN2 promotes collective cell migration by maintaining the cohesion of cell monolayers from their lateral junctions, whereas MOB4 restrains collective cell migration and provides a lamellipodial cue for front‐rear polarity in ...

Bisphenol B Exposure Induces Miscarriage by Suppressing Migration/Invasion and Migrasome Formation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
BPB (Bisphenol B) exposure up‐regulates ER (estrogen receptor) levels, enhances its interactions with the lnc‐HZ04 promoter region, and thus promotes ER‐mediated lnc‐HZ04 transcription. Subsequently, lnc‐HZ04 suppresses TCF4 (transcription factor 4)‐mediated PKCA (protein kinase C alpha) transcription and subsequently suppresses migration/invasion and ...

Effect of the Partial Substitution of NaCl with L-Arg on the Gel Properties and Aggregation Behavior of Beef Myosin

open access: yesFoods
With 0.3 M KCl replacing NaCl, the effect of L-Arg on beef myosin’s gel, structure, and aggregation was investigated. L-Arg could enhance hydrogen and ionic bonds, increasing myosin solubility and reducing turbidity.

The effect of Arginine, Lysine and Histidine in the myosin secondary structure by circular dichroism and Raman spectroscopy

open access: yesCyTA - Journal of Food, 2019
Amino acids containing L-Arginine (Arg), L-Lysine (Lys) and L-Histidine (His) are recognized to increase the solubility of myosin at low ionic strength, but there is a difference in the researchers’ views on their effects on the secondary structure of ...

Possible origins of macroscopic left-right asymmetry in organisms

open access: yes, 2012
I consider the microscopic mechanisms by which a particular left-right (L/R) asymmetry is generated at the organism level from the microscopic handedness of cytoskeletal molecules.

TSHR‐Targeting Nucleic Acid Aptamer Treats Graves' Ophthalmopathy via Novel Allosteric Inhibition

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents YC3, a novel inhibitory TSHR‐targeting aptamer, as a promising therapeutic for Graves' ophthalmopathy (GO). YC3 suppresses pathological phenotypes in human orbital fibroblasts and improves outcomes in GO mice by binding to a previously unidentified allosteric site on TSHR, demonstrating the potential of aptamers in advancing ...

Three Hierarchies in Skeletal Muscle Fibre Classification Allotype, Isotype and Phenotype [PDF]

open access: yes
Immunocytochemical analyses using specific anti-myosin antibodies of mammalian muscle fibers during regeneration, development, and after denervation have revealed two distinct myogenic components determining fiber phenotype.

Smooth Muscle Myosin Heavy Chain Isoform Distribution in the Swine Stomach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
To evaluate the distribution of smooth muscle myosin heavy chain isoforms (SMB, with head insert), we examined frozen sections from the various regions of swine stomachs using isoform-specific antibodies.
