Published: 15 April 2010
.... Together, this subgroup of actin-regulatory proteins represents the canonical pathway of stress-fiber formation. Here, we show that the Rif GTPase is an alternative trigger of stress-fiber formation in epithelial cells. Rif is distantly related to RhoA; however, we show that the two proteins share a common...

... possible by an intracellular complex of proteins, which links to actin filaments and controls signalling cascades that regulate cytoskeletal rearrangements. We have identified stress-fibre-associated focal adhesions that change their composition during tissue morphogenesis. Early expression of αPS1βPS...

...Tamara Cavanna; Eva Pokorná; Pavel Vesely; Colin Gray; Daniel Zicha We compared a non-metastasising sarcoma cell population with three related populations of increasing metastatic potential. The metastatic cells in vitro exhibited a significantly reduced incidence of actin stress fibres...

...Athanassios Dovas; Atsuko Yoneda; John R. Couchman Syndecan-4 is a ubiquitously expressed transmembrane heparan sulphate proteoglycan acting in concert with integrins in the formation of focal adhesions and stress fibres. Signalling events studied thus far suggest the formation of a ternary complex...

... a rapid increase in stress-fibre formation in intestinal epithelial cells. This effect was mimicked by cytotoxic necrotising factor-1 (CNF-1)-induced activation of RhoA,overexpression of constitutively active RhoA (L63-RhoA) and phorbol-ester-induced activation of protein kinase C (PKC). In accordance...

... orientation nearly parallel to the long axis of the wound. Using Fourier Transform analysis techniques, an orientation index (OI) was calculated to quantitate global fiber orientation at each time point. Analysis of variance demonstrated a significant change (P ≤ 0.001) in overall stress fiber orientation...

... in such cells were replaced by foci of polymerised actin, which colocalised with concentrations of nuclei. Injection of increasing numbers of nuclei between 3×10 3 and 1.2 ×10 4 caused fragmentation of stress fibres in an increasing proportion of cells, whereas injection of less than 3× 10 3 caused no obvious...

...) and Coomassie Brilliant Blue (CBB). More specifically, close contacts and focal contacts are resolved in living 3T3 cells, and features of the nucleus, the cytoskeleton and extracellular matrix are resolved in both NBB- and CBB-stained cells. The focal contacts and associated stress fibres are clearly imaged...
