Abstract:
Rho GTPases are involved in homing and mobilization of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells due to their impact on cytoskeleton remodeling. We have previously shown that inhibition of Rho, Rac and Cdc42 clearly impairs adhesion of normal and leukemic hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPC) to fibronectin and migration in a three-dimensional stromal cell model. Here, we identified the Ras GTPase-Activating Protein SH3 Domain-Binding Protein (G3BP) as a target gene of Rho GTPases and analysed its role in regulating HPC motility. Overexpression of G3BP significantly enhanced adhesion of murine 32

Abstract:
Using biochemical assays to determine the activation state of Rho-like GTPases, we show that the guanine nucleotide exchange factor Tiam1 functions as a specific activator of Rac but not Cdc42 or Rho in NIH3T3 fibroblasts. Activation of Rac by Tiam1 induces an epithelial-like morphology with functional cadherin-based adhesions and inhibits migration of fibroblasts. This epithelial phenotype is characterized by Rac-mediated effects on Rho activity. Transient PDGF-induced as well as sustained Rac activation by Tiam1 or V12Rac downregulate Rho activity. We found that Cdc42 also downregulates Rho

Abstract:
Rho-family GTPases regulate various aspects of cell function by controlling cytoskeletal changes; however, their spatial regulation within the cells remains largely unknown. To understand this regulation, we have studied the spatiotemporal activity of Rho-family GTPases in migrating cells and growth factor-stimulated cells by using probes based on the principle of fluorescence resonance energy transfer. In migrating fibroblasts and epithelial cells, the level of RhoA activity is high both at the contractile tail and at the leading edge, whereas Rac1 and Cdc42 activities are high only at the le

Abstract:
Development, angiogenesis, wound healing, and metastasis all involve the movement of cells in response to changes in the extracellular environment. To determine whether caveolin-1 plays a role in cell migration, we have used fibroblasts from knockout mice. Caveolin-1–deficient cells lose normal cell polarity, exhibit impaired wound healing, and have decreased Rho and increased Rac and Cdc42 GTPase activities. Directional persistency of migration is lost, and the cells show an impaired response to external directional stimuli. Both Src inactivation and p190RhoGAP knockdown restore the wild-type

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The bacterial toxin Yersinia outer protein T (YopT) is a cysteine protease that cleaves Rho GTPases immediately upstream of a carboxyl-terminal isoprenylcysteine. By clipping off the lipid anchor, YopT releases Rho GTPases from membranes, resulting in rounding up of mammalian cells in culture. The proteolytic activity of YopT depends on the isoprenylation of the cysteine within the carboxyl-terminal CaaX motif, a reaction carried out by geranylgeranyltransferase type I. The CaaX motif (where “a” indicates aliphatic amino acids) of Rho proteins undergoes two additional processing steps

Rho GTPases (Rac, Rho, and Cdc42) play important roles in regulating cell function through their ability to coordinate the actin cytoskeleton, modulate the formation of signaling reactive oxidant species, and control gene transcription. Activation of Rho GTPase signaling pathways requires the regulated release of Rho GTPases from RhoGDI complexes, followed by their reuptake after membrane cycling. We show here that Src kinase binds and phosphorylates RhoGDI both in vitro and in vivo at Tyr156. Analysis of Rho GTPase–RhoGDI complexes using in vitro assays of complexation and in vivo by coimmuno

The Rnd proteins, Rnd1, Rnd2, and Rnd3/RhoE, have been recently identified as new members of the Rho family of GTPases, and expression of Rnd1 or Rnd3 in fibroblasts causes the disassembly of actin stress fibers and the retraction of the cell body to produce extensively branching cellular processes. Here we have performed a yeast two-hybrid screening by using Rnd1 as bait and identified a novel protein that specifically binds to Rnd GTPases. We named this protein Socius. Socius directly binds

ABSTRACT The serine/threonine kinase PAK4 is an effector molecule for the Rho GTPase Cdc42. PAK4 differs from other members of the PAK family in both sequence and function. Previously we have shown that an important function of this kinase is to mediate the induction of filopodia in response to activated Cdc42. Since previous characterization of PAK4 was carried out only with the wild-type kinase, we have generated a constitutively active mutant of the kinase to determine whether it has other functions. Expression of activated PAK4 in fibroblasts led to a transient induction of filopodia, whic

Rho GTPases play a key role in regulating the migration of many cell types including astrocytes. Astrocytcs are relatively poor migrating cells, whereas, gliomas, can be highly invasive, infiltrating the surrounding tissue and spreading difftisely in the brain due, in part, to their highly motile behaviour. This thesis investigates the aberrant migration of three human glioma cell lines (U373, U138, U87) and, using microinjection techniques, it is shown that the small GTPase Rac is essential for the migration of astrocytes as well as for the three glioma cell lines.

Osteoarthritis is an inflammation-related disease that progressively destroys joint cartilage. This disease causes pain and stiffness of the joints, and at advanced stages, limitations to the movement or bending of injured joints. Therefore, it often restricts daily activities and the ability to work. Currently, there is no cure to prevent its progression, although certain damaged joints, such as fingers, knees and hips, can be treated with joint replacement surgeries. However, joint replacement surgeries of larger joints are very invasive operations and the joint replacements have a limited l

Cell migration is achieved by the dynamic feedback interactions between traction forces generated by the cell and exerted onto the underlying extracellular matrix (ECM), and intracellular mechano-chemical signaling pathways, e.g., Rho GTPase (RhoA, Rac1, and Cdc42) activities [1,2,3]. These components are differentially distributed within a cell, and thus the coordination between tractions and mechanotransduction (i.e, RhoA and Rac1 activities) must be implemented at a precise spatial and temporal order to achieve optimized, directed cell migration [4,5].
