Uromodulin: Roles in Health and Disease

Celine Schaeffer et al.

Summary: Uromodulin, a kidney-specific protein, plays crucial roles in kidney physiology and overall health, with its genetic mutations causing renal disease and common polymorphisms associated with various disorders such as chronic kidney disease, hypertension, and cardiovascular diseases. Variations in uromodulin levels in urine and blood can serve as prognostic markers for kidney function, cardiovascular events, and mortality.

Biomineralization of Enamel and Dentin Mediated by Matrix Proteins

J. Moradian-Oldak et al.

Summary: Biomineralization of enamel, dentin, and bone involves the deposition of apatite mineral crystals within an organic matrix. While the structure and organic composition of these tissues differ, the molecular mechanisms involving protein interactions and crystallization events are common. The review highlights the importance of protein matrix control in the mineralization process and discusses strategies for biomimetic growth of enamel and repair of demineralized dentin and bone tissue engineering.

Stochastic contraction of myosin minifilaments drives evolution of microridge protrusion patterns in epithelial cells

Aaron P. van Loon et al.

Summary: Actin-based protrusions, in the form of microridges, exhibit dynamic remodeling through fission and fusion on mucosal epithelial cells. Local NMII activity in the apical cortex plays a crucial role in driving microridge formation and rearrangement. High-resolution imaging revealed that NMII minifilaments tethered to protrusions orchestrate the process of microridge fusion and severance, resulting in an increasingly orderly arrangement as cells mature.
