Computational modeling of spike generation in serotonergic neurons of the dorsal raphe nucleu [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We consider here a single-compartment model of these neurons which is capable of describing many of the known features of spike generation, particularly the slow rhythmic pacemaking activity often observed in these cells in a variety of species. Included

Structural conservation of Notch receptors and ligands

open access: yesSeminars in Cell & Developmental Biology, 1998
The Notch signalling pathway is an evolutionarily conserved cell-to-cell communication system utilized multiple times and in many tissues during development. The outcome of an interaction between Notch and its ligands is highly influenced by factors both extrinsic and intrinsic to Notch expressing cells, suggesting that Notch functions either directly ...

Notch receptor expression in human brain arteriovenous malformations

open access: yesJournal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, 2015
AbstractThe roles of the Notch pathway proteins in normal adult vascular physiology and the pathogenesis of brain arteriovenous malformations are not well‐understood. Notch 1 and 4 have been detected in human and mutant mice vascular malformations respectively.

The retromer complex safeguards against neural progenitor-derived tumorigenesis by regulating Notch receptor trafficking

open access: yeseLife, 2018
The correct establishment and maintenance of unidirectional Notch signaling are critical for the homeostasis of various stem cell lineages. However, the molecular mechanisms that prevent cell-autonomous ectopic Notch signaling activation and deleterious ...

Computational Screening of Tip and Stalk Cell Behavior Proposes a Role for Apelin Signaling in Sprout Progression

open access: yes, 2016
Angiogenesis involves the formation of new blood vessels by sprouting or splitting of existing blood vessels. During sprouting, a highly motile type of endothelial cell, called the tip cell, migrates from the blood vessels followed by stalk cells, an ...

NOTCH3 inactivation increases triple negative breast cancer sensitivity to gefitinib by promoting EGFR tyrosine dephosphorylation and its intracellular arrest. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Notch dysregulation has been implicated in numerous tumors, including triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), which is the breast cancer subtype with the worst clinical outcome.

Signal Processing during Developmental Multicellular Patterning [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Developing design strategies for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine is limited by our nascent understanding of how cell populations self-organize into multicellular structures on synthetic scaffolds. Mechanistic insights can be gleaned from the

Prognostic values of Notch receptors in breast cancer

open access: yesTumor Biology, 2015
Notch receptors are frequently deregulated in several human malignancies including human breast cancer. Activation of Notch has been reported to cause mammary carcinomas in mice. However, the prognostic value of individual Notch receptors in breast cancer (BC) patients remains elusive. In the current study, we investigated the prognostic value of Notch

Notch Signaling in Neuroendocrine Tumors

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2016
Carcinoids and neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are a heterogeneous group of tumors that arise from the neuroendocrine cells of the GI tract, endocrine pancreas and the respiratory system.

A model of Notch signalling control of angiogenesis: Evidence of a role for Notch ligand heterodimerization.

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology
The ubiquitous Notch receptor signalling network is essential for tissue growth and maintenance. Operationally, receptor activity is regulated by two principal, counterposed mechanisms: intercellular Notch transactivation triggered by interactions ...
