Abstract
Mammalian cells sense and react to external signals by changing shape, behaviour, and even fate. These adaptive responses heavily rely on the actin cytoskeleton and go frequently awry in cancer and other human diseases. We study two druggable and ubiquitously expressed actin-assembly machineries, Arp2/3 complex and mDia formins, which regulate the formation of specialized protrusions and invaginations on the plasma membrane. I will present work from my lab that has contributed to elucidating how actin controls cell migration, clathrin-mediated endocytosis, and signalling in normal cells, and how dysregulation of actin dynamics impacts on homeostasis and carcinogenesis in epithelial tissues.
