The maternal-effect gene cellular island encodes aurora B kinase and is essential for furrow formation in the early zebrafish embryo.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2009
Females homozygous for a mutation in cellular island (cei) produce embryos with defects in cytokinesis during early development. Analysis of the cytoskeletal events associated with furrow formation reveal that these defects include a general delay in ...

ASB7 Is a Novel Regulator of Cytoskeletal Organization During Oocyte Maturation

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
Ankyrin repeat and SOCS box (ASB) family members have a C-terminal SOCS box and an N-terminal ankyrin-related sequence of variable repeats. To date, the roles of ASB family members remain largely unknown.

An Organ‐on‐Chip Platform for Strain‐Controlled, Tissue‐Specific Compression of Cartilage and Mineralized Osteochondral Interface to Study Mechanical Overloading in Osteoarthritis

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A mechanically active OsteoChondral Unit (OCU)‐on‐Chip platform mimicking the OCU's functional anatomy and the strain gradient across the osteochondral interface is presented. Upon compartment‐specific hyperphysiological compression, the model replicates mechanisms observed in osteoarthritis (OA) progression, such as calcium crystal accumulation ...

Heat stress during male meiosis impairs cytoskeletal organization, spindle assembly and tapetum degeneration in wheat

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science
The significance of heat stress in agriculture is ever-increasing with the progress of global climate changes. Due to a negative effect on the yield of staple crops, including wheat, the impairment of plant reproductive development triggered by high ...

At the Pointy End of Mechanobiology: AFM for Transient Biomechanical Analysis

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Stem cell mechanosensitivity governs lineage commitment through mechanotransduction, but capturing these transient changes in living cells remains challenging. Advanced atomic force microscopy enables high‐resolution analysis of mechanical properties, real‐time protein distribution, and gene expression, offering fresh insights into cell‐environment ...

Role of AMPK Throughout Meiotic Maturation in the Mouse Oocyte: Evidence for Promotion of Polar Body Formation and Suppression of Premature Activation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This study was conducted to assess the role of AMPK in regulating meiosis in mouse oocytes from the germinal vesicle stage to metaphase II. Exposure of mouse cumulus cell-enclosed oocytes (CEO) and denuded oocytes (DO) during spontaneous maturation in ...
