srGAP2 deactivates RhoA to control the duration of thrombin-mediated endothelial permeability
The endothelial barrier is a tightly regulated gateway in the transport of material between circulation and the tissues. Inflammatory mediators such as thrombin are able to open paracellular spaces in the endothelial monolayer to allow the extravasation ...

A missense mutation in RHOA encoding p.Gly17 Val has been reported to occur frequently in angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL). Here, we describe a murine model which expresses the human RHOA mutant gene product in a T-cell specific manner and ...

RhoA-ROCK Signaling as a Therapeutic Target in Traumatic Brain Injury
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. TBIs, which range in severity from mild to severe, occur when a traumatic event, such as a fall, a traffic accident, or a blow, causes the brain to move rapidly within the

Destruction of RhoA CULtivates Actin [PDF]
Cullin 3, the core subunit of the CRL3 ubiquitin ligase family, is essential for development, but its substrates remain poorly defined. Here, Chen et al. (2009) report that CRL3(BACURD) targets the RhoA GTPase for degradation, thereby maintaining actin cytoskeleton integrity.

Integrin Regulation by RhoA in Thymocytes [PDF]
Abstract The guanine nucleotide-binding protein Rho has essential functions in T cell development and is important for the survival and proliferation of T cell progenitors in the thymus. To explore the mechanisms used by RhoA to control thymocyte biology, the role of this GTPase in the regulation of integrin-mediated cell adhesion was ...

Rac1 and RhoA: Networks, loops and bistability [PDF]
Cell migration requires a precise temporal and spatial coordination of several processes which allow the cell to efficiently move. The extension and retraction of membrane protrusion, as well as adhesion are controlled by the Rho-family small GTPases. Two members of the family, Rac1 and RhoA, can show opposite behaviors and spatial localisations, with ...

Rho GTPases and their downstream effectors in megakaryocyte biology
Megakaryocytes differentiate from hematopoietic stem cells in the bone marrow. The transition of megakaryocytes to platelets is a complex process. Thereby, megakaryocytes extend proplatelets into sinusoidal blood vessels, where the proplatelets undergo ...

RhoA Proteolysis Regulates the Actin Cytoskeleton in Response to Oxidative Stress. [PDF]
The small GTPase RhoA regulates the actin cytoskeleton to affect multiple cellular processes including endocytosis, migration and adhesion. RhoA activity is tightly regulated through several mechanisms including GDP/GTP cycling, phosphorylation ...
