Research Abstract |
The small GTPase Rho functions as a molecular switch of cell morphogenesis, adhesion, migration and division by acting on downstream signaling molecules. Here we studied the spatiotemoral role of this signaling in cultured cells and the body. We revealed the role and mechanism of the Rho signaling in cell migration and cell division in cultured cells and further found that this pathway plays an essential role in development such as embryo vasculogenesis and proper path finding of axon, and that this pathway is exploited by oncogenes in cell transformation and tumorigenesis.
