Suppression of cell-spreading and phagocytic activity on nano-pillared surface: in vitro experiment using hemocytes of the colonial ascidian Botryllus schlosseri. [PDF]

, 2015
Nano-scale nipple array on the body surface has been described from various invertebrates including endoparasitic and mesoparasitic copepods, but the functions of the nipple array is not well understood.

A novel GRK2/HDAC6 interaction modulates cell spreading and motility [PDF]

, 2011
Cell motility and adhesion involves dynamic microtubule (MT) acetylation/deacetylation, a process regulated by enzymes as HDAC6, a major cytoplasmic α-tubulin deacetylase.

Sculpting the Future of Bone: The Evolution of Absorbable Materials in Orthopedics

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the current status of polymeric, ceramic, and metallic absorbable materials in orthopedic applications, and highlights several innovative strategies designed to enhance mechanical performance, control degradation, and promote bioactivity. We also discuss the progress and translational potential of absorbable materials in treating

Control of T lymphocyte morphology by the GTPase Rho

BMC Cell Biology, 2003
Background Rho family GTPase regulation of the actin cytoskeleton governs a variety of cell responses. In this report, we have analyzed the role of the GTPase Rho in maintenance of the T lymphocyte actin cytoskeleton.

Microtubule destabilization is a critical checkpoint of chemotaxis and transendothelial migration in melanoma cells but not in T cells

Cell Adhesion & Migration, 2021
Microtubules (MTs) control cell shape and intracellular cargo transport. The role of MT turnover in the migration of slow-moving cells through endothelial barriers remains unclear.

Electron microscopic changes in fibroblastic sarcoid in horses

Regulatory Mechanisms in Biosystems, 2023
The article presents the results of ultrastructural research on fibroblastic sarcoid, which is one of the most aggressive types of sarcoid in horses. A retrospective study on the prevalence of sarcoids in horses in Ukraine’s western regions was conducted

Osmotic Tension Asymmetry Drives Electrotactic Migration via PDLIM7‐Polarized Microfilament Coordination in Breast Cancer Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study establishes an electric field‐induced directional migration model using fluorescence tension probes to visualize microfilament forces and intracellular osmotic pressure dynamics in the electrotactic migration of breast cancer cells. This model delineates how electromechanical interactions among membrane potential, ion channels, OP, traction ...

Chemotaxis: a feedback-based computational model robustly predicts multiple aspects of real cell behaviour [PDF]

, 2011
The mechanism of eukaryotic chemotaxis remains unclear despite intensive study. The most frequently described mechanism acts through attractants causing actin polymerization, in turn leading to pseudopod formation and cell movement.

Rod‐Shaped Nanotherapeutics Alleviate Rheumatoid Arthritis by Precisely Disrupting Platelet‐Mediated Pathological Crosstalk via a Morphology‐Dependent Manner

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Owing to the margination effect, rod‐shaped nanoparticles exhibit markedly enhanced co‐localization with endothelial‐adherent platelets (PLTs) under dynamic blood flow. When internalized by PLTs, rod‐shaped PNR@Res inhibit FAK and PI3K/AKT signaling in a morphology‐dependent manner, thereby disrupting their pathological crosstalk with various ...
