Hematopoietic Stem Cell Arrival Triggers Dynamic Remodeling of the Perivascular Niche
- Owen J. Tamplin, E. Durand, +6 authors L. Zon
- Biology, Medicine
- Cell
- 15 January 2015
Hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) can reconstitute and sustain the entire blood system. We generated a highly specific transgenic reporter of HSPCs in zebrafish. This allowed us to… Expand
UNC-6 (Netrin) Orients the Invasive Membrane of the Anchor Cell in C. elegans
- Joshua W. Ziel, Elliott J. Hagedorn, A. Audhya, D. Sherwood
- Biology, Medicine
- Nature Cell Biology
- 17 October 2008
Despite their profound importance in the development of cancer, the extracellular cues that target cell invasion through basement membrane barriers remain poorly understood. A central obstacle has… Expand
The netrin receptor DCC focuses invadopodia-driven basement membrane transmigration in vivo
- Elliott J. Hagedorn, Joshua W. Ziel, +5 authors D. Sherwood
- Biology, Medicine
- The Journal of cell biology
- 10 June 2013
Localized activation of netrin signaling induces focused F-actin formation and the protrusive force necessary for physical displacement of basement membrane during cell transmigration.
Traversing the basement membrane in vivo: A diversity of strategies
- L. Kelley, L. Lohmer, Elliott J. Hagedorn, D. Sherwood
- Biology, Medicine
- The Journal of cell biology
- 3 February 2014
The basement membrane is a dense, highly cross-linked, sheet-like extracellular matrix that underlies all epithelia and endothelia in multicellular animals. During development, leukocyte trafficking,… Expand
Integrin acts upstream of netrin signaling to regulate formation of the anchor cell's invasive membrane in C. elegans.
- Elliott J. Hagedorn, Hanako Yashiro, Joshua W. Ziel, Shinji Ihara, Zheng Wang, D. Sherwood
- Biology, Medicine
- Developmental cell
- 18 August 2009
Integrin expression and activity have been strongly correlated with developmental and pathological processes involving cell invasion through basement membranes. The role of integrins in mediating… Expand
UNC-6 (netrin) stabilizes oscillatory clustering of the UNC-40 (DCC) receptor to orient polarity
- Zheng Wang, L. M. Linden, +5 authors D. Sherwood
- Biology, Medicine
- The Journal of cell biology
- 1 September 2014
Stabilization of oscillatory UNC-40 clustering by its ligand UNC-6 directs localized F-actin generation and polarization of cells.
Basement Membrane Sliding and Targeted Adhesion Remodels Tissue Boundaries During Uterine-vulval Attachment in C. elegans
- Shinji Ihara, Elliott J. Hagedorn, +4 authors David R Sherwood
- Biology, Medicine
- Nature Cell Biology
- 10 March 2011
Large gaps in basement membrane occur at sites of cell invasion and tissue remodelling in development and cancer. Though never followed directly in vivo, basement membrane dissolution or reduced… Expand
A Sensitized Screen for Genes Promoting Invadopodia Function In Vivo: CDC-42 and Rab GDI-1 Direct Distinct Aspects of Invadopodia Formation
- L. Lohmer, M. Clay, +6 authors David R Sherwood
- Biology, Medicine
- PLoS genetics
- 1 January 2016
Invadopodia are specialized membrane protrusions composed of F-actin, actin regulators, signaling proteins, and a dynamically trafficked invadopodial membrane that drive cell invasion through… Expand
CXCR1 remodels the vascular niche to promote hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell engraftment
- B. W. Blaser, Jessica L Moore, +8 authors L. Zon
- Biology, Medicine
- The Journal of experimental medicine
- 3 April 2017
The microenvironment is an important regulator of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell (HSPC) biology. Recent advances marking fluorescent HSPCs have allowed exquisite visualization of HSPCs in the… Expand
A zebrafish melanoma model reveals emergence of neural crest identity during melanoma initiation
- C. Kaufman, C. Mosimann, +15 authors L. Zon
- Biology, Medicine
- Science
- 29 January 2016
Visualizing the beginnings of melanoma In cancer biology, a tumor begins from a single cell within a group of precancerous cells that share genetic mutations. Kaufman et al. used a zebrafish melanoma… Expand
