Live cell imaging of meiosis in Arabidopsis thaliana
eLife, 2019 To follow the dynamics of meiosis in the model plant Arabidopsis, we have established a live cell imaging setup to observe male meiocytes. Our method is based on the concomitant visualization of microtubules (MTs) and a meiotic cohesin subunit that ...

Sensors, 2011 Installation of a Wireless and Powerless Sensing Node (WPSN) inside a spindle enables the direct transmission of monitoring signals through a metal case of a certain thickness instead of the traditional method of using connecting cables.

NuMA recruits dynein activity to microtubule minus-ends at mitosis
eLife, 2017 To build the spindle at mitosis, motors exert spatially regulated forces on microtubules. We know that dynein pulls on mammalian spindle microtubule minus-ends, and this localized activity at ends is predicted to allow dynein to cluster microtubules into

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 Completion of the first meiosis is an essential prerequisite for producing a functionally normal egg for fertilization and embryogenesis, but the precise mechanisms governing oocyte meiotic progression remains largely unclear.

Excess TPX2 Interferes with Microtubule Disassembly and Nuclei Reformation at Mitotic Exit
Cells, 2020 The microtubule-associated protein TPX2 is a key mitotic regulator that contributes through distinct pathways to spindle assembly. A well-characterised function of TPX2 is the activation, stabilisation and spindle localisation of the Aurora-A kinase ...

BMC Genetics, 2011 Background Metaphase cells have short spindles for efficient bi-orientation of chromosomes. The cohesin proteins hold sister chromatids together, creating Sister Chromatid Cohesion (SCC) that helps in the maintenance of short spindle lengths in metaphase.

Structural Organization and Function of the Golgi Ribbon During Cell Division
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022 The Golgi complex has a central role in the secretory traffic. In vertebrate cells it is generally organized in polarized stacks of cisternae that are laterally connected by membranous tubules, forming a structure known as Golgi ribbon.

Exotic mitotic mechanisms [PDF]
Open Biology, 2012 The emergence of eukaryotes around two billion years ago provided new challenges for the chromosome segregation machineries: the physical separation of multiple large and linear chromosomes from the microtubule-organizing centres by the nuclear envelope.

Non-REM Sleep Characteristics Predict Early Cognitive Impairment in an Aging Population
Frontiers in Neurology, 2019 Objective: Recent research suggests that sleep disorders or changes in sleep stages or EEG waveform precede over time the onset of the clinical signs of pathological cognitive impairment (e.g., Alzheimer's disease).
