SYTL2 promotes metastasis of prostate cancer cells by enhancing FSCN1-mediated pseudopodia formation and invasion [PDF]

Journal of Translational Medicine, 2023
Background Metastatic prostate cancer (mPCa) has a poor prognosis with limited treatment options. The high mobility of tumor cells is the key driving characteristic of metastasis. However, the mechanism is complex and far from clarified in PCa. Therefore,

Estrogen Receptor Beta Prevents Signet Ring Cell Gastric Carcinoma Progression in Young Patients by Inhibiting Pseudopodia Formation via the mTOR–Arpc1b/EVL Signaling Pathway [PDF]

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Signet ring cell gastric carcinoma (SRCGC) is a poorly differentiated malignancy, and can be highly dangerous in the progression stage. There is a higher male to female ratio among patients with signet ring cell carcinoma as compared to patients with non-

Intraductal pseudopodia in pleomorphic adenoma of parotid gland

Indian Journal of Pathology and Microbiology, 2019
Pleomorphic adenoma is the most common salivary gland tumor. Pseudopodia are finger-like projections extending beyond the tumor capsule, seen in pleomorphic adenoma.

Mechano-crosstalk between living and artificial cells [PDF]

Nature Communications
The mechanisms underlying the probing and response of cells to direct cell-presented mechanical signals generated in the local microenvironment are important controllers of diverse cell behaviours.

Chloride Channel Blockers Suppress Formation of Engulfment Pseudopodia in Microglial Cells [PDF]

Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2013
Background/Aims: Phagocytosis depends on the formation of engulfment pseudopodia surrounding the target. We tested in microglia, monocyte-derived cells in the brain, whether a swelling-activated Cl--current (ICl,swell), required for global cell volume ...

Cell Migration with Multiple Pseudopodia: Temporal and Spatial Sensing Models [PDF]

, 2013
Cell migration triggered by pseudopodia (or “false feet”) is the most used method of locomotion. A 3D finite element model of a cell migrating over a 2D substrate is proposed, with a particular focus on the mechanical aspects of the biological phenomenon.

Liquid metal amoeba with spontaneous pseudopodia formation and motion capability [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2017
The unique motion of amoeba with a deformable body has long been an intriguing issue in scientific fields ranging from physics, bionics to mechanics. So far, most of the currently available artificial machines are still hard to achieve the complicated ...

Cloning of nf-profilin and intercellular interaction with nf-actin in Naegleria fowleri cysts [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Naegleria fowleri is a free-living amoeba found in lakes, soil, hot springs, and poorly chlorinated swimming pools. It is pathogenic to humans, causing a rare and fatal brain infection known as primary amoebic meningoencephalitis (PAM).

Scanning electron microscopy analysis of synovial and adipose mesenchymal stem cells adhering to cartilage [PDF]

Regenerative Therapy
Introduction: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are increasingly used for intra-articular injections in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis. The aim of this study was to use scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to compare the morphological characteristics of ...

Biofunctionalized patterned platform as microarray biochip to supervise delivery and expression of pDNA nanolipoplexes in stem cells via mechanotransduction [PDF]

Journal of Nanobiotechnology
Biochips are widely applied to manipulate the geometrical morphology of stem cells in recent years. Patterned antenna-like pseudopodia are also probed to explore the influence of pseudopodia formation on gene delivery and expression on biochips. However,
