Integrin Localized at Endothelial Lateral Junctions
Cell-to-cell junction structures play a key role in cell growth rate control and cell polarization. In endothelial cells (EC), these structures are also involved in regulation of vascular permeability and leukocyte extravasation. To identify novel components in EC intercellular junctions, mAbs against these cells were produced and selected using a morphological screening by immunofluorescence m...
متن کاملInternalized gap junctions are degraded by autophagy
Direct intercellular communication mediated by gap junctions (GJs) is a hallmark of normal cell and tissue physiology. In addition, GJs significantly contribute to physical cell-cell adhesion. Clearly, these cellular functions require precise modulation. Typically, GJs represent arrays of hundreds to thousands of densely packed channels, each one assembled from two half-channels (connexons), th...
متن کاملAnalysis of integrin turnover in fly myotendinous junctions.
Transient (short-term) cell adhesion underlies dynamic processes such as cell migration, whereas stable (long-term) cell adhesion maintains tissue architecture. Ongoing adhesion complex turnover is essential for transient cell adhesion, but it is not known whether turnover is also required for maintenance of long-term adhesion. We used fluorescence recovery after photobleaching to analyze the d...
متن کاملIntegrin and Adhesion Regulation of Autophagy and Mitophagy
Cell differentiation is a dynamic process that generates a functionally distinct cell from its progenitor. For example, human erythrocytes lack most organelles including a nucleus while erythrocyte precursors have a complete set of organelles. Autophagy plays a critical role in organelle elimination in differentiating erythrocytes. On the other hand, most other differentiated cells in the body ...
متن کاملWho consumes whole grains, and how much?
Regular consumption of whole grain foods has been associated with a reduction in the incidence of cardiovascular disease and diabetes, reductions in cancer mortality at certain sites and an overall reduction in premature death. Although benefits are observed at relatively low levels of intake (between two and three servings per d), the consumption of whole grain foods in some Western countries ...
