Cell Communication
Any of several ways in which living cells of an organism communicate with one another, whether by direct contact between cells or by means of chemical signals carried by neurotransmitter substances, hormones, and cyclic AMP.
Gap Junctions
Connections between cells which allow passage of small molecules and electric current. Gap junctions were first described anatomically as regions of close apposition between cells with a narrow (1-2 nm) gap between cell membranes. The variety in the properties of gap junctions is reflected in the number of CONNEXINS, the family of proteins which form the junctions.
Communication
The exchange or transmission of ideas, attitudes, or beliefs between individuals or groups.
Intercellular Junctions
Direct contact of a cell with a neighboring cell. Most such junctions are too small to be resolved by light microscopy, but they can be visualized by conventional or freeze-fracture electron microscopy, both of which show that the interacting CELL MEMBRANE and often the underlying CYTOPLASM and the intervening EXTRACELLULAR SPACE are highly specialized in these regions. (From Alberts et al., Molecular Biology of the Cell, 2d ed, p792)
Oligonucleotide Array Sequence Analysis

Signal Transduction
The intracellular transfer of information (biological activation/inhibition) through a signal pathway. In each signal transduction system, an activation/inhibition signal from a biologically active molecule (hormone, neurotransmitter) is mediated via the coupling of a receptor/enzyme to a second messenger system or to an ion channel. Signal transduction plays an important role in activating cellular functions, cell differentiation, and cell proliferation. Examples of signal transduction systems are the GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID-postsynaptic receptor-calcium ion channel system, the receptor-mediated T-cell activation pathway, and the receptor-mediated activation of phospholipases. Those coupled to membrane depolarization or intracellular release of calcium include the receptor-mediated activation of cytotoxic functions in granulocytes and the synaptic potentiation of protein kinase activation. Some signal transduction pathways may be part of larger signal transduction pathways; for example, protein kinase activation is part of the platelet activation signal pathway.

The homeobox gene Pitx2: mediator of asymmetric left-right signaling in vertebrate heart and gut looping. (1/8670)

Left-right asymmetry in vertebrates is controlled by activities emanating from the left lateral plate. How these signals get transmitted to the forming organs is not known. A candidate mediator in mouse, frog and zebrafish embryos is the homeobox gene Pitx2. It is asymmetrically expressed in the left lateral plate mesoderm, tubular heart and early gut tube. Localized Pitx2 expression continues when these organs undergo asymmetric looping morphogenesis. Ectopic expression of Xnr1 in the right lateral plate induces Pitx2 transcription in Xenopus. Misexpression of Pitx2 affects situs and morphology of organs. These experiments suggest a role for Pitx2 in promoting looping of the linear heart and gut.  (+info)

oko meduzy mutations affect neuronal patterning in the zebrafish retina and reveal cell-cell interactions of the retinal neuroepithelial sheet. (2/8670)

Mutations of the oko meduzy (ome) locus cause drastic neuronal patterning defect in the zebrafish retina. The precise, stratified appearance of the wild-type retina is absent in the mutants. Despite the lack of lamination, at least seven retinal cell types differentiate in oko meduzy. The ome phenotype is already expressed in the retinal neuroepithelium affecting morphology of the neuroepithelial cells. Our experiments indicate that previously unknown cell-cell interactions are involved in development of the retinal neuroepithelial sheet. In genetically mosaic animals, cell-cell interactions are sufficient to rescue the phenotype of oko meduzy retinal neuroepithelial cells. These cell-cell interactions may play a critical role in the patterning events that lead to differentiation of distinct neuronal laminae in the vertebrate retina.  (+info)

The Gab1 PH domain is required for localization of Gab1 at sites of cell-cell contact and epithelial morphogenesis downstream from the met receptor tyrosine kinase. (3/8670)

Stimulation of the hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) receptor tyrosine kinase, Met, induces mitogenesis, motility, invasion, and branching tubulogenesis of epithelial and endothelial cell lines in culture. We have previously shown that Gab1 is the major phosphorylated protein following stimulation of the Met receptor in epithelial cells that undergo a morphogenic program in response to HGF. Gab1 is a member of the family of IRS-1-like multisubstrate docking proteins and, like IRS-1, contains an amino-terminal pleckstrin homology domain, in addition to multiple tyrosine residues that are potential binding sites for proteins that contain SH2 or PTB domains. Following stimulation of epithelial cells with HGF, Gab1 associates with phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and the tyrosine phosphatase SHP2. Met receptor mutants that are impaired in their association with Gab1 fail to induce branching tubulogenesis. Overexpression of Gab1 rescues the Met-dependent tubulogenic response in these cell lines. The ability of Gab1 to promote tubulogenesis is dependent on its pleckstrin homology domain. Whereas the wild-type Gab1 protein is localized to areas of cell-cell contact, a Gab1 protein lacking the pleckstrin homology domain is localized predominantly in the cytoplasm. Localization of Gab1 to areas of cell-cell contact is inhibited by LY294002, demonstrating that phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase activity is required. These data show that Gab1 is an important mediator of branching tubulogenesis downstream from the Met receptor and identify phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and the Gab1 pleckstrin homology domain as crucial for subcellular localization of Gab1 and biological responses.  (+info)

p27 is involved in N-cadherin-mediated contact inhibition of cell growth and S-phase entry. (4/8670)

In this study the direct involvement of cadherins in adhesion-mediated growth inhibition was investigated. It is shown here that overexpression of N-cadherin in CHO cells significantly suppresses their growth rate. Interaction of these cells and two additional fibroblastic lines with synthetic beads coated with N-cadherin ligands (recombinant N-cadherin ectodomain or specific antibodies) leads to growth arrest at the G1 phase of the cell cycle. The cadherin-reactive beads inhibit the entry into S phase and the reduction in the levels of cyclin-dependent kinase (cdk) inhibitors p21 and p27, following serum-stimulation of starved cells. In exponentially growing cells these beads induce G1 arrest accompanied by elevation in p27 only. We propose that cadherin-mediated signaling is involved in contact inhibition of growth by inducing cell cycle arrest at the G1 phase and elevation of p27 levels.  (+info)

