Actin, microtubules, cell-cell junction and cell polarisation
Learning objectives

1. Cytoskeleton
2. Actin
3. Microtubules
4. Intermediate filament
5. Cell-cell junction

Maintenance of tissue architecture: small intestine

 Image shows communication between cells is vital for maintance of tissue architectures.
 Stromal cell secretes GF to communicate with the epithelial cells
 The cytoskeleton is vital for cells to change and maintain shape
 Cytoskeleton is dynamic




Cell migration




l- cytoskeleton

,  3 kinds of filaments:
1. Microtubules
2. Actin filaments
3. Intermediate filament
 Functions of the cytoskeleton:
- Structure
- Attachment
- Compartmentalisation
- Motility
- Transport
- Cell division
 Filamentous network that provides the structural framework of cells

Actin filaments Microtubules Intermediate filaments

Thin 25nm 8-10 nm
Microfilaments Thickest Less dynamic than actin and
6nm Highly dynamic like actin microtubules




 The cytoskeleton is highly dynamic, it changes during change in cell shape
 Image mainly represents actin and microtubule
 Stat with small soluble subunit
- For actin, the small soluble subunit is called G-actin
- For microtubule, the small soluble subunit is called tubule
 The small soluble subunit then self-assembles to form large filamentous polymer
 GF trigger disassembly of filaments and rapid diffusion of subunits
 Followed by reassembly of filaments at a new site to maintain cell polarity or structure of tissue
 The cell responds rapidly to the GF by changing shape or migration




 Microscopic image of cells
- The molecule, tubulin has been conjugated with rhodatin that has been introduced to the cell
- Therefore, the tubulin has been incorporated into the microtubule
