To maintain tissue homeostasis and avoid disease, epithelial cells damaged by pathogens need to be readily replenished, and this is mainly achieved by the activation of stem cells. In this Short Review, we discuss recent developments in the exciting field of host epithelia-pathogen interaction in Drosophila as well as in mammals. © 2009 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

Addressing the Functional Determinants of FAK during Ciliogenesis in Multiciliated Cells
Antoniades, Ioanna; Stylianou, Panayiota; Christodoulou, Neophytos; Skourides, Paris A. (2017)We previously identified focal adhesion kinase (FAK) as an important regulator of ciliogenesis in multiciliated cells. FAK and other focal adhesion (FA) proteins associate with the basal bodies and their striated rootlets ...

The nucleotide-binding proteins Nubp1 and Nubp2 are negative regulators of ciliogenesis
Kypri, Elena; Christodoulou, A.; Maimaris, G.; Lethan, M.; Markaki, M.; Lysandrou, C.; Lederer, C. W.; Tavernarakis, N.; Geimer, S.; Pedersen, L. B.; Santama, Niovi (2014)Nucleotide-binding proteins Nubp1 and Nubp2 are MRP/MinD-type P-loop NTPases with sequence similarity to bacterial division site-determining proteins and are conserved, essential proteins throughout the Eukaryotes. They ...
