Human erythrocytes: cytoskeleton and its origin
(Springer, 2020-05)
In the last few years, erythrocytes have emerged as the main determinant of blood rheology. In mammals, these cells are devoid of nuclei and are, therefore, unable to divide. Consequently, all circulating erythrocytes come ...
In vitro inhibition of incompatible pollen tubes in Nicotiana alata involves the uncoupling of the F-actin cytoskeleton and the endomembrane trafficking system
(Springer Wien, 2015-01)
In the S-RNase-based self-incompatibility system, subcellular events occurring in the apical region of incompatible pollen tubes during the pollen rejection process are poorly understood. F-actin dynamics and endomembrane ...
ARF6, PI3-kinase and host cell actin cytoskeleton in Toxoplasma gondii cell invasion
(Elsevier B.V., 2009-01-16)
Toxoplasma gondii infects a variety of different cell types in a range of different hosts. Host cell invasion by T. gondii occurs by active penetration of the host cell, a process previously described as independent of ...
Signal integration duringT lymphocyte activation and function: lessons from the Wiskott–Aldrich syndrome
(University of Washington, 2015)
Subpopulations of tau interact with microtubules and actin filaments in various cell types
(1995)
It has been demonstrated that microtubule‐associated proteins (MAPs) interact with tubulin in vitro and in vivo. However, there is no clear evidence on the possible roles of the interactions of MAPs in vivo with other ...
Sildenafil (Viagra®) prevents and restores LPS-induced inflammation in astrocytes
(2016-09-06)
Astrocytes are effectively involved in the pathophysiological processes in the central nervous system (CNS) and may contribute to or protect against development of inflammatory and degenerative diseases. Sildenafil is a ...
Differential Effects of G- and F-Actin on the Plasma Membrane Calcium Pump Activity
(Humana Press, 2012-11)
We have previously shown that plasma membrane calcium ATPase (PMCA) pump activity is affected by the membrane protein concentration (Vanagas et al., Biochim Biophys Acta 1768:1641-1644, 2007). The results of this study ...
Simvastatin disrupts cytoskeleton and decreases cardiac fibroblast adhesion, migration and viability
(Elsevier, 2012)
Statins reduce the isoprenoids farnesyl and geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate, essential intermediates,
which control a diversity of cellular events such as cytoskeleton integrity, adhesion, migration and viability.
Cardiac ...
