Transcription factor-mediated cell-to-cell signalling in plants.
Plant cells utilize mobile transcription factors to transmit intercellular signals when they perceive environmental stimuli or initiate developmental programmes. Studies on these novel cell-to-cell signals have accumulated multiple pieces of evidence showing that non-cell-autonomous transcription factors play pivotal roles in most processes related to the formation and development of plant orga...
متن کاملEpithelial cell-cell contacts regulate SRF-mediated transcription via Rac-actin-MAL signalling.
Epithelial cell-cell junctions are specialised structures connecting individual cells in epithelial tissues. They are dynamically and functionally linked to the actin cytoskeleton. Disassembly of these junctions is a key event during physiological and pathological processes, but how this influences gene expression is largely uncharacterised. Here, we investigate whether junction disassembly reg...
متن کاملTranscription factor Gfi1 restricts B cell-mediated autoimmunity.
The zinc finger transcription factor Gfi1 (growth factor-independent-1) has been involved in various cellular differentiation processes. Gfi1 acts as a transcriptional repressor and splicing control factor upon binding to cognate binding sites in regulatory elements of its target genes. In this study, we report that Gfi1-deficient mice develop autoimmunity. Gfi1-deficient peripheral B cells sho...
متن کاملCadherin-mediated cell adhesion and cell motility in Drosophila trachea regulated by the transcription factor Escargot.
Coordination of cell motility and adhesion is essential for concerted movement of tissues during animal morphogenesis. The Drosophila tracheal network is formed by branching, migration and fusion of tubular ectodermal epithelia. Tracheal tip cells, located at the end of each branch that is going to fuse, extend filopodia to search for targets and later change their cell shape to a seamless ring...
متن کاملCell-cell contact mediated signalling - no fear of contact.
Cancer research with sole focus on the cancer cell and possibly growth factors cannot faithfully reproduce the environmental interaction, such as adhesion of tumor cells to e.g. stromal cells, which may determine the response of these tumors to therapy. Methodologically cell adhesion studies are often difficult since complete but careful detachment is the prerequisite for most signal transducti...
