Dynamic cytoskeleton rearrangements in giant cells and syncytia of nematode-infected roots Research Institute for Agriculture, Fisheries and Food
Giant cells induced by root knot nematodes and syncytia caused by cyst nematodes are large multinucleated feeding cells containing a dense cytoplasm generated during a complex host-parasite association in plant roots. To find out whether cytoskeleton changes occurred during feeding cell development, transcriptional activity of actin (ACT) and tubulin genes and organization of the ACT filaments and of the microtubules (MTs) were analyzed in ...
An actomyosin-like cytoskeleton in the cyanobiont (Nosctoc sp.) of Peltigera canina Ghent University
Syntenin-1 and Ezrin Proteins Link Activated Leukocyte Cell Adhesion Molecule to the Actin Cytoskeleton Hasselt University KU Leuven
Activated leukocyte cell adhesion molecule (ALCAM) is a type I transmembrane protein member of the immunoglobulin superfamily of cell adhesion molecules. Involved in important pathophysiological processes such as the immune response, cancer metastasis, and neuronal development, ALCAM undergoes both homotypic interactions with other ALCAM molecules and heterotypic interactions with the surface receptor CD6 expressed at the T cell surface. Despite ...
Pseudorabies virus US3 triggers RhoA phosphorylation to reorganize the actin cytoskeleton Ghent University
Equid herpesvirus type 1 (EHV-1) disrupt actin cytoskeleton during productive infection in equine leukocytes Ghent University
Effect of the US3 protein of bovine herpesvirus 5 on the actin cytoskeleton and apoptosis Ghent University
The mycotoxin deoxynivalenol promotes uptake of Salmonella Typhimurium in porcine macrophages, associated with ERK1/2 induced cytoskeleton reorganization Ghent University
YAP-TEAD1 control of cytoskeleton dynamics and intracellular tension guides human pluripotent stem cell mesoderm specification KU Leuven
The tight regulation of cytoskeleton dynamics is required for a number of cellular processes, including migration, division and differentiation. YAP-TEAD respond to cell-cell interaction and to substrate mechanics and, among their downstream effects, prompt focal adhesion (FA) gene transcription, thus contributing to FA-cytoskeleton stability. This activity is key to the definition of adult cell mechanical properties and function. Its regulation ...
Distinct temporal hierarchies in membrane and cytoskeleton dynamics precede the morphological polarization of developing neurons KU Leuven
Final morphological polarization of neurons, with the development of a distinct axon and of several dendrites, is preceded by phases of non-polarized architecture. The earliest of these phases is that of the round neuron arising from the last mitosis. A second non polarized stage corresponds to the bipolar neuron, with two morphologically identical neurites. Both phases have their distinctive relevance in the establishment of neuronal polarity. ...