Endothelial cells modulate the proliferation of mural cell precursors via platelet-derived growth factor-BB and heterotypic cell contact. (5/8670)

Embryological data suggest that endothelial cells (ECs) direct the recruitment and differentiation of mural cell precursors. We have developed in vitro coculture systems to model some of these events and have shown that ECs direct the migration of undifferentiated mesenchymal cells (10T1/2 cells) and induce their differentiation toward a smooth muscle cell/pericyte lineage. The present study was undertaken to investigate cell proliferation in these cocultures. ECs and 10T1/2 cells were cocultured in an underagarose assay in the absence of contact. There was a 2-fold increase in bromodeoxyuridine labeling of 10T1/2 cells in response to ECs, which was completely inhibited by the inclusion of neutralizing antiserum against platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-B. Antisera against PDGF-A, basic fibroblast growth factor, or transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta had no effect on EC-stimulated 10T1/2 cell proliferation. EC proliferation was not influenced by coculture with 10T1/2 cells in the absence of contact. The cells were then cocultured so that contact was permitted. Double labeling and fluorescence-activated cell sorter analysis revealed that ECs and 10T1/2 cells were growth-inhibited by 43% and 47%, respectively. Conditioned media from contacting EC-10T1/2 cell cocultures inhibited the growth of both cell types by 61% and 48%, respectively. Although we have previously shown a role for TGF-beta in coculture-induced mural cell differentiation, growth inhibition resulting from contacting cocultures or conditioned media was not suppressed by the presence of neutralizing antiserum against TGF-beta. Furthermore, the decreased proliferation of 10T1/2 cells in the direct cocultures could not be attributed to downregulation of the PDGF-B in ECs or the PDGF receptor-beta in the 10T1/2 cells. Our data suggest that modulation of proliferation occurs during EC recruitment of mesenchymal cells and that heterotypic cell-cell contact and soluble factors play a role in growth control during vessel assembly.  (+info)

Cell surface sialic acid and the regulation of immune cell interactions: the neuraminidase effect reconsidered. (6/8670)

It has been known for over a decade that sialidase (neuraminidase) treatment could substantially enhance the capacity of resting B cells to stimulate the proliferation of allogeneic and antigen specific, syngeneic T cells. Thus, cell-surface sialic acid was implicated as a potential modulator of immune cell interaction. However, little progress has been made in either identifying explicit roles for sialic acid in this system or in hypothesizing mechanisms to explain the "neuraminidase effect." Here we show for the first time that cell surface sialic acid on medium incubated B cells blocks access to costimulatory molecules on the B cell surface, and that this is the most likely explanation for the neuraminidase effect. Further, we show that it is likely to be upregulation of ICAM-1 and its subsequent engagement of LFA-1 rather than loss of cell surface sialic acid that in part regulates access to CD86 and other costimulatory molecules. However, we cannot exclude a role for CD86-bound sialic acid on the B cell in modulating binding to T cell CD28. Because sialidase treatment of resting B cells but not resting T cells enables T cell activation, we suggest that sialidase treatment may still be an analogue for an authentic step in B cell activation, and show that for highly activated B cells (activated with polyclonal anti-IgM plus INF-gamma) there is specific loss 2, 6-linked sialic acid. Potential roles for sialic acid in modulating B cell/T cell collaboration are discussed.  (+info)

Glucocorticoid down-regulation of fascin protein expression is required for the steroid-induced formation of tight junctions and cell-cell interactions in rat mammary epithelial tumor cells. (7/8670)

Glucocorticoid hormones, which are physiological regulators of mammary epithelium development, induce the formation of tight junctions in rat Con8 mammary epithelial tumor cells. We have discovered that, as part of this process, the synthetic glucocorticoid dexamethasone strongly and reversibly down-regulated the expression of fascin, an actin-bundling protein that also interacts with the adherens junction component beta-catenin. Ectopic constitutive expression of full-length mouse fascin containing a Myc epitope tag (Myc-fascin) in Con8 cells inhibited the dexamethasone stimulation of transepithelial electrical resistance, disrupted the induced localization of the tight junction protein occludin and the adherens junction protein beta-catenin to the cell periphery, and prevented the rearrangement of the actin cytoskeleton. Ectopic expression of either the carboxyl-terminal 213 amino acids of fascin, which includes the actin and beta-catenin-binding sites, or the amino-terminal 313 amino acids of fascin failed to disrupt the glucocorticoid induction of tight junction formation. Mammary tumor cells expressing the full-length Myc-fascin remained generally glucocorticoid responsive and displayed no changes in the levels or protein-protein interactions of junctional proteins or the amount of cytoskeletal associated actin filaments. However, a cell aggregation assay demonstrated that the expression of Myc-fascin abrogated the dexamethasone induction of cell-cell adhesion. Our results implicate the down-regulation of fascin as a key intermediate step that directly links glucocorticoid receptor signaling to the coordinate control of junctional complex formation and cell-cell interactions in mammary tumor epithelial cells.  (+info)

Novel insights into human endometrial paracrinology and embryo-maternal communication by intrauterine microdialysis. (8/8670)

