Modulation of the axonal microtubule cytoskeleton by myelinating Schwann cells.
The Trembler PNS myelin-deficient mutant mouse offers a unique model for the study of axon-glial interactions. Previous work in our laboratory on Trembler mouse sciatic nerve established that myelinating Schwann cells exert a profound effect on the underlying neuronal cytoskeleton. Demyelinated axon segments exhibited decreases in the rate of slow axonal transport, axonal caliber, and neurofila...
متن کاملOccludin regulates actin cytoskeleton in endothelial cells.
Occludin is a major membrane component of tight junctions of endothelial cells, though the role of this molecule is not fully understood. RLE cells, derived from rat lung endothelial cells, express a negligible level of occludin with clear expression of E-cadherin and ZO-1 at cell junctions. Introduction of occludin by transfection induced clear junctional expression of occludin with few or no ...
متن کاملVisualising the actin cytoskeleton.
The actin cytoskeleton is a dynamic filamentous network whose formation and remodeling underlies the fundamental processes of cell motility and shape determination. To serve these roles, different compartments of the actin cytoskeleton engage in forming specific coupling sites between neighbouring cells and with the underlying matrix, which themselves serve signal transducing functions. In this...
متن کاملThe Bacterial Actin Cytoskeleton
M icrobial shape, long used as a taxonomic criterion, is genetically determined. But how DNA sequence information is translated into morphology is a seminal question still without a complete answer for any microorganism. Recently, however, when investigators discovered that actin-like proteins are involved in determining bacterial cell shape, they revolutionized the field. This insight provides...
متن کاملThe Actin Cytoskeleton and Polar Water Permeability in Characean Cells
The hydraulic resistance was measured on internodal cells of Chara corollina and Nitellopsis obtusa using the method of transcellular osmosis described by KAMIYA and TAzAwA in 1956. The transcellular hydraulic resistances of N. obtusa and C. corollina are 2.63 and 1.11 pm -I sPa, resepectively. These values correspond to osmotic permeability coefficients (P os) of 102.6 and 243.1 flm s I, respe...
