Conception et caracterisation de biocapteurs bases sur l'association de recepteurs et canaux ioniques

Lydia N. Caro
TL;DR: In this paper, les canaux sensibles a l'ATP (KATP) result from l'association unique d'une proteine ABC (le recepteur des sulfonylurees, SUR) and d'un canal potassique rectifiant entrant (Kir6.2.x).
Journal ArticleDOI

Deletion of Robo4 prevents high-fat diet-induced adipose artery and systemic metabolic dysfunction.

TL;DR: The role of Robo4 in modulating cardiometabolic function in response to high‐fat feeding was determined and it was found that Robo4 is expressed specifically in endothelial cells and increases vascular stability and inhibits angiogenesis.

Subversion of Rho GTPases by WxxxE effectors of attaching and effacing pathogens

TL;DR: This chapter introduces the WxxxE Family of Effectors, a large number of which have never been studied before, and discusses their role in the development of E.coli and its pathogenicity.
Journal ArticleDOI

GPCRs that Rhoar the Guanine nucleotide exchange factors.

TL;DR: G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest family of cell surface receptors that are involved in many signalling phenomena, including cell survival and cell migration events.

Involvement of chemokine receptors in breast cancer metastasis.

TL;DR: It is reported that the chemokine receptors CXCR4 and CCR7 are highly expressed in human breast cancer cells, malignant breast tumours and metastases and their respective ligands CXCL12/SDF-1α and CCL21/6Ckine exhibit peak levels of expression in organs representing the first destinations of breast cancer metastasis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rho GTPases in cell biology.

TL;DR: Rho GTPases are molecular switches that control a wide variety of signal transduction pathways in all eukaryotic cells and their ability to influence cell polarity, microtubule dynamics, membrane transport pathways and transcription factor activity is probably just as significant.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rho, Rac, and Cdc42 GTPases regulate the assembly of multimolecular focal complexes associated with actin stress fibers, lamellipodia, and filopodia

TL;DR: It is reported here that cdc42, another member of the rho family, triggers the formation of a third type of actin-based structure found at the cell periphery, filopodia, in addition to stress fibers, and rho controls the assembly of focal adhesion complexes.
Journal ArticleDOI

The small GTP-binding protein rac regulates growth factor-induced membrane ruffling.

TL;DR: It is proposed that rac and rho are essential components of signal transduction pathways linking growth factors to the organization of polymerized actin and that growth factors act through rac to stimulate this rho-dependent response.