The regulation of human implantation is still unknown. Evidence from mice suggests an essential role for several paracrine mediators but species differences with implantation in the human preclude the extrapolation of these concepts to humans. An intrauterine microdialysis device (IUMD), consisting of microdialysis tubing glued into a balloon catheter on one side and into a polypropylene tube on the other, allows a dynamic and accurate in-vivo measurement of uterine paracrine interactions in humans. Inserted into the uterine cavity in the form of a loop, it can be continuously perfused with saline to reveal a number of relevant cytokines and growth factors in uterine effluents of non-pregnant women in both follicular and luteal phases. These included interleukin (IL)-1alpha, IL-1beta, IL-6, leukaemia inhibitory factor (LIF), macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF), epidermal growth factor, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), insulin-like growth factor binding protein-1 (IGFBP-1), prolactin, and human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG). The source of intrauterine HCG is unclear since endometrial mRNA for the HCG beta-subunit is not revealed using reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction analysis. Applying urinary HCG locally via the IUMD profoundly alters endometrial secretory parameters. Prolactin, IGFBP-1, and M-CSF are significantly inhibited and VEGF is regulated in a biphasic manner involving early stimulation followed by inhibition of intrauterine levels. Use of the IUMD has thus shown that the urinary HCG preparations routinely used for ovulation induction and luteal support may directly alter endometrial function.  (+info)

The Rhomboid family of intramembrane proteases, conserved regulators of cell communicationThe Rhomboid family of intramembrane proteases, conserved regulators of cell communication
The development of multicellular organisms relies heavily on cell communication. Cells send and receive complex sets of signals, harmonising their growth and differentiation with that of other, often distant, cell populations. In animals, the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) is an important mediator of cell communication. EGFR activation regulates various developmental events in nematodes, insects and vertebrates. In addition, mutations in human EGFRs have been associated with a number of cancers. In Drosophila, a key event triggering EGFR signalling is the regulated release of the extracellular portion of EGFR ligands. Rhomboid (Rho), an unusual polytopic protease, cleaves the transmembrane, inactive ligand precursor into an active, soluble form. Both the target sequence and Rho s catalytic site are embedded within the membrane bilayer and for this reason the reaction has been described as regulated intramembrane proteolysis. The work presented in this thesis begins with the ...

Cellular Communication in YeastsThe first life on our planet consisted of single-celled prokaryotic organisms that had limited interaction with each other. While some external signaling occurs between different species of single-celled organisms, the majority of signaling within bacteria and yeasts concerns only other members of the same species. The evolution of cellular communication is an absolute necessity for the development of multicellular organisms, and this innovation is thought to have required approximately 2.5 billion years to appear in early life forms.. Yeasts are single-celled eukaryotes, and therefore have a nucleus and organelles characteristic of more complex life forms. Comparisons of the genomes of yeasts, nematode worms, fruit flies, and humans illustrate the evolution of increasingly complex signaling systems that allow for the efficient inner workings that keep humans and other complex life forms functioning correctly..

The regulatory mechanisms of the inflammatory process in the atherosclerotic plaque are still not clearly understood. Stimulated T cells may have a key role in enhancing and perpetuating inflammation at the atherosclerotic site. They activate endothelial cells, macrophages and smooth muscle cells in the atherosclerotic plaque, not only via the production of soluble mediators, but also through cell-cell contact-mediated interactions (via membrane receptors and their ligands). Cell/cell contact between stimulated T lymphocytes and monocytes/macrophages and endothelial cells induces the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines (tumor necrosis factor-alpha, interleukin-6) and chemokines (interleukin-8, monocyte chemotactic factor-1). Thus, these interactions could play a relevant role in the disregulation of the inflammatory process in the atherosclerotic plaque, representing a novel mechanism of progression and complication of the atherosclerotic disease.

How it works: Rebuilding cell theory. Garcias early research disproved a long-standing hypothesis concerning this cellular feature.. Mammals nervous systems are uniquely equipped with myelination, which has been shown to increase conduction velocity, or the speed at which nerve cells pass signals. Low velocity is often associated with neurodegenerative diseases, so research exploring why could later have application in therapeutic technology.. In addition to myelination, cell size makes a big difference in conduction velocity - the bigger the nerve cells, the faster they can pass and receive signals. Garcias findings disproved a hypothesis that related myelination to this phenomenon.. The hypothesis, published in a 1992 edition of Cell, claimed that myelination causes a cellular process called phosphorylation which then causes an increase in the axonal diameter (width of the communicating part of a nerve cell), leading to faster nerve cell communication. Garcia found that myelination did ...

British Library EThOS: Characterisation of HIV-1 Cell-to-Cell Transfer across the Virological Synapse.British Library EThOS: Characterisation of HIV-1 Cell-to-Cell Transfer across the Virological Synapse.
HIV-1 is believed to spread by two mechanisms in an infected host: by cell-free virions and by cell-associated transmission. The mechanisms of HIV-1 cell-to-cell transmission were not well understood until the recent description of the virological synapse (VS). The VS is a specialised supramolecular structure, formed between an infected effector cell and a permissive target cell, to facilitate direct virus infection of the permissive cell. Direct cell-to-cell spread is probably an important mechanism in tissues densely populated with target cells, such as CD4+ T cells in lymph nodes and the GALT. Moreover, VS-mediated viral transfer may help the virus to hide from elements of the immune system, such as neutralising antibodies and complement. Many areas relating to HIV-1 cell-to-cell spread and VS function remain to be explored. Therefore, the aim of the project behind this thesis was to extend our initial molecular characterisation of the supramolecular structure of VS in T cells and to ...

Cell Communication - Causative Agent - ALPF Medical ResearchCell Communication - Causative Agent - ALPF Medical Research
Surface receptors are integral membrane proteins to which certain signal molecules bind. They generally span the cell membrane, connecting the outside of the cell with the inside, enabling the inner workings of the cell to sense and respond to signals outside of the cell. Each surface receptor is specific with respect to the compound or compounds it will bind; a molecule that can bind to a given receptor is called a ligand for that receptor. When a ligand binds to its surface receptor, the internal portion of the receptor becomes modified in some manner, effectively communicating to the cell that the ligand is present. This then elicits some type of response, such as chemotaxis. ■ chemotaxis, p. 65. Cells can alter the types of surface molecules they make, enabling them to respond only to signals that are relevant when the cell is in a certain location or developmental stage. For example, a dendritic cell in the tissues would respond differently to certain stimuli than one that has migrated to ...

