Data show that spermatid/phagosome transport across the epithelium during spermatogenesis requires the coordination between actin- and microtubule (MT)-based cytoskeletons.

Both ZBP1 and HuD bind the zipcode element in rat beta-actin mRNA's 3' UTR. Differences between HuD and ZBP1 were observed in their binding preference to the element.
Title: Different motif requirements for the localization zipcode element of ?-actin mRNA binding by HuD and ZBP1.

Thsi study validated the Hprt1, Actb, Mapk6 or B2m and showed that any one or combination of two of them are good reference genes for normalization of mRNA expression in qPCR experiments in the spinal cord and RVM in the CFA model of inflammatory injury.
Title: Validation of four reference genes for quantitative mRNA expression studies in a rat model of inflammatory injury.

Data indicate that LIM motif-containing protein kinases LIMK1 and LIMK2-dependent acin rearrangement is involved in the development of complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA)-induced inflammatory pain.
