Coupling membrane protrusion and cell adhesion.
The ability of cells to extend cell membranes is central to numerous biological processes, including cell migration, cadherin-mediated junction formation and phagocytosis. Much attention has been focused on understanding the signals that trigger membrane protrusion and the architecture of the resulting extension. Similarly, cell adhesion has been extensively studied, yielding a wealth of inform...
متن کاملIntegrin-mediated adhesion regulates cell polarity and membrane protrusion through the Rho family of GTPases.
Integrin-mediated adhesion is a critical regulator of cell migration. Here we demonstrate that integrin-mediated adhesion to high fibronectin concentrations induces a stop signal for cell migration by inhibiting cell polarization and protrusion. On fibronectin, the stop signal is generated through alpha 5 beta 1 integrin-mediated signaling to the Rho family of GTPases. Specifically, Cdc42 and R...
متن کاملIntegrin-mediated Adhesion Regulates Cell Polarity and Membrane Protrusion through the Rho Family of GTPases□V
Integrin-mediated adhesion is a critical regulator of cell migration. Here we demonstrate that integrin-mediated adhesion to high fibronectin concentrations induces a stop signal for cell migration by inhibiting cell polarization and protrusion. On fibronectin, the stop signal is generated through a5b1 integrin-mediated signaling to the Rho family of GTPases. Specifically, Cdc42 and Rac1 activa...
متن کاملIntegrating Adhesion, Protrusion, and Contraction during Cell Migration
Cell migration is fastest when the strength of the adhesion between the cell and the substrate is neither too strong nor too weak. In this issue of Cell, reveal how adhesion and cytoskeletal dynamics are integrated to optimize migration speed.
متن کاملRho GTPases Control Polarity, Protrusion, and Adhesion during Cell Movement
Cell movement is essential during embryogenesis to establish tissue patterns and to drive morphogenetic pathways and in the adult for tissue repair and to direct cells to sites of infection. Animal cells move by crawling and the driving force is derived primarily from the coordinated assembly and disassembly of actin filaments. The small GTPases, Rho, Rac, and Cdc42, regulate the organization o...
