Linking actin dynamics and gene transcription to drive cellular motile functions.

TL;DR: The discovery that globular actin polymerization liberates myocardin-related transcription factor (MRTF) cofactors induces the nuclear transcription factor serum response factor (SRF) to modulate the expression of genes encoding structural and regulatory effectors of actin dynamics stimulated research to better understand the actin–MRTF–SRF circuit.
Journal ArticleDOI

Endocytic trafficking of Rac is required for the spatial restriction of signaling in cell migration.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that a Rab5-to-Rac circuitry controls the morphology of motile mammalian tumor cells and primordial germinal cells during zebrafish development, suggesting that this circuitry is relevant for the regulation of migratory programs in various cells, in both in vitro settings and whole organisms.
Journal ArticleDOI

The chemistry, physiology and pathology of pH in cancer

TL;DR: Elevated metabolism, weakened cell-to-capillary diffusive coupling, and adaptations involving H+/H+-equivalent transporters and extracellular-facing CAs give cancer cells the means to manipulate micro-environmental acidity, a cancer hallmark.
Journal ArticleDOI

The novel lipid raft adaptor p18 controls endosome dynamics by anchoring the MEK-ERK pathway to late endosomes.

TL;DR: Results indicate that the lipid raft adaptor p18 is essential for anchoring the MEK–ERK pathway to late endosomes, and shed new light on a role of endosomal MEK- ERK pathway in controlling endosome dynamics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Three-dimensional context regulation of metastasis

TL;DR: Synergistic interactions between matrix remodeling and tumor hypoxia influence common mechanisms that maximize tumor progression and cooperate to drive metastasis, which should identify novel therapeutic targets.

Differential expression of regulator of G‐protein signalling transcripts and in vivo migration of CD4+ naïve and regulatory T cells

TL;DR: The results suggest a role for RGS molecules in chemokine‐induced lymphocyte migration and demonstrate the peculiarity of regulatory T cells in terms of phenotype and migration ability, providing new insights into their function.
Journal Article

Cell scattering and migration induced by autocrine transforming growth factor alpha in human glioma cells in vitro.

TL;DR: The results imply that as a result of coexpression of EGFR and its ligand, individual glioma cells are capable of acting as independent autocrine locomotory units.

Adhesion dynamics: mechanisms and measurements.

TL;DR: An overview of the imaging strategies that have been developed and implemented to study the intricacies and hierarchy of protein turnover within focal adhesions is provided.

Rat G Protein-Coupled Receptor Kinase GRK4: Identification, Functional Expression, and Differential Tissue Distribution of Two Splice Variants*

TL;DR: A combination of in situ hybridization and quantitative RT-PCR studies demonstrated that GRK4A mRNA level increases during testicular development and predominates in leptotene to late pachytene primary spermatocytes and round sp...

Activation and Regulation of Platelet-Activating Factor Receptor: Role of Gi and Gq in Receptor-Mediated Chemotactic, Cytotoxic, and Cross-Regulatory Signals

TL;DR: The data indicate that Gi exclusively mediates chemotactic and cross-regulatory signals of the PAFR, but both Gi and Gq activate PI hydrolysis and exocytosis by this receptor.
