Rho-GTPase signaling in leukocyte extravasation
Leukocyte transendothelial migration (TEM) is one of the crucial steps during inflammation. A better understanding of the key molecules that regulate leukocyte extravasation aids to the development of novel therapeutics for treatment of inflammation-based diseases, such as atherosclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis. The adhesion molecules ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 are known as central mediators of TEM. C...
متن کاملRho GTPase signaling modulates neurotransmission in Caenorhabditis elegans
Hu, Shuang, "Rho GTPase signaling modulates neurotransmission in Caenorhabditis elegans" (2013). Theses and Dissertations. Paper 100. Rho family GTPases act as molecular switches in the regulation of diverse cellular functions, including cell division, gene transcription and neurotransmission. In the model organism Caenorhabditis elegans, the Kalirin and Trio ortholog UNC-73 contains two RhoGEF...
متن کاملWnt and Rho GTPase signaling and their interaction
Th e disability burden and prevalence of osteoarthritis (OA) in both developed and developing countries is increasing due to an aging population. OA is a degenerative joint disease that is characterized by cartilage degradation and osteophyte formation. It involves multiple components of the joint, including the synovial joint lining, peri-articular bone and adjacent supporting connective tissu...
متن کاملARHGDIA mutations cause nephrotic syndrome via defective RHO GTPase signaling.
Nephrotic syndrome (NS) is divided into steroid-sensitive (SSNS) and -resistant (SRNS) variants. SRNS causes end-stage kidney disease, which cannot be cured. While the disease mechanisms of NS are not well understood, genetic mapping studies suggest a multitude of unknown single-gene causes. We combined homozygosity mapping with whole-exome resequencing and identified an ARHGDIA mutation that c...
متن کاملActin’ up: Herpesvirus Interactions with Rho GTPase Signaling
Herpesviruses constitute a very large and diverse family of DNA viruses, which can generally be subdivided in alpha-, beta- and gammaherpesvirus subfamilies. Increasing evidence indicates that many herpesviruses interact with cytoskeleton-regulating Rho GTPase signaling pathways during different phases of their replication cycle. Because of the large differences between herpesvirus subfamilies,...