Regenerative Medicine, Cell Bilology. With the recent progress in organ transplantation technology and stem-cell research, the practical application of regenerative therapy using stem cell-derivatives has come to public attention. To increase the feasibility of this new concept, however, kinetics and the functional expression of engrafted cells should be strictly controlled in well- organized 3-D tissues. So far, many researches have elucidated part of molecular mechanisms underlying the tissue morphogenesis to accumulate background information for successful cell transplantation. They include: 1) how nascent cells differentiate into functional ones;2) how they establish the proper polarity and the cell-cell junctional apparatus that enable cellular communications,;3) how they arrange functional multicellular structures; and 4) how they determine the overall size and control the shape of the tissue.

Impact of the Immune System on the Brain and Mental Health | Side EffectsImpact of the Immune System on the Brain and Mental Health | Side Effects
Most are aware that neurons send neurotransmitter signals to each other in circuits within the brain. My new book, The Secret Language of Cells, shows that similar conversations occur among all the cells in the body and these wide ranging conversations determine all physiological functions. While there are numerous examples of this cellular communication in the book - such as capillary cells sending directional signals for white blood cells to find an infection and capillaries instructing stem cells how to produce particular cells for the brain, this article will focus on a few ways that cellular conversations among immune cells and brain cells affect mental health. Two-way cellular conversations between traveling immune cells and stationary brain cells use signals that are sent as molecules, or molecules inside sacs, that are secreted into tissues, blood vessels, and cerebrospinal fluid. The signals can profoundly affect general cognition and memory, and are highly related to depression and ...

Antigen based immunotherapeutics aim to rehabilitate the immune system and prepare the human body to concur disease. Key factor in this biological process is the immune response via dendritic cells (DCs) that either turn on the immune response or actively dampen unwanted immune inflammation. Current antigen based therapies however still lack an effective response which is potent, antigen specific and durable, and can also rely on a favorable safety profile. Therefore, there is a clear need for improvements in this therapeutic class. GlycoDCTM dendritic cell targeting technology. The core of DC4Us proprietary GlycoDCTM technology is glycation of antigens to which we direct the immune response. Glycans are complex carbohydrate structures that form recognition elements for glycan-specific receptors that, upon recognition, mediate cellular communication.

In a mobile cellular communication system, adjacent basestations BS1-BS4 are assigned different selections of different frequency channels to communicate with mobiles in their cells (10, etc.). To improve system quality and capacity, a basestation selects a frequency channel which is not assigned to it or any neighbour station, and makes test communications on that frequency channel with mobiles (e.g. MS1) in its cell. The basestation assesses the potential performance of that frequency channel, and neighbour basestations can monitor for potential interference on that frequency channel. The information so gathered can be analysed by an operations maintenance station OMC.

Membrane proteins play critical roles in cellular communications and are the most popular drug targets, accounting for over a half of the FDA approved drugs. One particularly important example of membrane proteins is G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs), which constitute the largest and most diverse protein family in the human genome with over 800 members identified to date.[1] GPCRs are responsible for numerous cellular and physiological processes, including cell proliferation, differentiation, neurotransmission, development and apoptosis, and cancer growth and development. [2] Unsurprisingly, GPCRs are the largest family of membrane protein drug targets. A key task in studying the physiological functions of GPCRs and developing drugs targeting GPCRs is to measure the binding kinetics of ligands with GPCRs.. GPR39 receptor was studied against 3,4-bis-(2-imidazol-1-ylethoxy)-benzonitrile (AZ1395) [3] using SPRm 200. The GPR39 receptor is expressed in metabolic tissues including pancreatic ...

Evolution brings us incredible diversity in animal size and shape, but remarkably, our organs and limbs remain proportional to our body size. This entails an extraordinary level of coordination across different scales. How do organs measure and control their size? This is a crucial question that has remained long unresolved in Biology. We aim to answer it by looking at cells. We are focused on studying biophysical modes of cellular communication: Electrical Flows, Chemical Signalling and Mechanical Forces, with the goal of understanding how organ growth information is encoded. We use the zebrafish larva as an in vivo model, as it allows for optimal quantitative live imaging and amenable genetics. Importantly, zebrafish regenerate their organs! This allows us to search for common rules of growth: not only in Development, but also in Regeneration. Because of this, we can choose to perform our experiments with Fast or Slow growth rates - at Steady state or Out of Equilibrium scenarios - achieving ...

Junctional communication is induced in migrating capillary endothelial cells. | JCBJunctional communication is induced in migrating capillary endothelial cells. | JCB
Using an in vitro model in which a confluent monolayer of capillary endothelial cells is mechanically wounded, gap junction-mediated intercellular communication has been studied by loading the cells with the fluorescent dye, Lucifer Yellow. Approximately 40-50% of the cells in a nonwounded confluent monolayer were coupled in groups of four to five cells (basal level). Basal levels of communication were also observed in sparse and preconfluent cultures, but were reduced in postconfluent monolayers. 30 min after wounding, coupling was markedly reduced between cells lining the wound. Communication at the wound was partially reestablished by 2 h, exceeded basal levels after 6 h and reached a maximum after 24 h, at which stage approximately 90% of the cells were coupled in groups of six to seven cells. When the wound had closed (after 8 d), the increase in communication was no longer observed. Induction of wound-associated communication was unaffected by exposure of the cells to the DNA synthesis ...

