Capping protein (CP) binds the fast growing barbed end of the actin filament and regulates
actin assembly by blocking the addition and loss of actin subunits. Recent studies provide …

The plasma membrane and the underlying cortical actin cytoskeleton undergo continuous
dynamic interplay that is responsible for many essential aspects of cell physiology …

The heterodimeric actin capping protein, referred to here as “CP,” is an essential element of
the actin cytoskeleton, binding to the barbed ends of actin filaments and regulating their …

During megakaryopoiesis, megakaryocytes (MKs) undergo cellular morphological changes
with strong modification of membrane composition and lipid signaling. Here, we adopt a lipid …

Capping protein (CP) regulates actin dynamics by binding the barbed ends of actin
filaments. Removal of CP may be one means to harness actin polymerization for processes …

Our previous study indicated that Casein kinase 2 interacting protein-1 (CKIP-1) could
promote the activation of the nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2)/antioxidant response …

Background—Sustained cardiac pressure overload–induced hypertrophy and pathological
remodeling frequently leads to heart failure. Casein kinase-2 interacting protein-1 (CKIP-1) …

Control of the dimensions of actin-rich processes like filopodia, lamellipodia, microvilli, and
stereocilia requires the coordinated activity of many proteins. Each of these actin structures …

Atherosclerosis-related cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of mortality
worldwide. Macrophages uptake modified lipoproteins and transform into foam cells …

The actin capping protein (CP) tightly binds to the barbed end of actin filaments, thus playing
a key role in actin-based lamellipodial dynamics. V-1 and CARMIL proteins directly bind to …
