The newly found functions of MTOC in immunological response

Abstract: The MTOCs are present in all eukaryotic cells. In animal somatic cells, the MTOC function is played by a centrosome, which contains centrioles and PCM. The traditional view is that the MTOC is responsible for the organization of microtubular structures (the intracellular network, cilia, and flagella) in interphase cells, and the formation of the mitotic and meiotic spindle apparatus which is required for the partitioning of chromosomes in dividing cells. Recent evidence suggests that MTOC also plays a key role… Show more

“…Recent studies have shown that centrosome reorientation occurs during formation of the IS. IS formation is a necessary step within the immune response that includes membrane rearrangement at the sites where a T cell contacts an antigen-presenting cell (APC), resulting in activation of the T cell (Kloc et al 2013). Cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) or natural killer (NK) cells form one type of IS that can eliminate infected or tumorigenic cells by releasing cytolytic granules.…”

“…RNA was purified from primary cells using the RNeasy Plus Mini Kit (Qiagen) according to the manufacturer's instructions followed by cDNA synthesis using the Transcriptor First Strand cDNA Synthesis Kit (Roche) and the anchored-oligo(dT) 18 primer. Subsequently, quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was performed using the LightCycler 480 SYBR Green I Master Kit (Roche) according to the manufacturer's protocol and the LightCycler 480 device.…”

“…Physical contact between the Golgi and centriole is also required for cell polarization and movement when the Golgi and centriole move in unison to the leading edge of the cell. A striking example of the polarization of the Golgi/centriole complex is the formation of the immunological synapse between interacting immune cells during the immune response (Kloc et al 2014). Although we still do not fully understand the role of the association between the Golgi and centriole, it is believed that it facilitates polar/directional movement of the Golgi-derived secretory vesicles on the microtubules nucleated at the centrioles.…”
