How can you use “microtubules” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
In contrast, depolymerizing microtubules with nocodazole did not change the distribution of these transcripts between the cytosolic and cytoskeleton fractions (data not shown).
Analyzed as a whole, these experiments suggest that the change in cellular phenotype, as a consequence of resveratrol:EC interaction, is dependent on Ca 2+, tyrosine kinases, and intact actin microfilament and microtubules.
Although DOTMAC induced bundling of actin filaments and microtubules, which could have affected ultrastructural features of the cytoskeleton, microextensions of DOTMAC/PFA-extracted cells did not differ from those of non-treated cells.
There are reports of tubulin isotypes that are differentially incorporated into microtubule structures [ 62 ] . However, it is not possible to fractionate microtubules from total cytoplasmic tubulin with quick-frozen human tissue samples.
For example, total amounts of polymerizable tubulin are decreased in paclitaxel-resistant cells, whereas col-cemid-resistant tubulin or vinca alkaloid-resistant cells have increased levels of assembled tubulin [ 34 66 67 ] . Furthermore, when cells were transfected with β-tubulin class III, weak resistance to paclitaxel was found, and this resistance was associated with decreased microtubule stability [ 68 ] . This is consistent with the different modes of action of these drugs: paclitaxel stabilizes microtubules and colcemid inhibits tubulin assembly.
