Microtubule disruption stimulates P-body formation.
Processing bodies (P-bodies) are subcellular ribonucleoprotein (RNP) granules that have been hypothesized to be sites of mRNA degradation, mRNA translational control, and/or mRNA storage. Importantly, P-bodies are conserved from yeast to mammals and contain a common set of evolutionarily conserved protein constituents. P-bodies are dynamic structures and their formation appears to fluctuate in ...
متن کاملDisrupting the establishment of polarizing activity by teratogen exposure
Between days 9.5 and 10, the forelimb buds of developing murine embryos progress from stage 1 which are just beginning to express shh and whose posterior mesoderm has only weak polarizing activity to stage 2 limbs with a distinguishable shh expression domain and full polarizing activity. We find that exposure on day 9.5 to teratogens that induce the loss of posterior skeletal elements disrupts ...
متن کاملTeratogen update: iodine deficiency, a community teratogen.
In the last decade, iodine deficiency disorders (IDD) have become recognized as the most common preventable cause of mental retardation worldwide. Iodine deficiency interferes severely with prenatal and postnatal growth and neurologic development of individuals. It has condemned tens of millions of children to cretinism—characterized by mental and growth retardation, rigid spastic motor disorde...
متن کاملNormal forces and myofibrillar disruption after repeated eccentric exercise.
To investigate the "rapid-adaptation" phenomenon, we examined force, neural, and morphological adaptations in 12 subjects who performed 100 eccentric contractions with the quadriceps muscle (bout 1) and repeated the same exercise after a 2-wk hiatus (bout 2). Two days after bout 1, quadriceps muscle strength and surface electromyographic (EMG) activity declined approximately 37 and 28%, respect...
متن کاملAxis Formation: Redundancy Rules
The role of BMP antagonists in the Spemann-Mangold organizer of vertebrate embryos is a controversial issue. A study using combined knock down of multiple antagonists finally reveals dramatic effects.
