A Myosin V Inhibitor Based on Privileged Chemical Scaffolds [PDF]

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, 2010
Small molecules that perturb the function of their targets on fast-time scales can be powerful probes of dynamic cellular processes, such as intracellular transport.[1] In the past decade, inhibitors for motor proteins, ATPases that drive movements of cellular cargoes, have been reported.[2] These chemical inhibitors (with μM potency) have served as ...

Novel Antimalarial Inhibitors That Specifically Target the Invasion Motor Protein Myosin A in Malaria Parasites

open access: yesProceedings, 2019
Malaria remains a devastating disease with nearly half a million deaths per year. The WHO reports a stagnating number of new infections every year without a significant decline, as a result of insufficient access to antimalarials in endemic regions as ...

Polarized Distribution of Active Myosin II Regulates Directional Migration of Cultured Olfactory Ensheathing Cells

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Migration of olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs) is critical for development of olfactory system and essential for neural regeneration after OEC transplantation into nerve injury site.

Potentiality in Biology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We take the potentialities that are studied in the biological sciences (e.g., totipotency) to be an important subtype of biological dispositions. The goal of this paper is twofold: first, we want to provide a detailed understanding of what biological ...

Metabolic and cardiac adaptation to chronic pharmacologic blockade of facilitative glucose transport in murine dilated cardiomyopathy and myocardial ischemia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
GLUT transgenic and knockout mice have provided valuable insight into the role of facilitative glucose transporters (GLUTs) in cardiovascular and metabolic disease, but compensatory physiological changes can hinder interpretation of these models.

The ROCK inhibitor Fasudil prevents chronic restraint stress-induced depressive-like behaviors and dendritic spine loss in rat hippocampus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Indexación: Web of Science; Scopus.Background: Dendritic arbor simplification and dendritic spine loss in the hippocampus, a limbic structure implicated in mood disorders, are assumed to contribute to symptoms of depression.

Opportunities and Challenges for the Development of MRCK Kinases Inhibitors as Potential Cancer Chemotherapeutics

open access: yesCells, 2023
Cytoskeleton organization and dynamics are rapidly regulated by post-translational modifications of key target proteins. Acting downstream of the Cdc42 GTPase, the myotonic dystrophy-related Cdc42-binding kinases MRCKα, MRCKβ, and MRCKγ have recently ...

Long term in vitro expansion of epithelial stem cells enabled by pharmacological inhibition of PAK1-ROCK-Myosin II and TGF-β signaling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Summary: Despite substantial self-renewal capability in vivo, epithelial stem and progenitor cells located in various tissues expand for a few passages in vitro in feeder-free condition before they succumb to growth arrest.

A synthetic benzoxazine dimer derivative targets c‐Myc to inhibit colorectal cancer progression

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Benzoxazine dimer derivatives bind to the bHLH‐LZ region of c‐Myc, disrupting c‐Myc/MAX complexes, which are evaluated from SAR analysis. This increases ubiquitination and reduces cellular c‐Myc. Impairing DNA repair mechanisms is shown through proteomic analysis.

Chromosome movement in lysed mitotic cells is inhibited by vanadate. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1978
Mitotic PtK1 cells, lysed at anaphase into a carbowax 20 M Brij 58 solution, continue to move chromosomes toward the spindle poles and to move the spindle poles apart at 50% in vivo rates for 10 min.