The researchers believe targeting the mechanism may lead to new therapies for the symptoms of motor neurone disease.. Otago neurobiologist Associate Professor Ian McLennan and his Aberdeen colleagues have discovered that a protein known as transforming growth factor beta 2 (TGF-β2) appears to regulate how motor neurons send signals to neighbouring brain cells.. Their findings are newly published in the prestigious US journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS).. Associate Professor McLennan says the discovery of the TGF-β2proteins previously invisible role in regulating brain cell communication surprised the team.. We did not predict this, and the finding fundamentally alters our understanding of how communication between cells in the brains motor system is controlled. It is also likely that this mechanism plays a role in other brain signalling systems.. Historically it was thought that the information flow from cell to cell was controlled by the number of quanta, or ...

1. Segments of mouse pancreatic or exorbital lacrimal gland were superfused with saline solutions. Under visual control two micro-electrodes were inserted into neighbouring cells within the same acinus or into neighbouring acini. Cell to cell electrical coupling was assessed by injecting rectangular current pulses through one electrode and measuring the electrotonic potential change in the same cell (V(1)) and in the neighbouring cell (V(2)). Acetylcholine (ACh) was added locally to impaled acini by micro-ionophoresis from an extracellular micropipette.2. Exposure of the tissues to a Krebs solution equilibrated with 100% CO(2) caused a rapid increase in the size of electrotonic potential changes in the current injection cell and disappearance of the electrotonic potential changes in a neighbouring acinus or cell. This electrical uncoupling of previously coupled cells was rapidly reversible upon return to a solution equilibrated with 95% O(2) and 5% CO(2).3. Reduction of electrical intercellular ...

New mode of cellular communication discovered in the brainNew mode of cellular communication discovered in the brain
16.07.2013 Researchers at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU) have discovered a new form of communication between different cell types in the brain. Nerve cells interact with neighboring glial cells, which results in a transfer of protein and genetic information. Nerve cells are thus protected against stressful growth conditions. The study undertaken by the Mainz-based cell biologists shows how reciprocal communication between the different cell types contributes to neuronal integrity. Their results have been recently published in the journal PLOS Biology. Brain function is determined by the communication between electrically excitable neurons and the surrounding glial cells, which perform many tasks in the brain. Oligodendrocytes are a type of glial cell and these form an insulating myelin sheath around the axons of neurons. In addition to providing this protective insulation, oligodendrocytes also help sustain neurons in other ways that are not yet fully understood. If this support ...

Abstract :. The development and function of multicellular organisms relies on the ordered communication of cells that function in networks and circuits. Our understanding of cellular communication and its physiological consequences hinges on the ability to modulate specific signals while monitoring effects in intact tissues and behaving animals. In our laboratory, we combine synthetic biology and cell biology to modulate the communication between cells and ultimately intervene with physiology. To achieve this goal, we re-engineer molecular components of the mammalian cellular communication machinery, currently in particular those components that control cell survival, to be responsive to new synthetic stimuli. These stimuli are novel ligands or, more recently, light in optogenetics, which offers control in space and time. For instance, we have recently developed receptor tyrosine kinases, such as the receptors for neurotrophic factors or EGF, that are activated by blue or red light in the ...

Leukemia cell to endothelial cell communication via exosomal miRNAs | Read by QxMDLeukemia cell to endothelial cell communication via exosomal miRNAs | Read by QxMD
Recent findings indicate that specific microRNAs (miRNAs), such as those of the miR-17-92 cluster, may be responsible for regulating endothelial gene expression during tumor angiogenesis. Secreted miRNAs enclosed in exosomes also have an important role in cell-cell communication. To elucidate whether miRNAs secreted from neoplastic cells transfer into endothelial cells and are functionally active in the recipient cells, we investigated the effect of exosomal miRNAs derived from leukemia cells (K562) on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). As K562 cells released the miR-17-92 cluster, especially miR-92a, into the extracellular environment, K562 cells, transfected with Cy3-labeled pre-miR-92a, were co-cultured with HUVECs. Cy3-miR-92a derived from K562 cells was detected in the cytoplasm of HUVECs, and the Cy3-miR-92a co-localized with the signals of an exosomal marker, CD63. The expression of integrin α5, a target gene for miR-92a, was significantly reduced in HUVECs by exosomal ...

We have identified the liver-regulating protein (LRP), a cell surface protein involved in the maintenance of hepatocyte differentiation when cocultured with rat liver epithelial cells (RLEC). LRP was defined by immunoreactivity to a monoclonal antibody (mAb L8) prepared from RLEC. mAb L8 specifically detected two polypeptides of 85 and 73 kD in immunoprecipitation of both hepatocyte- and RLEC-iodinated plasma membranes. The involvement of these polypeptides, which are integral membrane proteins, in cell interaction-mediated regulation of hepatocytes was assessed by evaluating the perturbing effects of the antibody on cocultures with RLEC. Several parameters characteristic of differentiated hepatocytes were studied, such as liver-specific and house-keeping gene expression, cytoskeletal organization and deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM). An early cytoskeletal disturbance was evidenced and a marked alteration of hepatocyte functional capacity was observed in the presence of the antibody, ...

Search Results for tumour cell-tumour cell communication | SciendoSearch Results for tumour cell-tumour cell communication | Sciendo
The review describes the role of cells of extracellular matrix (ECM) as a source of neoplastic outgrowths additional to the original tumour. The cells undergo a spontaneous transformation or stimulation by the original tumour through intercellular signals, e.g. through Shh protein (sonic hedgehog). Additionally, cells of an inflammatory infiltrate, which frequently accompany malignant tumours and particularly carcinomas, may regulate tumour cell behaviour. This is either by restricting tumour proliferation or, inversely, by induction and stimulation of the proliferation of another tumour cell type, e.g. mesenchymal cells. The latter type of tumour may involve formation of histologically differentiated stromal tumours (GIST), which probably originate from interstitial cells of Cajal in the alimentary tract. Occasionally, e.g. in gastric carcinoma, proliferation involves lymphoid follicles and lymphocytes of GALT (gut-associated lymphoid tissue), which gives rise to lymphoma. The process is ...

