Cell division and cadherin-mediated adhesion regulate lens epithelial cell movement in zebrafish.
In vertebrates, lens epithelial cells cover the anterior half of the lens fiber core. During development, lens epithelial cells proliferate, move posteriorly and differentiate into lens fiber cells after passing through the equator. To elucidate the mechanisms underlying lens epithelial cell movement, we conducted time-lapse imaging of zebrafish lens epithelium. Lens epithelial cells do not int...
متن کاملCadherin-mediated cell-cell adhesion in the testis.
During spermatogenesis, the differentiating germ cells migrate across the seminiferous epithelium while maintaining close contact with the surrounding Sertoli cells via specialized actin-based adherens junctions (ectoplasmic specializations) and intermediate filament-based anchoring junctions (desmosome-like junctions). Although this migration is essential for correct completion of spermatogene...
متن کاملCadherin cell-adhesion molecules in human epithelial tissues and carcinomas.
Two distinct calcium-sensitive cell-cell adhesion molecules were identified in human epithelial tissues and carcinomas using two monoclonal antibodies raised against vulvar epidermoid carcinoma A-431 and human mammary carcinoma MCF-7 and selected on the basis of their activities to disrupt cell-cell adhesion. In immunoblot analysis, these antibodies, designated NCC-CAD-299 and HECD-1, detected ...
متن کاملChanges in E-cadherin rigidity sensing regulate cell adhesion.
Mechanical cues are sensed and transduced by cell adhesion complexes to regulate diverse cell behaviors. Extracellular matrix (ECM) rigidity sensing by integrin adhesions has been well studied, but rigidity sensing by cadherins during cell adhesion is largely unexplored. Using mechanically tunable polyacrylamide (PA) gels functionalized with the extracellular domain of E-cadherin (Ecad-Fc), we ...
متن کاملRab11 is required for maintenance of cell shape via βPS integrin mediated cell adhesion in Drosophila
In eukaryotes, vesicle trafficking is regulated by the small monomeric GTPases of the Rab protein family. Rab11, (a subfamily of the Ypt/Rab gene family) an evolutionarily conserved, ubiquitously expressed subfamily of small monomeric Rab GTPases, has been implicated in regulating vesicular trafficking through the recycling of endosomal compartment. In an earlier communication, we have shown th...
