Сell aspects of chronic noninfectious diseases pathogenesis
Caveolae are plasma membrane invaginations of the majority of differentiated cells. They are especially abundant in endothelial cells, adipocytes, muscle cells, and fibroblasts.

Abstract Background Extracellular vesicles (EVs), especially exosomes, are nanoparticles increasingly recognized as key regulators of intercellular communication in both physiological and pathological aspects. Despite rapid progress, inconsistencies in nomenclature, isolation, and characterization continue to restrict translational advancement.

Myocardin drives formation of caveolae.
Coronary smooth muscle cells, cultured on polycarbonate membranes, were transduced with Ad-CMV-MYOCD or Ad-CMV-null for 96h and prepared for electron microscopy. Left micrographs in panel A show control cells (Ad-CMV-null) where caveolae were rare. Rough

TMEM16A channel signalling microdomains in the regulation of vascular function
Abstract figure legend Schematic representation of TMEM16A channel signalling microdomains. Calcium influx or calcium release from the endoplasmic/sarcoplasmic reticulum (ER/SR) activates TMEM16A channels through interactions with regulatory proteins in vascular smooth muscle cells or endothelial cells. TMEM16A channel activation drives chloride efflux,

Caveolae : biochemical analysis
Caveolae appear in a multitude of processes encompassing growth regulation and trafficking. We demonstrate the abundant presence of ESA/reggie-1/flotillin-2, ATP synthase beta subunit and annexin V in endothelial caveolae by immunopurification of ...

Integration of signalling in smooth muscle caveolae [PDF]
Caveolae and lipid rafts are plasma membrane microdomains that are considered to play a role in cellular signalling. Caveolins and cavins as well as cholesterol are required for the structure and function of caveolae. The papers summarized in this thesis

ETX treatment causes caveolae formation.
(A) SEM of primary BEC treated with or without 50nM of ETX for 1 hour. White arrows point to apical surface invaginations. (B) Higher magnification of surface invaginations on ETX treated BEC.

Abstract figure legend Immunohistochemistry, electrophysiology and pharmacology are useful tools for understanding protein and channel expression and physiological reactions of calcium‐activated chloride channels (CaCCs). Conventional transmission electron microscopy has provided useful 2‐D information on organelle arrangement, localization and ...

Abstract figure legend The calcium‐activated chloride (ClCa) channel TMEM16A (also known as ANO1) plays critical roles in ion transport, neurotransmission and smooth muscle contraction. Dysregulation of TMEM16A channel activity contributes to the development and progression of various diseases.
