Zusammenfassung
Accumulating evidence indicates that cells undergo temporal and spatial reorganization of the cytoskeleton and cell adhesions upon stimulation by extracellular signals including growth factors, hormones and bioactive lipids or during cell movement and mitosis (Stossel 1993; Zigmond 1996). Cytoskeletons mainly consist of actin filaments, microtubules and intermediate filaments Nobes and Hall 1994). These filaments are dynamically reorganized during cell movement and mitosis. Cell adhesions are mediated by cell adhesion molecules such as cadherin and integrin, and their associated cytoplasmic proteins such as catenins and talin Takeichi 1990Gumbiner 1996). Cell adhesions are also dynamically reorganized during cell movement and mitosis. However, until recently little was known about the signal transduction pathways which regulate the reorganization of the cytoskeleton and cell adhesions.
