In model organisms, resistance to inhibitors of cholinesterase 8 (Ric-8), a G protein alpha (G alpha) subunit guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF), functions orient mitotic spindles during asymmetric cell divisions; however, whether Ric-8A has any role in mammalian division is unknown. We show here that and alpha(i) function the metaphase spindle adherent cells. During mitosis, localized at cortex, poles, centromeres, central spindle, midbody. Pertussis toxin proved be useful tool these...
There is a body of evidence suggesting that Ca2+ handling proteins assemble into signaling complexes required for fine regulation signals, events regulate variety critical cellular processes. Canonical transient receptor potential (TRPC) and Orai have both been proposed to form Ca2+-permeable channels mediating entry upon agonist stimulation. A number studies demonstrated inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP3Rs) interact with plasma membrane TRPC channels; however, at present there no...
Mammalian cells accumulate Ca2+ into agonist-sensitive acidic organelles, vesicles that possess a vacuolar proton-ATPase. Acidic stores include secretory granules and lysosome-related organelles. Current evidence clearly indicates participate in cell signaling function, including the activation of store-operated entry human platelets upon depletion stores, although mechanism underlying controlled by remains unclear. STIM1 has been presented as endoplasmic reticulum sensor, but its role...
Sensitive, specific, and noninvasive detection of angiogenesis would be helpful in discovering new strategies for the treatment cardiovascular diseases. Recently, we reported <sup>64</sup>Cu-labeled C-type atrial natriuretic factor (CANF) fragment detecting upregulation peptide clearance receptor (NPR-C) with PET on atherosclerosis-like lesions an animal model. However, it is unknown whether NPR-C present overexpressed during angiogenesis. The goal this study was to develop a novel...
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death worldwide. PET has potential to provide information on biology and metabolism atherosclerotic plaques. Natriuretic peptides (NPs) have potent antiproliferative antimigratory effects vascular smooth-muscle cells (VSMCs) and, in atherosclerosis, participate remodeling, which expression NP clearance receptors (NPR-Cs) upregulated both endothelium VSMCs. <b>Methods:</b> We investigated a C-type atrial natriuretic factor (C-ANF) image...
The store-operated Ca2+ entry-associated regulatory factor (SARAF) has recently been identified as a STIM1 protein that facilitates slow Ca2+-dependent inactivation of entry (SOCE). Both the channels and store-independent arachidonate-regulated (ARC) are regulated by STIM1. In present study, we show that, in addition to its location endoplasmic reticulum, SARAF is constitutively expressed plasma membrane, where it can interact with membrane (PM)-resident ARC forming subunits neuroblastoma...
