Regulation of polarised growth in fungi [PDF]
Polarised growth in fungi occurs through the delivery of secretory vesicles along tracks formed by cytoskeletal elements to specific sites on the cell surface where they dock with a multiprotein structure called the exocyst before fusing with the ...

Rac1 activation upon Wnt stimulation requires Rac1 and Vav2 binding to p120-catenin [PDF]
A role for Rac1 GTPase in canonical Wnt signalling has been recently demonstrated, being required for β-catenin translocation to the nucleus. In this article we have investigated the mechanism of Rac1 stimulation by Wnt. Up-regulation of Rac1activity by Wnt3a temporally correlates with enhanced p120-catenin binding to Rac1 and Vav2.

Pathogenesis of Age‐Related Hearing Loss and Therapeutic Strategies
ABSTRACT Age‐related hearing loss (ARHL) is a degenerative disorder of the auditory system, characterized by bilateral symmetrical sensorineural hearing loss that occurs with aging. As a highly prevalent age‐related condition worldwide, ARHL significantly impairs both the quality of life and mental health of the elderly.

ATRA mechanically reprograms pancreatic stellate cells to suppress matrix remodelling and inhibit cancer cell invasion [PDF]
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a highly aggressive malignancy with a dismal survival rate. Persistent activation of pancreatic stellate cells (PSCs) can perturb the biomechanical homoeostasis of the tumour microenvironment to favour cancer ...
