A Molecular Switch for Initiating Cell Differentiation in Arabidopsis
BACKGROUND The onset of differentiation entails modifying the gene expression state of cells, to allow activation of developmental programs that are maintained repressed in the undifferentiated precursor cells [1, 2]. This requires a mechanism to change gene expression on a genome-scale. Recent evidence suggests that in mammalian stem cells, derepression of developmental regulators during diffe...
متن کاملPhotodynamic activation as a molecular switch to promote osteoblast cell differentiation via AP-1 activation
In photodynamic therapy (PDT), cells are impregnated with a photosensitizing agent that is activated by light irradiation, thereby photochemically generating reactive oxygen species (ROS). The amounts of ROS produced depends on the PDT dose and the nature of the photosensitizer. Although high levels of ROS are cytotoxic, at physiological levels they play a key role as second messengers in cellu...
متن کاملStimulation of a rat uterine stromal cell line in culture reveals a molecular switch for endocrine-dependent differentiation.
Differentiation of uterine stromal cells is critical for the establishment of pregnancy. This study had two purposes: (i) to validate the use of the UIII rat uterine stromal cell model for investigating mechanisms underlying decidual cell differentiation, and (ii) to use this cell model to identify a molecular switch for cellular entry into the decidual cell differentiation pathway. Quiescent r...
متن کاملpassivity in waiting for godot and endgame: a psychoanalytic reading
this study intends to investigate samuel beckett’s waiting for godot and endgame under the lacanian psychoanalysis. it begins by explaining the most important concepts of lacanian psychoanalysis. the beckettian characters are studied regarding their state of unconscious, and not the state of consciousness as is common in most beckett studies. according to lacan, language plays the sole role in ...
Arabidopsis cell expansion is controlled by a photothermal switch
In Arabidopsis, the seedling hypocotyl has emerged as an exemplar model system to study light and temperature control of cell expansion. Light sensitivity of this organ is epitomized in the fluence rate response where suppression of hypocotyl elongation increases incrementally with light intensity. This finely calibrated response is controlled by the photoreceptor, phytochrome B, through the de...
