Patterned Anchorage to the Apical Extracellular Matrix Defines Tissue Shape in the Developing Appendages of Drosophila.
(2015-08-10)How tissues acquire their characteristic shape is a fundamental unresolved question in biology. While genes have been characterized that control local mechanical forces to elongate epithelial tissues, genes controlling ... -
The Spectrin cytoskeleton regulates the Hippo signalling pathway.
(2015-04-01)The Spectrin cytoskeleton is known to be polarised in epithelial cells, yet its role remains poorly understood. Here, we show that the Spectrin cytoskeleton controls Hippo signalling. In the developing Drosophila wing and ... -
Low health literacy predicts decline in physical function among older adults: Findings from the LitCog cohort study
(2015-01-01)Background: Limited health literacy is associated with worse physical function in cross-sectional studies. We aimed to determine if health literacy is a risk factor for decline in physical function among older adults. ... -
DIAP2 functions as a mechanism-based regulator of drICE that contributes to the caspase activity threshold in living cells.
(2007-12-31)In addition to their well-known function in apoptosis, caspases are also important in several nonapoptotic processes. How caspase activity is restrained and shut down under such nonapoptotic conditions remains unknown. ...
