Evidence for a role of dystroglycan regulating the membrane architecture of astroglial endfeet
The dystrophin-dystroglycan complex (DDC) is a molecular array of proteins in muscle and brain cells. The central component of the DDC is dystroglycan, which comprises α- and β-subunits. α-Dystroglycan (α-DG) binds to extracellular matrix components such as agrin, whereas β-dystroglycan (β-DG) is a membrane-spanning protein linking α-DG to the cytoskeleton and other intracellular components suc...
متن کاملDact1-3 mRNAs exhibit distinct expression domains during tooth development.
Wnt signaling is essential for tooth formation and Dact proteins modulate Wnt signaling by binding to the intracellular protein Dishevelled (Dvl). Comparison of the three known mouse Dact genes, Dact1-3, from the morphological initiation of mandibular first molar development through the onset of root formation using section in situ hybridization showed distinct, complementary and overlapping ex...
متن کاملSecretory pathway Ca(2+)-ATPase (SPCA1) Ca(2)+ pumps, not SERCAs, regulate complex [Ca(2+)](i) signals in human spermatozoa.
The sarcoplasmic-endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA) inhibitors thapsigargin (0.1-1 microM) and cyclopiazonic acid (10 microM), failed to affect resting [Ca(2+)] in human spermatozoa. Slow progesterone-induced [Ca(2+ i)](i) oscillations in human spermatozoa, which involve cyclic emptying-refilling of an intracellular Ca(2+) store were also insensitive to these inhibitors. Non-selective ...
متن کاملFGF-2 in Astroglial Cells During Vertebrate Spinal Cord Recovery
Fibroblast growth factor-2 is a pleiotrophic cytokine with neurotrophic and gliogenic properties. It is known to regulate CNS injury responses, which include transformation of reactive astrocytes, neurogenesis, and promotion of neurotrophic activities. In the brain, it is localized in astrocytes and discrete neuronal populations. Following both central and peripheral nervous system injury, astr...
متن کاملAlcohol exposure during adulthood induces neuronal and astroglial alterations in the hippocampal CA-1 area.
Ethanol (ETOH) exposure can result in neuronal damage. Astrocytes are morphologic and functionally related to neurons, and astrocyte-neuron interactions provide strategic sites for the actions of many chemical compounds. The aim of the present work was to study the morphologic alterations of glial cells and neurons on the hippocampus after long-term ETOH exposure using GFAP and S-100 beta prote...
