Cytokine-induced F-actin reorganization in endothelial cells involves RhoA activation.
Acute ischemic kidney injury results in marked increases in local and systemic cytokine levels. IL-1alpha, IL-6, and TNF-alpha orchestrate various inflammatory reactions influencing endothelial permeability by altering cell-to-cell and cell-to-extracellular matrix attachments. To explore the role of actin and the regulatory proteins RhoA and cofilin in this process, microvascular endothelial ce...
متن کاملPolymer-induced bundling of F actin and the depletion force.
The inert polymer polyethylene glycol (PEG) induces a "bundling" phenomenon in F actin solutions when its concentration exceeds a critical onset value C(o). Over a limited range of PEG molecular weight and ionic strength, C(o) can be expressed as a function of these two variables. The process is reversible, but hysteresis is also observed in the dissolution of the bundles, with ionic strength h...
متن کاملRhoA-kinase coordinates F-actin organization and myosin II activity during semaphorin-3A-induced axon retraction.
Axon guidance is mediated by the effects of attractant and repellent guidance cues on the cytoskeleton of growth cones and axons. During development, axon retraction is an important aspect of the pruning of inappropriately targeted axons in response to repellent guidance cues. I investigated the roles of RhoA-kinase and myosin II in semaphorin-3A-induced growth cone collapse and axon retraction...
متن کاملActin-Capping Protein and the Hippo pathway regulate F-actin and tissue growth in Drosophila.
The conserved Hippo tumor suppressor pathway is a key kinase cascade that controls tissue growth by regulating the nuclear import and activity of the transcription co-activator Yorkie. Here, we report that the actin-Capping Protein αβ heterodimer, which regulates actin polymerization, also functions to suppress inappropriate tissue growth by inhibiting Yorkie activity. Loss of Capping Protein a...
متن کاملF-actin-rich contractile endothelial pores prevent vascular leakage during leukocyte diapedesis through local RhoA signalling.
During immune surveillance and inflammation, leukocytes exit the vasculature through transient openings in the endothelium without causing plasma leakage. However, the exact mechanisms behind this intriguing phenomenon are still unknown. Here we report that maintenance of endothelial barrier integrity during leukocyte diapedesis requires local endothelial RhoA cycling. Endothelial RhoA depletio...
