1 To further elucidate the detailed mechanism of MC-LR-induced cytoskeletal assembly, we focused on two cytoskeletal-related proteins, Tau and VASP. cyanoginosin LR vasodilator stimulated phosphoprotein Homo sapiens
2 VASP was also hyperphosphorylated upon MC-LR exposure; however, its phosphorylation appeared to regulate its cellular localization rather than cytoskeletal dynamics, and its phosphorylation was unaffected by the PP2A activator. cyanoginosin LR vasodilator stimulated phosphoprotein Homo sapiens
3 Tau hyperphosphorylation is likely an important factor leading to the cytoskeletal destabilization triggered by MC-LR and the role of VASP alteration upon MC-LR exposure needs to be studied further. cyanoginosin LR vasodilator stimulated phosphoprotein Homo sapiens
4 To our knowledge, the finding that Tau is implicated in cytoskeletal destabilization in MC-LR-treated hepatocytes and MC-LR-induced VASP"s alteration has not been reported previously. cyanoginosin LR vasodilator stimulated phosphoprotein Homo sapiens
