Published in 2017 at "Biophysical Journal"

DOI: 10.1016/j.bpj.2016.11.119

Abstract: E-mail: [email protected]: http://umr168.curie.fr/en/Sykes-groupCell deformations are part of many vital processes such as division, motility orintracellular transport. They result from the continuous re-organization of the actin cytoskeleton underneath the membrane. In order to unveil how biochemical… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Trends in cell biology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.tcb.2018.04.008

Abstract: Glia maturation factor (GMF) has recently been established as a regulator of the actin cytoskeleton with a unique role in remodeling actin network architecture. Conserved from yeast to mammals, GMF is one of five members… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Nature Communications"

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-025-61438-1

Abstract: Epithelial tissues withstand external stresses while maintaining structural stability. Bicellular junctions and the actomyosin network support epithelial integrity, packing and remodelling. While their role in development and disease are well studied, their synergistic impact on… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Scientific Reports"

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-62942-8

Abstract: The dynamics of actin networks is modulated by a machinery consisting of actin binding proteins that control the turnover of filaments in space and time. To study this complex orchestration, in vitro reconstitution approaches strive… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Molecular Biology of the Cell"

DOI: 10.1091/mbc.e18-01-0061

Abstract: How mechanical stress applied to the actin network modifies actin turnover has attracted considerable attention. Actomyosin exerts the major force on the actin network, which has been implicated in actin stability regulation. However, direct monitoring… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Journal Of Experimental Botany"

DOI: 10.1093/jxb/erx269

Abstract: In plant cells, molecular connections link the cell wall-plasma membrane-actin cytoskeleton to form a continuum. It is hypothesized that the cell wall provides stable anchor points around which the actin cytoskeleton remodels. Here we use… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "eLife"

DOI: 10.1101/2022.06.15.496320

Abstract: Defective nutrient storage and adipocyte enlargement (hypertrophy) are emerging features of metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes. Within adipose tissues, how the cytoskeletal network contributes to adipose cell size, nutrient uptake, fat storage, and signaling… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Journal of Virology"

DOI: 10.1128/jvi.00168-21

Abstract: Replication of positive-strand RNA viruses is affected by the recruitment of host components, which provide either proviral or antiviral functions during virus invasion of infected cells. The delivery of these host factors into the viral… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Journal of cell science"

DOI: 10.1242/jcs.258802

Abstract: EphB2/ephrinB signalling that plays a major role in cell segregation during embryonic development and tissue homeostasis, induces an important reorganization of the cortical actin network. We have previously reported that myosin 1b contributes to the… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Journal of Cell Science"

DOI: 10.1242/jcs.261660

Abstract: ABSTRACT Eukaryotic cells have been evolving for billions of years, giving rise to wildly diverse cell forms and functions. Despite their variability, all eukaryotic cells share key hallmarks, including membrane-bound organelles, heavily regulated cytoskeletal networks… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "PLOS Pathogens"

DOI: 10.1371/journal.ppat.1012841

Abstract: The intricate interplay between +RNA viruses and their hosts involves the exploitation of host resources to build virus-induced membranous replication organelles (VROs) in cytosol of infected cells. Previous genome- and proteome-wide approaches have identified numerous… read more here.
