1.
Meighan C, Kann A, Egress E
Gene . 2015 May; 568(2):220-6. PMID: 25982859
Integrins are involved in a vast number of cell behaviors due to their roles in adhesion and signaling. The regulation of integrin expression is of particular interest as a mechanism...

Meighan C, Kelly V, Krahe E, Gaeta A
Mech Dev . 2015 Jan; 136:111-22. PMID: 25576691
Integrin signaling relies on multiple, distinct pathways to impact a diverse set of cell behaviors. The Rho family of GTPases are well-established downstream signaling partners of integrins that regulate cell...

Meighan C, Schwarzbauer J
Int J Dev Biol . 2014 Oct; 58(5):325-33. PMID: 25354452
Integrin signaling impacts many developmental processes. The complexity of these signals increases when multiple, unique integrin heterodimers are expressed during a single developmental event. Since integrin heterodimers have different signaling...

Meighan C, Schwarzbauer J
Curr Opin Cell Biol . 2008 Jul; 20(5):520-4. PMID: 18603422
Integrin receptors for extracellular matrix (ECM) are critical determinants of biological processes. Regulation of integrin expression is one way for cells to respond to changes in the ECM, to integrate...

Meighan C, Schwarzbauer J
Genes Dev . 2007 Jul; 21(13):1615-20. PMID: 17606640
Integrin receptors for extracellular matrix are critical for cell motility, but the signals that determine when to stop are not known. Analysis of distal tip cell (DTC) migration during gonadogenesis...

Meighan C, Cram E, Schwarzbauer J
Curr Biol . 2004 Nov; 14(22):R948-50. PMID: 15556850
Gonad morphogenesis in Caenorhabditis elegans requires two secreted proteases. Recent studies show that alterations of the extracellular matrix component fibulin-1 rescue gonadogenesis in the absence of these proteases. This finding...

Drawbridge J, Meighan C, Lumpkins R, Kite M
Dev Dyn . 2003 Jan; 226(1):1-11. PMID: 12508219
Initiation of excretory system development in all vertebrates requires (1) delamination of the pronephric and pronephric duct rudiments from intermediate mesoderm at the ventral border of anterior somites, and (2)...
