اهمیت فیبرونکتین در تکوین، ترمیم و درمان: مقاله مروری
Fibronectin (FN) is one of the essential component of the extra cellular matrix and their important role is as regulator of cellular activities and also fibronectin is an important scaffold for maintaining tissue. Fibronectin conformational changes expose additional binding sites that participate in fibril formation and in conversion of fibrils into a stabilized, insoluble form. In fact fibrone...
متن کاملInvolvement of Fyn kinase in Kit and integrin-mediated Rac activation, cytoskeletal reorganization, and chemotaxis of mast cells.
Kit receptor and its ligand stem cell factor (SCF) are critical regulators of mast cell production, proliferation, degranulation, and chemotaxis. In this study, we investigated how Fyn kinase regulates chemotaxis of mast cells toward SCF. On beta1-integrin engagement, Fyn-deficient (fyn(-/-)) mast cells displayed a striking defect in cell spreading and lamellipodia formation compared to wild-ty...
متن کاملSuppression of the invasive capacity of rat ascites hepatoma cells by knockdown of Slingshot or LIM kinase.
Actin cytoskeletal reorganization is essential for tumor cell migration, adhesion, and invasion. Cofilin and actin-depolymerizing factor (ADF) act as key regulators of actin cytoskeletal dynamics by stimulating depolymerization and severing of actin filaments. Cofilin/ADF are inactivated by phosphorylation of Ser-3 by LIM kinase-1 (LIMK1) and reactivated by dephosphorylation by Slingshot-1 (SSH...
متن کاملPHD3-mediated prolyl hydroxylation of nonmuscle actin impairs polymerization and cell motility
Actin filaments play an essential role in cell movement, and many posttranslational modifications regulate actin filament assembly. Here we report that prolyl hydroxylase 3 (PHD3) interacts with nonmuscle actin in human cells and catalyzes hydroxylation of actin at proline residues 307 and 322. Blocking PHD3 expression or catalytic activity by short hairpin RNA knockdown or pharmacological inhi...
متن کاملThe role of actin microfilaments in the down-regulation of the degranulation response in RBL-2H3 mast cells.
Cross-linking of FcepsilonRI on rat basophilic leukemia (RBL) cells initiates a signaling cascade leading to degranulation of the cells and the release of inflammatory mediators. Inhibitors that disrupt microfilaments, such as latrunculin and cytochalasin D, do not cause any degranulation on their own, but they do enhance FcepsilonRI-mediated degranulation. Dose-response studies show a good cor...
