CAVIN-2 positively correlates with diabetic PAD and promotes LDL transcytosis by inhibiting eNOS activation [PDF]
Objective Caveolae are closely linked to the onset and progression of atherosclerosis. The pivotal involvement of caveolin-1 (CAV1) within the caveolae in atherosclerosis development has been consistently supported.

Cavin-2 Promotes Fibroblast-to-Myofibroblast Trans-Differentiation and Aggravates Cardiac Fibrosis
Aims Transforming growth factor β (TGF‐β) signalling is one of the critical pathways in fibroblast activation, and several drugs targeting the TGF‐β/Smad signalling pathway in heart failure with cardiac fibrosis are being tested in clinical trials.

Adversarial Erasing Enhanced Multiple Instance Learning (siMILe): Discriminative Identification of Oligomeric Protein Structures in Single Molecule Localization Microscopy [PDF]
Single‐molecule localization microscopy (SMLM) achieves nanoscale imaging of complex protein structures in the cell. However, the ability to capture structural variability across cell conditions (cell lines, gene expression, treatment) from 3D point ...

Requirement of Cavin-2 for the expression and stability of IRβ in adequate adipocyte differentiation
Objective: Adipogenesis plays an essential role in maintaining energy and hormonal balance. Cavin-2, one of the caveolae-related proteins, is abundant in adipocytes, the leading site of adipogenesis.

IGF-IR internalizes with Caveolin-1 and PTRF/Cavin in HaCat cells. [PDF]
BACKGROUND:Insulin-like growth factor-I receptor (IGF-IR) is a tyrosine kinase receptor (RTK) associated with caveolae, invaginations of the plasma membrane that regulate vesicular transport, endocytosis and intracellular signaling.

Cholesterol depletion in adipocytes causes caveolae collapse concomitant with proteosomal degradation of cavin-2 in a switch-like fashion. [PDF]
Caveolae, little caves of cell surfaces, are enriched in cholesterol, a certain level of which is required for their structural integrity. Here we show in adipocytes that cavin-2, a peripheral membrane protein and one of 3 cavin isoforms present in ...

Role of Caveolae family-related proteins in the development of breast cancer
Breast cancer has become the most significant malignant tumor threatening women’s lives. Caveolae are concave pits formed by invagination of the plasma membrane that participate in many biological functions of the cell membrane, such as endocytosis, cell

Co-regulation of cell polarization and migration by caveolar proteins PTRF/Cavin-1 and caveolin-1. [PDF]
Caveolin-1 and caveolae are differentially polarized in migrating cells in various models, and caveolin-1 expression has been shown to quantitatively modulate cell migration.
