Engulfment of pathogens by phagocytosis requires the coordination of actin assembly and progressive 'zippering' of pseudopodial membranes around the particle. Recent work shows that Myosin-X ...
Actin dynamics during phagocytosis. Semin Immunol 2001; 13:347–355. Article CAS PubMed Google Scholar Chimini G, Chavrier P . Function of Rho family proteins in ...
In particular, TREM2-deficient microglia poorly polymerize actin, and phagocytosis requires more actin polymerization than does digestive exophagy, Sole-Domenech told Alzforum. “It is therefore ...
The actin cytoskeleton is essential for maintaining the shape and structure of cells, ... organelle transport and phagocytosis. Since actin is so essential to cellular function, ...
Shape Matters To Macrophages: Phagocytosis Depends More On Particle Shape Than Size. ScienceDaily . Retrieved June 4, 2025 from www.sciencedaily.com / releases / 2006 / 03 / 060322183627.htm ...
The actin cytoskeleton provides force for dynamic cellular processes, such as motility, morphogenesis, cell division, endocytosis, and phagocytosis. The organization and dynamics of actin filaments ...
University of California-Santa Barbara scientists say they've made a surprising discovery: phagocytosis depends more on particle shape than size. The research has far-reaching implications for ...
Embryos can eliminate bacterial infections before developing an immune system by using epithelial cells to ingest and destroy bacteria through actin-dependent phagocytosis.
Researchers have created a computational model capable of predicting whether or not organisms have the ability to 'eat' other cells through a process known as phagocytosis. The model may be a ...
In the present study another aspect of metabolism during phagocytosis was examined — namely, the synthesis of cellular lecithin from 32 P-labeled lysolecithin complexed to albumin in the medium.
The actin cytoskeleton plays a central role in multiple biological processes including muscle contraction, cell motility, cell division, endocytosis, and phagocytosis. The group is part of Finnish ...
