Proteomic Profiling of Pre- and Post-Surgery Saliva of Glioblastoma Patients: A Pilot Investigation. [PDF]
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is an extremely aggressive brain tumor characterized by a high infiltration capability and recurrence rate. Early diagnosis is crucial to improve the prognosis and to personalize the therapeutic approach.

By using a genetically modified mouse model and viral tracing approaches, we mapped both the anterograde and the retrograde projections of a subpopulation of neurons in the anterior paraventricular thalamic nucleus, molecularly defined by the expression of glucokinase (GckaPVT).

A gene network of uterine luminal epithelium organizes mouse blastocyst implantation
Abstract Purpose The receptive endometrium is critical for blastocyst implantation. In mice, after blastocysts enter the uterine cavities on day 4 of pregnancy (day 1 = vaginal plug), blastocyst attachment is completed within 24 h, accompanied by dynamic interactions between the uterine luminal epithelium and the blastocysts.

Tropomyosin-binding properties modulate competition between tropomodulin isoforms [PDF]
The formation and fine-tuning of cytoskeleton in cells are governed by proteins that influence actin filament dynamics. Tropomodulin (Tmod) regulates the length of actin filaments by capping the pointed ends in a tropomyosin (TM)-dependent manner. Tmod1,

Cytoplasmic γ-actin and tropomodulin isoforms link to the sarcoplasmic reticulum in skeletal muscle fibers [PDF]
The sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) serves as the Ca2+ reservoir for muscle contraction. Tropomodulins (Tmods) cap filamentous actin (F-actin) pointed ends, bind tropomyosins (Tms), and regulate F-actin organization. In this paper, we use a genetic targeting

Tropomodulins Control the Balance between Protrusive and Contractile Structures by Stabilizing Actin-Tropomyosin Filaments [PDF]
Eukaryotic cells have diverse protrusive and contractile actin filament structures, which compete with one another for a limited pool of actin monomers.

Tropomodulin 1-null mice have a mild spherocytic elliptocytosis with appearance of tropomodulin 3 in red blood cells and disruption of the membrane skeleton. [PDF]
The short actin filaments in the red blood cell (RBC) membrane skeleton are capped at their pointed ends by tropomodulin 1 (Tmod1) and coated with tropomyosin (TM) along their length.

Alteration of Tropomyosin-binding Properties of Tropomodulin-1 Affects Its Capping Ability and Localization in Skeletal Myocytes [PDF]
Tropomodulin (Tmod) is an actin-capping protein that binds to the two tropomyosins (TM) at the pointed end of the actin filament to prevent further actin polymerization and depolymerization.
