Caveolin-1, caveolae, and glioblastoma [PDF]

open access: yesNeuro-Oncology, 2012
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common malignant brain tumor and is characterized by high invasiveness, poor prognosis, and limited therapeutic options. Biochemical and morphological experiments have shown the presence of caveolae in glioblastoma cells. Caveolae are flask-shaped plasma membrane subdomains that play trafficking, mechanosensing,

Lipid organization by the Caveolin-1 complex. [PDF]

open access: yesBiophys J
AbstractCaveolins are lipid-binding proteins that can organize membrane remodeling and oligomerize into the 8S-complex. The CAV1 8S-complex comprises a disk-like structure, about 15nm in diameter, with a central beta barrel. Further oligomerization of 8S-complexes remodels the membrane into caveolae vessels, with a dependence on cholesterol ...

Glycosphingolipid Mediated Caveolin-1 Oligomerization [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Glycomics & Lipidomics, 2012
We have previously demonstrated an association between the accumulation of the glycosphingolipid globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) and the loss of high molecular weight oligomers in the aortas of α-galactosidase A-knockout mice, a model of Fabry disease. In the present study the molecular basis for the association between glycosphingolipids and caveolin-1 ...

Caveolin‐1, cancer and therapy resistance [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, 2018
Resistance of solid tumors to chemo‐ and radiotherapy remains a major obstacle in anti‐cancer treatment. Herein, the membrane protein caveolin‐1 (CAV1) came into focus as it is highly expressed in many tumors and high CAV1 levels were correlated with tumor progression, invasion and metastasis, and thus a worse clinical outcome.

Caveolin-1 Signaling in Lung Fibrosis [PDF]

open access: yesThe Open Rheumatology Journal, 2012
Caveolin-1 is a master regulator of several signaling cascades because it is able to bind to and thereby inhibit members of a variety of kinase families. While associated with caveolae and involved in their generation, caveolin-1 is also present at other sites.

Decreased expression of caveolin 1 in patients with systemic sclerosis: crucial role in the pathogenesis of tissue fibrosis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
OBJECTIVE: Recent studies have implicated caveolin 1 in the regulation of transforming growth factor beta (TGFbeta) downstream signaling. Given the crucial role of TGFbeta in the pathogenesis of systemic sclerosis (SSc), we sought to determine whether ...

Caveolin-1 expression is elevated in claudin-low mammary tumor cells

open access: yesCancer Cell International, 2012
Background Caveolin-1 is a scaffolding protein found in plasma membrane invaginations known as caveolae. Caveolin-1 can regulate a number of intracellular processes such as signal transduction, cholesterol metabolism and vesicular transport. With respect

Prognostic significance of epithelial/stromal caveolin‐1 expression in prostatic hyperplasia, high grade prostatic intraepithelial hyperplasia and prostatic carcinoma and its correlation with microvessel density

open access: yesJournal of the Egyptian National Cancer Institute, 2017
Caveolin-1 may play a role in cancer development and progression. The aim was to record the expression and localization of caveolin-1 in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), high grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (HGPIN) and prostatic carcinoma ...

Niemann-Pick C1 protein regulates cholesterol transport to the trans-Golgi network and plasma membrane caveolae

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2002
The Niemann-Pick C1 (NPC1) protein regulates cholesterol transport from late endosomes-lysosomes to other intracellular compartments. In this article, cholesterol transport to caveolin-1 and caveolin-2 containing compartments, such as the trans-Golgi ...

Sterol Carrier Protein-2 Directly Interacts with Caveolin-1 in Vitro and in Vivo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
HDL-mediated reverse-cholesterol transport as well as phosphoinositide signaling are mediated through plasma membrane microdomains termed caveolae/lipid rafts.
