Cytochalasin D Colchicine Cytoskeleton Microtubules Prolactin Mammary epithelial differentiation Many aspects of cell physiology, including cellular differentiation, cell cycle progression, suppression of apoptosis and migration, depend on signals being received through adhesion complexes ( Aplin...

...Carrie R. Cowan; W. Zacheus Cande Telomere clustering, the defining feature of the bouquet, is an almost universal feature of meiotic prophase, yet its mechanism remains unknown. The microtubule-depolymerizing agent colchicine was found to inhibit bouquet formation. Telomeres in colchicine-treated...

.../centrioles for the spindle microtubules. When replicating tachyzoites were treated with 0.5 μM oryzalin or 1.0 mM colchicine they retained the capacity to form a spindle and undergo nuclear division. Although these parasites could complete budding,they lost the bulk of their subpellicular microtubules...

... an association of CD43 with the cytoskeleton. Some of the capped cells exhibited a front-tail polarization with CD43 caps located in the uropod at the rear of the cell. Surprisingly, colchicine and the chemotactic factor fNLPNTL which induce neutrophil polarization associated with cell motility, also resulted...
