L'équipe Gazave a publié un nouvel article dans Scientific report : Extrinsic apoptosis participates to tail regression during the metamorphosis of the chordate Ciona Résumé Apoptosis is a regulated cell death ubiquitous in animals defined by morphological features depending on caspases. Two regulation pathways are described, currently named the intrinsic and the extrinsic apoptosis. While intrinsic apoptosis…

L'équipe Jackson/Verbavatz a publié un nouvel article dans eLife : The ER tether VAPA is required for proper cell motility and anchors ER-PM contact sites to focal adhesions   Résumé : Cell motility processes highly depend on the membrane distribution of Phosphoinositides, giving rise to cytoskeleton reshaping and membrane trafficking events. Membrane contact sites serve as platforms for…