Clone REA718 recognizes the human integrin β5 antigen, a 95 kDa glycoprotein single-pass type I membrane protein. Integrins are a family of transmembrane receptors that mediate adhesion of cells to extracellular matrices, as well as intercellular interactions.

CD95 Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody (ER1902-56) - HUABIOCD95 Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody (ER1902-56) - HUABIO
Cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL)-mediated cytotoxicity constitutes an important component of specific effector mechanisms in immuno-surveillance against virus-infected or transformed cells. Two mechanisms appear to account for this activity, one of which is the perforin-based process. Independently, a FAS-based mechanism involves the transducing molecule FAS (also designated APO-1) and its ligand (FAS-L). The human FAS protein is a cell surface glycoprotein that belongs to a family of receptors that includes CD40, nerve growth factor receptors and tumor necrosis factor receptors. The FAS antigen is expressed on a broad range of lymphoid cell lines, certain of which undergo apoptosis in response to treatment with antibody to FAS. These findings strongly imply that targeted cell death is potentially mediated by the intercellular interactions of FAS with its ligand or effectors, and that FAS may be critically involved in CTL-mediated cytotoxicity.. ...

Effective method for correcting various CNS pathologies developing under oxygen deficiency - Lobachevsky UniversityEffective method for correcting various CNS pathologies developing under oxygen deficiency - Lobachevsky University
Hypoxia is a key factor that accompanies most brain pathologies, including ischemia and neurodegenerative diseases. Reduced oxygen concentration results in irreversible changes in nerve cell metabolism that entails cell death and destruction of intercellular interactions. Since neural networks are responsible for the processing, storage and transmission of information in the brain, the loss of network elements can lead to dysfunction of the central nervous system and, consequently, the development of neurological deficiency and the patients severe disability.. This is the reason why the worlds neurobiological community is currently involved in an active search for compounds that can prevent the death of nerve cells and support their functional activity under stress.. According to Maria Vedunova, Director of the Institute of Biology and Biomedicine at Lobachevsky University (UNN), the Institutes researchers propose to use the bodys own potential to combat hypoxia and its consequences..

The purpose of this study was to examine student influence upon the teacher within the context of a bidirectional model of interaction. The possibility of using the teachers motivational structure as a means of explaining and predicting the occurence of student influence was also considered. -- The theoretical framework for the study was developed from a review of the literature. The key components of the model were: the teachers predispositions, including their motivational structure, the objective situation, and the definition of the situation. Presumably, the teachers behavior would be controlled by their definition of the situation, which would be a function of the predispositional structure and the objective situation. -- The interaction between the teacher and the students in three elementary classrooms was studied. These teachers were chosen from a sample of 54 teachers, who had first been categorized into three groups, on the basis of a Q-Sort. Thus, there was one teacher to represent ...

Researchers at The University of Queensland, working to gain a better understanding of how brain cells work, have discovered the underlying mechanism of a rare genetic mutation that can cause epilepsy.. Dr Victor Anggono from UQs Queensland Brain Institute said his team made the ground-breaking findings while researching nerve cell communications, which are an important process in normal brain function.. Were both excited and astounded to make such an important contribution to the field of cellular and molecular neuroscience, Dr Anggono said.. He stressed that the mutation was extremely rare, with only one reported case in the world to date.. Dr Anggonos team studied protein structures, called receptors, that are attached to cell surfaces to make the discovery.. It turns out that this particular mutation causes receptors in brain cells to behave differently, resulting in an imbalance in brain cell communication - and that can lead to disorders, he said.. For example, cells that talk ...

Most immune cell communication takes place by intercellular transfer of cytokines or the contact-dependent interaction of surface receptors in immunological synapses. In this issue of the European Journal of Immunology, Gardell and Parker (Eur. J. Immunol. 2017, 47, 41-50) point to a new, hybrid mechanism for Th1-cell delivery of help to B cells, based on contact-dependent CD40L transfer. The transfer process and its specificity are both cell contact dependent and antigen dependent. CD40 expression is also required on the B-cell surface to capture the CD40L presented by the Th1 cell. While further studies are needed to confirm the phenomenon in vivo and to test the role of transferred CD40L in other aspects of T-cell help, this study provides an exceptional take-off point and makes excellent use of mouse genetics to work out some possible rules for B cells being able to order help to go.

The members of the IgLON superfamily of cell adhesion molecules facilitate fundamental cellular communication during brain development, maintain functional brain circuitry, and are associated with several neuropsychiatric disorders. Usage of alternative promoter-specific 1a and 1b mRNA isoforms in Lsamp, Opcml, Ntm and the single promoter of Negr1 in the mouse and human brain has been previously described. To determine the precise spatiotemporal expression dynamics of Lsamp, Opcml, Ntm isoforms and Negr1, in the developing brain, we generated isoform-specific RNA probes and carried out in situ hybridization in the developing (embryonic, E10.5, 13.5, 17; post natal, P0) and adult mouse brains. We show that promoter-specific expression of IgLONs is established early during pallial development (at E10.5), where it remains throughout its differentiation through adulthood. In the diencephalon, midbrain and hindbrain, strong expression patterns are initiated a few days later and begin fading after birth,

In the present work, we report evidence that in addition to its role on the proliferation of pancreatic progenitor cells, the mesenchyme is crucial in controlling the timing of pancreatic β-cell differentiation. When we cultured rat embryonic pancreatic epithelium in the absence of its surrounding mesenchyme, we found that Ngn3 expression was turned on rapidly and then turned off a few days later, in keeping with the reported in vivo pattern (15,25). Our filter-separation experiments indicate that the mesenchyme-induced delay in Ngn3 induction requires direct contact between the epithelium and the mesenchyme. This result fits in with recent data indicating that direct cell-cell contact between epithelial and mesenchymal cells suppresses β-cell formation (26). We also found that Ngn3 expression occurred far earlier without mesenchyme, within a few hours compared with 3 days with mesenchyme either in vitro or in vivo. This acceleration in Ngn3 induction resembles the pancreatic phenotype of mice ...

