Electrical signals control wound healing through phosphatidylinositol-3-OH kinase-Gamma and PTEN
Article Abstract:
Electric fields, of strength equal to those detected endogenously, are shown to be the prime directional cue for direct cell migration during wound healing in multicellular organisms. Electric stimulation activates signaling pathways for activation of Src and inositol-phospholipid signaling, which polarized in the direction of cell migration.

Stress-signalling kinase Sek1 protects thymocytes from apoptosis mediated by CD95 and CD3
Article Abstract:
An examination of the role of Sek1, a direct activator of stress-activated protein kinases or Jun N-terminal kinases, in development and apoptosis revealed that the induction of apoptosis in reaction to environmental stresses in embryonic stem and T cells was not affected by sek1 mutation. Instead, sek1 was found to protect thymocytes from apoptosis mediated by CD95 (fas)- and CD3. Results also suggest that SEK1 mediates survival signals in T-cell development.
