We reconstructed cellular motility in vitro from individual proteins to investigate how actin filaments are organized at the leading edge. Using total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy of actin filaments, we tested how profilin, Arp2/3, and capping protein (CP) function together to propel thin glass nanofibers or beads coated with N-WASP WCA domains. Thin nanofibers produced wide come...
Uveal melanoma (UM) is characterized by high metastasis and poor prognosis. A more improved understanding of the metastatic mechanism in UM cells is essential for the design of molecular therapy. Grb2‑associated binder 2 (Gab2) has been reported to serve important roles in the progression of various types of human cancer. However, the role of Gab2 in the migration and invasion of UM remains unc...
The actin cytoskeleton and associated proteins play a vital role in cell-cell adhesion. However, the procedure by which cells establish adherens junctions remains unclear. We investigated the dynamics of cell-cell junction formation and the corresponding architecture of the underlying cytoskeleton in cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells. We show that the initial interaction between c...
The isolation of the cortex of the sea urchin blastomere by detergent lysis was explored with the aim of analyzing components important in the structure and function of the cortical cytoskeleton, and their relationship to such phenomena as contraction. Buffered EGTA medium supplemented with isotonic glycerol and with magnesium, at a level close to the reported internal cellular concentration, y...
Dendritic cells are targeted by regulatory T (T reg) cells, in a manner that operates as an indirect mode of T cell suppression. In this study, using a combination of single-cell force spectroscopy and structured illumination microscopy, we analyze individual T reg cell-DC interaction events and show that T reg cells exhibit strong intrinsic adhesiveness to DCs. This increased DC adhesion reduc...
The cellular cytoskeleton is a complex dynamical network that constantly remodels as cells divide and move. This reorganization process occurs not only at the cell membrane, but also in the cell interior (bulk). During locomotion, regulated actin assembly near the plasma membrane produces lamellipodia and filopodia. Therefore, most in vitro experiments explore phenomena taking place in the vici...
We investigated 31 cases of pleomorphic carcinomas of the lung, with a double component of neoplastic epithelial cells and of spindle and/or giant cells. To correlate the morphologic diversity of these two cell components with their immunophenotype, we evaluated the expression of several gene products involved in cell differentiation (cytokeratins, epithelial membrane antigen, carcinoembryonic ...
With their essential role in inner ear function, stereocilia of sensory hair cells demonstrate the importance of cellular actin protrusions. Actin packing in stereocilia is mediated by cross-linkers of the plastin, fascin, and espin families. Although mice lacking espin (ESPN) have no vestibular or auditory function, we found that mice that either lacked plastin 1 (PLS1) or had nonfunctional fa...
