alpha II-spectrin and beta II-spectrin do not affect TGF beta 1-induced myofibroblast differentiation [PDF]
, 2018 Mechanosensing of fibroblasts plays a key role in the development of fibrosis. So far, no effective treatments are available to treat this devastating disorder.

Septins in the Middle—Makers and Breakers of Membrane Contact Sites
Journal of Neurochemistry, Volume 170, Issue 6, June 2026.Septins are a family of GTP‐binding proteins that assemble into heteromeric oligomers and polymers, associating with specific membrane domains and organelles according to their subunit composition. Growing evidence places septins at membrane contact sites (MCS) — key hubs for intracellular communication that mediate exchange of ions, lipids, and ...

, 1994 Using isoform and subunit specific antibodies we have determined the presence, localization, and beta spectrin associations of alpha erythroid spectrin, alpha SpI sigma*, as well as alpha non-erythroid spectrin, alpha SpII sigma 1, in mouse brain ...

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 11, June 2026.ABSTRACT Epigenetic modifications to DNA are proposed to underpin plastic responses to environmental change, and the manner in which DNA methylation contributes to plasticity likely differs among tissues. However, few studies have investigated tissue‐specific DNA methylation responses to ecologically relevant environmental stressors in natural settings.

Electron microscopy of actin-spectrin ladders.
, 2015 A. Transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of negatively-stained actin and spectrin illustrating “ladders”, with actin as the ‘rails’ and spectrin as the ‘rungs’. B.

Brain spectrin fragments and crosslinks actin filaments
, 1987 The effect of brain spectrin (fodrin) on actin has been studied using viscometry and fluorimetry. Brain spectrin resembles erythrocyte spectrin tetramer in its action on actin.

Super-Resolution Microscopy Reveals the Native Ultrastructure of the Erythrocyte Cytoskeleton
Cell Reports, 2018 Summary: The erythrocyte cytoskeleton is a textbook prototype for the submembrane cytoskeleton of metazoan cells. While early experiments suggest a triangular network of actin-based junctional complexes connected by ∼200-nm-long spectrin tetramers, later

, 1994 We studied a clinically manifest, dominantly transmitted elliptocytosis in an Italian family. We found a new spectrin variant, designated spectrin Napoli. Its beta-chain was truncated in its C-terminal region (apparent MW 216 kD).
