Physangulidine A, a withanolide from Physalis angulata, perturbs the cell cycle and induces cell death by apoptosis in prostate cancer cells
(American Chemical Society, 2013)
Recently, our group reported the discovery of three new withanolides, physangulidines A–C, from Physalis angulata. In this study, the biological effects of physangulidine A (1), which was the most active and abundant of ...
Potato Snakin-1 Gene Silencing Affects Cell Division, Primary Metabolism, and Cell Wall Composition
(American Society of Plant Biologists, 2012-01)
Snakin-1 (SN1) is an antimicrobial cysteine-rich peptide isolated from potato (Solanum tuberosum) that was classified as a member of the Snakin/Gibberellic Acid Stimulated in Arabidopsis protein family. In this work, a ...
Arabidopsis α Aurora kinases function in formative cell division plane orientation
(American Society of Plant Biologist, 2011-11)
To establish three-dimensional structures/organs, plant cells continuously have to adapt the orientation of their division plane in a highly regulated manner. However, mechanisms underlying switches in division plane ...
Inhibition of Cell Division and DNA Replication Impair Mouse-Naïve Pluripotency Exit
(Academic Press Ltd - Elsevier Science Ltd, 2017-09)
The cell cycle has gained attention as a key determinant for cell fate decisions, but the contribution of DNA replication and mitosis in stem cell differentiation has not been extensively studied. To understand if these ...
Temperature Dependence of Cell Division Timing Accounts for a Shift in the Thermal Limits of C. elegans and C. briggsae
(Elsevier, 2015-02)
Cold-blooded animals, which cannot directly control their body temperatures, have adapted to function within specific temperature ranges that vary between species. However, little is known about what sets the limits of the ...
Arabidopsis KCBP interacts with AIR9 but stays in the cortical division zone throughout mitosis via its MyTH4-FERM domain
(Company of Biologists, 2015-04)
The preprophase band of microtubules performs a critical function by marking the plane of plant cell division. Although the preprophase band depolymerises at the onset of mitosis the division plane is memorized by a cortical ...
Plagiochiline A Inhibits Cytokinetic Abscission and Induces Cell Death
(MDPI, 2018)
We previously reported on the isolation and biological activities of plagiochiline A (1), a 2,3-secoaromadendrane-type sesquiterpenoid from the Peruvian medicinal plant, Plagiochila disticha. This compound was found to ...
Neutral dynamics and cell renewal of colonic crypts in homeostatic regime
(IOP Publishing, 2018-03-01)
The self renewal process in colonic crypts is the object of several studies. We present here a new compartment model with the following characteristics: (a) we distinguish different classes of cells: stem cells, six ...
Rab24 is required for normal cell division
(Wiley, 2013-03-08)
Rab24 is an atypical member of the Rab GTPase family whose distribution in interphase cells has been characterized; however, its function remains largely unknown. In this study, we have analyzed the distribution of Rab24 ...
Salt tolerance variability among stress‐selected Panicum coloratum cv. Klein plants
(Wiley; British Grassland Society; European Grassland Federation, 2016-11)
This work assessed intracultivar variability for salt tolerance within Panicum coloratum cv. Klein, explored some physiological parameters potentially associated with it and evaluated the contribution of cell division and ...