Wonky Waves Allow Cancer Cells To Spread - ScienceAGoGoWonky Waves Allow Cancer Cells To Spread - ScienceAGoGo
The waves are said to be produced in direct response to the presence of epidermal growth factor (EGF), and last approximately 10 - 20 minutes before vanishing. Wave cells have become a hot topic of late, as researchers suspect that they play an important role in the transmission and regulation of normal cellular communication.. Under normal circumstances, waves are responsible for selectively collecting growth-promoting proteins and directing them into the inner structure of the cell. This process results in a reorganization of the cells outer infrastructure, where it forms a flexible foot-like structure (lamellipodia) which then allows the cell to move and dock with corresponding epidermal growth factor receptors (EGFR). Usually, the wave neutralizes or moderates the internalized growth protein, but in cancer cells, where the wave is either malfunctioning or not present, metastatic cancer occurs as a result of unregulated EGF and EGFR interaction.. These findings have broad implications ...

Signal transduction is the molecular basis for cellular communication. Complex networks of intracellular molecules enable cells to receive signals from their environment and to modify their behavior in response to these signals. Signaling molecules are interconnected, and depending on how they are linked together they can form different types of networks. We have recently described a novel network of proteins that becomes activated by increases in cell sodium permeability and that regulates active sodium transport. Because each component of this sodium-sensing network so far described have been independently associated with multiple and essential cell functions, our work on the network topology and modeling is of importance because it will help us to understand the networks role and complexity when transforming the sodium signal into transcription activation and gene expression leding to changes in myocardial- and/or renal cells growth..

Junctions25
  • Cell junction can happen in many forms, but the three main forms of cell junction are gap junctions, tight junctions, and desmosomes. (wikipedia.org)
  • Gap junctions have a very crucial job that cause a tube to form between the 2 cells allowing in the transport of ions and water. (wikipedia.org)
  • Desmosome cell junctions physically hold the cells together, but do not allow the cells to pass materials between each other like in gap junction. (wikipedia.org)
  • Desmosome junctions connect the cell with a thread like substance that also connect to the cytoskeleton aiding in the structural support of the cell. (wikipedia.org)
  • Cell Communication & Adhesion (formerly Cell Adhesion & Communication) is an academic journal that publishes review articles on intercellular communication, intercellular junctions and families of adhesion receptors and counter receptors from diverse biological systems. (wikipedia.org)

