Hippo pathway regulates caveolae expression and mediates flow response via caveolae [PDF]
, 2020 The Hippo pathway is a key regulator of cell survival, proliferation and tissue homeostasis. In addition, it is vital for development and regeneration.

Regulation of caveolae through cholesterol-depletion dependent tubulation by PACSIN2/Syndapin II [PDF]
, 2020 The membrane shaping ability of PACSIN2 via its FCH-BAR (F-BAR) domain has been shown to be essential for caveolar morphogenesis, presumably through the shaping of the caveolar neck. Caveolar membrane contains abundant levels of cholesterol. However, the

Lipid accumulation controls the balance between surface connection and scission of caveolae
eLife, 2020 Caveolae are bulb-shaped invaginations of the plasma membrane (PM) that undergo scission and fusion at the cell surface and are enriched in specific lipids.

Introduction of caveolae structural proteins into the protozoan Toxoplasma results in the formation of heterologous caveolae but not caveolar endocytosis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Present on the plasma membrane of most metazoans, caveolae are specialized microdomains implicated in several endocytic and trafficking mechanisms. Caveolins and the more recently discovered cavins are the major protein components of caveolae.

Theoretical model for the formation of caveolae and similar membrane invaginations [PDF]
, 2004 We study a physical model for the formation of bud-like invaginations on fluid lipid membranes under tension, and apply this model to caveolae formation.

Energy and Dynamics of Caveolae Trafficking
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 Caveolae are 70–100 nm diameter plasma membrane invaginations found in abundance in adipocytes, endothelial cells, myocytes, and fibroblasts. Their bulb-shaped membrane domain is characterized and formed by specific lipid binding proteins including ...

Intermittent Hypoxia Mediates Caveolae Disassembly That Parallels Insulin Resistance Development
Frontiers in Physiology, 2020 Repetitive complete or incomplete pharyngeal collapses are leading to chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH), a hallmark feature of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) syndrome responsible for many metabolic disorders.
