Interdisciplinary Synergy to Reveal Mechanisms of Annexin-Mediated Plasma Membrane Shaping and Repair

open access: yesCells, 2020
The plasma membrane surrounds every single cell and essentially shapes cell life by separating the interior from the external environment. Thus, maintenance of cell membrane integrity is essential to prevent death caused by disruption of the plasma ...

TRIM72 promotes alveolar epithelial cell membrane repair and ameliorates lung fibrosis [PDF]

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2020
Background Chronic tissue injury was shown to induce progressive scarring in fibrotic diseases such as idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), while an array of repair/regeneration and stress responses come to equilibrium to determine the outcome of injury ...

Helicobacter pylori Disrupts Host Cell Membranes, Initiating a Repair Response and Cell Proliferation [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2012
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori), the human stomach pathogen, lives on the inner surface of the stomach and causes chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer, and gastric cancer. Plasma membrane repair response is a matter of life and death for human cells against physical and biological damage. We here test the hypothesis that H.

Ca2+–Calmodulin Dependent Wound Repair in Dictyostelium Cell Membrane [PDF]

open access: yesCells, 2020
Wound repair of cell membrane is a vital physiological phenomenon. We examined wound repair in Dictyostelium cells by using a laserporation, which we recently invented. We examined the influx of fluorescent dyes from the external medium and monitored the cytosolic Ca2+ after wounding.

4-Phenylbutyrate restores localization and membrane repair to human dysferlin mutations [PDF]

open access: yesiScience, 2022
Summary: Dysferlinopathies are muscular dystrophies caused by recessive loss-of-function mutations in dysferlin (DYSF), a membrane protein involved in skeletal muscle membrane repair.

Agonal cell resuscitation strategy to promote tissue repair [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
Overactive lytic regulated cell death (RCD) causes excessive inflammation and impairs tissue repair. Current strategies rely on small-molecule inhibitors targeting the initiation of lytic RCD but these show off-target effects and reduced pro-repair ...

Tollip antagonizes ESCRT-III-mediated plasma membrane repair and cell recovery [PDF]

open access: yesCell Regeneration
Cells can recover from sub-lethal necrosis by repairing plasma-membrane (PM) rupture through the ESCRT-III machinery, but how this process is regulated remains unknown. Here, we identify Toll-interacting protein (Tollip) as a conserved negative regulator

Difference in Membrane Repair Capacity Between Cancer Cell Lines and a Normal Cell Line [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Membrane Biology, 2016
Electroporation-based treatments and other therapies that permeabilize the plasma membrane have been shown to be more devastating to malignant cells than to normal cells. In this study, we asked if a difference in repair capacity could explain this observed difference in sensitivity.

Annexin-A6 in Membrane Repair of Human Skeletal Muscle Cell: A Role in the Cap Subdomain

open access: yesCells, 2020
Defects in membrane repair contribute to the development of some muscular dystrophies, highlighting the importance to decipher the membrane repair mechanisms in human skeletal muscle. In murine myofibers, the formation of a cap subdomain composed notably

Lectin-based food poisoning: a new mechanism of protein toxicity. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2007
BACKGROUND: Ingestion of the lectins present in certain improperly cooked vegetables can result in acute GI tract distress, but the mechanism of toxicity is unknown.