(wikipedia.org)
  • To communicate with its neighbors, animal cells use gap junctions which are symplasmic connections through which molecules can diffuse from one cell to another. (news-medical.net)
  • There is, however, another means for nerve cells to communicate with one another, called gap junctions. (scienceblog.com)
  • Gap junctions allow electric current to flow directly from one cell to another, without involving the release and diffusion of transmitter chemicals, and may be thought of as "short circuits" linking or cutting across the pathways through which cells normally communicate. (scienceblog.com)
  • additionally, gap junctions in mammals have been studied that exist between nerve cells that produce inhibition - that is, between cells that are not primarily involved in epileptic seizures. (scienceblog.com)
  • Gap junctions between excitatory cells in the mammalian brain have not traditionally been part of the thinking of neuroscientists. (scienceblog.com)
  • that is, gap junctions are not confined to the cells that produce inhibition. (scienceblog.com)
  • Furthermore, gap junctions between excitatory cells were predicted to occur at an unexpected place: the axons of the cells (the axon is the part of the cell that allows propagation of a signal over long distances). (scienceblog.com)
  • Animal cells are able to pass information cell-to-cell though flexible openings in cell walls called gap junctions. (gardenguides.com)
  • 22 Cardiac myocytes are communicated by hydrophilic channels (gap junctions) that permit the electrical synchronization and flow of chemical messages between cardiac cells. (ahajournals.org)
  • Another important focus of this study was to investigate the role of "gap junctions," small protein pores which connect adjacent cells. (hindawi.com)
  • In addition, areas in which two cells formed gap junctions were found. (hindawi.com)
  • Electric signalling occurs in the central nervous system and direct cell-cell contacts are formed by so-called gap junctions, small protein tunnels [ 1 ], which consist of different connexin isoforms providing the exchange of ions, small molecules, or potentials [ 2 - 4 ]. (hindawi.com)
  • Tunneling nanotubes (TNT) represent a novel type of intercellular communication machinery, which differs from the secretion of signaling molecules and the signal transmission through gap or synaptic junctions between adjacent cells. (frontiersin.org)
  • Cells also signal through gap junctions. (ukessays.com)
  • Historically it was thought that the information flow from cell to cell was controlled by the number of quanta, or packets, of neurotransmitter chemicals released at any one time across specialised cell junctions known as synapses, he says. (healthcanal.com)
  • Thus, glucocorticoids through development of gap junctions enabled establishment of intercellular communication that could be stimulated by insulin and glucagon in cultured fetal hepatocytes. (wiley.com)
  • When cells cease to communicate via 'gap junctions' (GJs), stem cell characteristics and autonomous behavior are created. (uni-heidelberg.de)
  • Although in vascular endothelial cells adhesive junctions account for the integrity of the vessel wall, they are not to be considered as static molecular structures that function as intercellular glue. (ahajournals.org)
  • In the past years, a large effort was made by several groups to decipher the molecular organization of intercellular junctions in endothelial cells. (ahajournals.org)
Proteins28
  • Requirement of Fra proteins for communication channels between cells in the filamentous nitrogen-fixing cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. (pnas.org)
  • The signal can cross the membrane itself, or it can interact with receptor proteins that contact both the interior and exterior of a cell. (wikipedia.org)
  • When these signals are transmitted between proteins, the proteins are modified creating a signaling pathway that can lead to a specific part of the cell or branch out sending the signal to multiple parts of the cell. (wikipedia.org)
  • A proteins direct cellular response when it reaches its destination is to begin to alter the behavior of the cell. (wikipedia.org)
  • Inhibitors of DNA binding and cell differentiation (Id) proteins are members of the large family of the helix-loop-helix (HLH) transcription factors, but they lack any DNA-binding motif. (biomedcentral.com)
  • Identifying the messengers -- a large family of proteins that carry genetic signals and switch genes on and off -- and their roles in communicating at a distance has implications for the development of new strategies to treat diseases caused by malfunctioning genes or disrupted pathways of communication. (eurekalert.org)
  • Communication and signalling within cells is controlled by minute changes to the proteins involved. (uu.nl)
  • The phosphorylation of one or more types of proteins then starts a chain reaction, which leads to changes in the cell's activities, such as cell division, migration or death. (uu.nl)
  • The researchers therefore decided to first develop a method for studying the histidine communication channel in bacteria (the Escherichia coli, see image), because they have fewer proteins and enzymes. (uu.nl)
  • The neurotransmitters diffuse across a tiny space between the nerve cells, and then bind to proteins (called "receptors") on other nerve cells. (scienceblog.com)
  • But the proteins that control this process are largely thought to function autonomously, inside individual cells. (umassmed.edu)
  • The discovery came after Desiderio and his team used biochemical "bait" to fish for candidate proteins that physically bind to TFII-I. The fishing expedition returned one protein known to control when and how much calcium a cell takes in. (medindia.net)
  • The functioning of GPCRs in the cell depends on how the receptors interact with different proteins in the cell. (eurekalert.org)
  • A cell might change its shape (the cellular skeleton does this), move, make new proteins, or change some part of its metabolism or cycle (such as entering into the next part of its mitotic or meiotic-cell multiplication -cycle). (everything2.com)
  • Plant cells share a strange and surprising kinship with animal neurons: many plant cells have proteins that closely resemble glutamate receptors, which help to relay nerve signals from one neuron to another. (eurekalert.org)
  • Their findings also suggest that GLRs rely on another group of proteins, called "cornichon" proteins, to shuttle GLRs to different locations and regulate GLR activity within each cell. (eurekalert.org)
  • With the help of cornichon proteins, GLRs act as valves that carefully manage the concentration of calcium ions--a vital aspect of many cell communication pathways--within various structures inside the cell, the study found. (eurekalert.org)
  • In their experiments with Arabidopsis pollen cells, Feijó's team found that cornichon proteins actively shuttled GLRs from one location to another within the cell, enabling various compartments inside the cell to maintain different calcium ion concentrations. (eurekalert.org)
  • Proteins act as regulators to the flow of molecules between plant cells. (gardenguides.com)
  • More is being learned about the these proteins, which ones are available to the plant cell and exactly how they work to prohibit some molecules from passing through plasmodesmata while allowing access to others. (gardenguides.com)
  • According to Professor Maule, "We are sure that plasmodesmata will contain many important proteins but our identification of this new class already means that we know now how we might regulate molecular flow from cell to cell. (gardenguides.com)
  • Signaling pathways can get very complicated very quickly because most cellular proteins can affect different downstream events, depending on the conditions within the cell. (oercommons.org)
  • It could be shown that connexins, the gap junction proteins, were located around cell nuclei, where they await their transport to the cell membrane. (hindawi.com)
  • When mating factor binds to cell-surface receptors in other yeast cells that are nearby, they stop their normal growth cycles and initiate a cell signaling cascade that includes protein kinases and GTP-binding proteins that are similar to G-proteins. (oercommons.org)
  • Exosomes, membrane vesicles of endocytic origin released by all cells (both healthy and diseased), ranging in size from 30 to 150 nm, transport all the main biomolecules, including lipids, proteins, DNAs, messenger RNAs and microRNA, and perform intercellular transfer of components, locally and systemically. (frontiersin.org)
  • At left, in a normal Arabidopsis thaliana pollen grain (inside the dashed line), glutamate receptor-like proteins (green) are located in the sperm cells (arrow). (phys.org)
  • Endothelial cells are maintained in contact to one another by a complex network of transmembrane adhesion proteins anchored to the actin cytoskeleton. (ahajournals.org)
  • Using an antipeptide serum that recognizes connexin43, we demonstrate that this protein is phosphorylated on serine and tyrosine residues in avian and mammalian cells expressing activated src proteins. (biomedsearch.com)
Signals42
  • Cells transmit and receive signals acquired from fellow cells or by the environment surrounding the cell. (wikipedia.org)
  • The signals are transmitted across the cell membrane to prompt a response. (wikipedia.org)
  • Signals pass from protein to protein when the signal travels through the cell membrane entering the cell. (wikipedia.org)
  • Cells can assimilate multiple signals and every cell collects a multifaceted combination of signals that all require the cell to respond simultaneously transmitting different signals though different signaling pathways. (wikipedia.org)
  • Gap junction tubes help the cells to spread electrochemical signals from cell to cell. (wikipedia.org)
  • Electrochemical signals are the product of action potentials that occur in neurons and cardiac cells. (wikipedia.org)
