Cellular stress response cross talk maintains protein and energy homeostasis.
Maintenance of cellular homeostasis depends upon several pathways that allow a cell to respond and adapt to both environmental stress and changes in metabolic status. New work in this issue of The EMBO Journal reveals a mechanism of cross talk between heat shock factor 1 (HSF1), the primary regulator of the proteotoxic stress response, and AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), the primary sensor...
متن کاملNucleoporin Nup62 maintains centrosome homeostasis
Centrosomes are comprised of 2 orthogonally arranged centrioles surrounded by the pericentriolar material (PCM), which serves as the main microtubule organizing center of the animal cell. More importantly, centrosomes also control spindle polarity and orientation during mitosis. Recently, we and other investigators discovered that several nucleoporins play critical roles during cell division. H...
متن کاملA Calcium-Dependent Plasticity Rule for HCN Channels Maintains Activity Homeostasis and Stable Synaptic Learning
Theoretical and computational frameworks for synaptic plasticity and learning have a long and cherished history, with few parallels within the well-established literature for plasticity of voltage-gated ion channels. In this study, we derive rules for plasticity in the hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated (HCN) channels, and assess the synergy between synaptic and HCN channel pla...
متن کاملVASCULAR BIOLOGY NHERF-2 maintains endothelial homeostasis
The Na /H exchanger regulatory factor-2 (NHERF-2) is an integral component of almost all endothelial cells (ECs), yet its endothelial function is not known. Here, we found that NHERF-2, is a key regulator of endothelial homeostasis because NHERF-2–silenced ECs proliferate at a much higher rate even in the absence of mitogens such as VEGF compared with control ECs. We further show that the hyper...
متن کاملSilicon Synaptic Homeostasis
Synaptic homeostasis is a mechanism present in biological neural systems used to stabilize the network’s activity. It acts by scaling the synaptic weights in order to keep the neurons firing rate within a functional range, in face of chronic changes of their activity level, while preserving the relative differences between individual synapses. In analog VLSI spike based neural networks, homeost...
