Rho GTPase signalling in cell migration
Cells migrate in multiple different ways depending on their environment, which includes the extracellular matrix composition, interactions with other cells, and chemical stimuli. For all types of cell migration, Rho GTPases play a central role, although the relative contribution of each Rho GTPase depends on the environment and cell type. Here, I review recent advances in our understanding of h...
متن کاملNitric oxide promotes epidermal stem cell migration via cGMP-Rho GTPase signalling
The migration and reepithelization of epidermal stem cells (ESCs) are the most critical processes in wound healing. The gaseous messenger nitric oxide (NO) has multiple biological effects, but its actions on ESCs are poorly understood. In this study, an NO donor, S-nitroso-N-acetylpenicillamine (SNAP), was found to facilitate the in vitro migration of human ESCs (huESCs) in both live-imaging an...
متن کاملNitric Oxide Enhances Keratinocyte Cell Migration by Regulating Rho GTPase via cGMP-PKG Signalling
OBJECTIVE Nitric oxide (NO) has been shown to improve wound healing, but the mechanism underlying this function is not well defined. Here, we explored the effect of NO on the migration of a human keratinocyte cell line (HaCaT) and its possible mechanism. METHODS The effects of NO on HaCaT cells in the presence of different concentrations of the NO donor sodium nitroprusside (SNP) were evaluat...
متن کاملP-cadherin-mediated Rho GTPase regulation during collective cell migration
This commentary addresses the role of P-cadherin in collective cell migration (CCM), a cooperative and coordinated migration mode, used by cells during normal and pathological migration processes. We discuss how cadherin-mediated cell-cell junctions (CCJs) play a critical role in CCM through their ability to regulate Rho GTPase-dependent pathways and how this leads to the generation and orienta...
متن کاملThe Rho GTPase Wrch1 regulates osteoclast precursor adhesion and migration.
An excess of osteoclastic bone resorption relative to osteoblastic bone formation results in progressive bone loss, characteristic of osteoporosis. Understanding the mechanisms of osteoclast differentiation is essential to develop novel therapeutic approaches to prevent and treat osteoporosis. We showed previously that Wrch1/RhoU is the only RhoGTPase whose expression is induced by RANKL during...
