Sentences with phrase «growth of the actin»

Teams from CNRS, the Université de Strasbourg and Inserm, led by Daniel Riveline [1], Jean - Marie Lehn [2] and Marie - France Carlier [3], have synthesized molecules capable of causing rapid growth of actin networks, one of the components of the cytoskeleton.

Not exact matches

In addition, they have identified the growth mechanism of the actin network by comparative in vivo and in vitro studies in order to ensure the validity of the process.

Derived from supramolecular chemistry [4], the new compounds synthesized by the researchers have original properties: within several minutes, they bring about the growth of lamellar networks of actin filaments.

Polarized growth in the absence of F - actin in Saccharomyces cerevisiae exiting quiescence.

Much of this dynamic happens in close proximity to the plasma membrane due to the fact that actin assembly factors are membrane - bound, and thus actin filaments are generally oriented such that their growth occurs against or near the membrane.

Specifically, the team hypothesizes that microRNA miR - 24 is a key regulator of actin cytoskeleton dynamics (i.e. the inner structural support of a cell); therefore, it plays a critical role in regulating multiple disease processes, including the angiogenesis (blood vessel growth), inflammation, and fibrosis (thickening and scarring of tissue) associated with choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in wet AMD.

We already have evidence that endocytosis is involved in the spatial restriction of motogenic signals, leading to localised actin remodelling in response to growth factor stimulation (14).
