A Tether Is a Tether Is a Tether: Tethering at Membrane Contact Sites [PDF]
Developmental Cell, 2016 Membrane contact sites enable interorganelle communication by positioning organelles in close proximity using molecular "tethers." With a growing understanding of the importance of contact sites, the hunt for new contact sites and their tethers is in full swing. Determining just what is a tether has proven challenging.

Segmental range of motion of vertebral body tethering: an in-vitro analysis of single-tether, double-tether, and hybrid constructs [PDF]
Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and ResearchPurpose Vertebral Body Tethering (VBT) is emerging as a promising approach for treating Adolescents with Idiopathic Scoliosis. This study aims to address the limited experimental research on vertebral body tethering by examining its biomechanical effects

Endoplasmic Reticulum–Mitochondria Contact Sites—Emerging Intracellular Signaling Hubs
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 It has become apparent that our textbook illustration of singular isolated organelles is obsolete. In reality, organelles form complex cooperative networks involving various types of organelles. Light microscopic and ultrastructural studies have revealed

New England Journal of Medicine, 2015 In 1816, René Laennec was confronted with a young woman “laboring under general symptoms of diseased heart, and in whose case percussion and the application of the hand were of little avail on account of the great degree of fatness.”1 Physical examination required “immediate auscultation” — placement of the ear to the chest.

F1000Prime Reports, 2014 Membrane trafficking depends on transport vesicles and carriers docking and fusing with the target organelle for the delivery of cargo. Membrane tethers and small guanosine triphosphatases (GTPases) mediate the docking of transport vesicles/carriers to enhance the efficiency of the subsequent SNARE (soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment ...
