Myofibroblast development is characterized by specific cell-cell adherens junctions.
Myofibroblasts of wound granulation tissue, in contrast to dermal fibroblasts, join stress fibers at sites of cadherin-type intercellular adherens junctions (AJs). However, the function of myofibroblast AJs, their molecular composition, and the mechanisms of their formation are largely unknown. We demonstrate that fibroblasts change cadherin expression from N-cadherin in early wounds to OB-cadh...
متن کاملNornicotine impairs endothelial cell-cell adherens junction complexes in EA.hy926 cell line via structural reorganization of F-actin.
The aim of the study was to estimate the effect of nornicotine on endothelial EA.hy926 cells in the context of its impact on cell-cell junctions. The objective of the study was to determine the relationship between junctional proteins and F-actin after treating the cells with nornicotine. After 24 h of cell exposure to 0.08, 0.12, and 0.16 ng/mL nornicotine, analysis was performed of cell death...
متن کاملAdherens junction-dependent and -independent steps in the establishment of epithelial cell polarity in Drosophila
Adherens junctions (AJs) are thought to be key landmarks for establishing epithelial cell polarity, but the origin of epithelial polarity in Drosophila remains unclear. Thus, we examined epithelial polarity establishment during early Drosophila development. We found apical accumulation of both Drosophila E-Cadherin (DE-Cad) and the apical cue Bazooka (Baz) as cells first form. Mutant analyses r...
متن کاملExpression of TGF-β3 in Isolated Fibroblasts from Foreskin
Background: The multifunctional transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) is a glycoprotein that exists in three isoforms. TGF-β3 expression increases in fetal wound healing and reduces fibronectin and collagen I and III deposition, and also improves the architecture of the neodermis which is a combination of blood vessels and connective tissue during wound healing. Fibroblasts are key ...
متن کاملPKC-dependent, burn-induced adherens junction reorganization and barrier dysfunction in pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells.
Rat lung microvascular endothelial cell monolayers were exposed to donor plasma from burned rats (25% total body surface area) at 1:3 dilution for 30 min. Immunofluorescence analysis revealed that concomitant with gap formation alterations were seen in the adherens junction (AJ) proteins beta-catenin and vascular endothelial-cadherin. Both of these components were shown to exist in a smooth, un...
