Pathogen Tactics to Manipulate Plant Cell Death
Cell death is a vital process for multicellular organisms. Programmed cell death (PCD) functions in a variety of processes including growth, development, and immune responses for homeostasis maintenance. In particular, plants and animals utilize PCD to control pathogen invasion and infected cell populations. Despite some similarity, there are a number of key differences between how these organi...
متن کاملRanking Publications : To Manipulate or Not to Manipulate ∗
We develop a multi-period theoretical model to characterize the relationship between a publication that ranks universities and prospective attendees – high school students – who might view the ranking and use it to help decide which university to attend. We assert that published rankings not only offer information about the objective quality of universities, but also have an effect on the prest...
متن کاملRoseoloviruses manipulate host cell cycle.
During lytic infections HHV-6A and HHV-6B disrupt E2F1-Rb complexes by Rb degradation, releasing E2F1 and driving the infected cells toward the S-phase. Whereas upon infection E2F1 and its cofactor DP1 were up-regulated, additional E2F responsive genes were expressed differentially in various cells. E2F binding sites were identified in promoters of several HHV-6 genes, including the U27 and U79...
متن کاملMicropatterning thermoplasmonic gold nanoarrays to manipulate cell adhesion.
The ability to reversibly control the interactions between the extracellular matrix (ECM) and cell surface receptors such as integrins would allow one to investigate reciprocal signaling circuits between cells and their surrounding environment. Engineering microstructured culture substrates functionalized with switchable molecules remains the most adopted strategy to manipulate surface adhesive...
متن کاملChase-and-run dynamics in cell motility and the molecular rupture of interacting active elastic dimers.
Cell migration in morphogenesis and cancer metastasis typically involves interplay between different cell types. We construct and study a minimal, one-dimensional model composed of two different motile cells with each cell represented as an active elastic dimer. The interaction between the two cells via cadherins is modeled as a spring that can rupture beyond a threshold force as it undergoes d...
