HEM-protein regulates cell migration and asymmetric cell division during development of the ventral nerve cord in Drosophila melanogaster
Cell migration and asymmetric cell division are two of the key events during development of the nervous system. I have focused on a typical neuronal lineage, NB4-2→GMC-1→RP2/sib, in the ventral nerve cord (VNC) of the Drosophila embryo to investigate the regulation of neuronal migration and …

Exploring Dystrophin-Mediated Control of Neural Stem Cell Fate Associated with Intellectual Disability In Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Patients
… I show that post-natal neural stem-like cell division in the SGZ is altered in the absence of Dp427 resulting in enhanced symmetric division. I show in vitro that primary mdx cultures are fewer and smaller than wild-type, consistent with an increase in symmetrical self-renewal whereas …

Mechanisms of Regulation of Mitochondrial Dynamics by the Actin Cytoskeleton
… wave spatially shuffles mitochondria for truly symmetric division. We next investigated the cellular function of the wave during interphase. In interphase the actin wave promotes mitochondrial fragmentation, so we hypothesized that during this cell cycle stage the wave promotes mitochondrial …

Nutritional status dictates the rate and mode of intestinal epithelial stem cell proliferation through an AMPK dependent mechanism
… food may drive increases in the rate and mode (asymmetric vs. symmetric) of stem proliferation. In vivo, 48 male C57/B6 mice were used. Mice were fed varying amounts of chow diet and were separated into 4 groups; 1) ab libitum (adlib) fed 2) fifty-percent (50%) of their average consumption 3) …
