Clathrin: Bender or bystander?

Journal of Cell Biology, 2022
Cell biologists have long debated the role of clathrin in curving membranes during endocytosis. New findings from Cail et al. (2022. J. Cell Biol.https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.202109013) take an innovative approach to directly demonstrate the indispensable functions of both clathrin and its adaptor network in shaping endocytic vesicles.

Nanoinjection Platform for Drug Delivery in Breast Cancer Therapeutics

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A schematic shows Nanoarchaeosomes loaded with doxorubicin (NAD) delivered via silicon nanotubes (SiNTs) into MCF‐7 cells, triggering apoptosis and necrosis. Released doxorubicin generates ROS, disrupts mitochondria, and intercalates DNA. This dual‐action nanoinjection enhances cytotoxicity and improves breast cancer therapy efficacy.

Fibronectin rescues estrogen receptor α from lysosomal degradation in breast cancer cells [PDF]

, 2018
Estrogen receptor α (ERα) is expressed in tissues as diverse as brains and mammary glands. In breast cancer, ERα is a key regulator of tumor progression.

Spatiotemporal Control of Lipid Conversion, Actin-Based Mechanical Forces, and Curvature Sensors during Clathrin/AP-1-Coated Vesicle Biogenesis

Cell Reports, 2017
Clathrin/adaptor protein-1-coated carriers connect the secretory and the endocytic pathways. Carrier biogenesis relies on distinct protein networks changing membrane shape at the trans-Golgi network, each regulating coat assembly, F-actin-based ...

Intracellular Monitoring of Luminescent Ag2S Nanoparticles in Fibroblasts

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
This study investigates the long‐term luminescence behavior of Ag2S quantum dots (AS QDs) with three surface ligands (DTDTPA, 11MUA, PEG) in fibroblasts over 9 days. AS‐PEG showed stable uptake and enhanced NIR‐II emission, while others decreased due to oxidative stress.

Cellular Responses to Nanoscale Topography Mediated Through the RhoA/ROCK Pathway. [PDF]

Small
The most common ways that cells respond to nanoscale patterns include cytoskeletal reorganization, reduction in focal adhesion density, and increased endocytosis. Here RhoA is identified as a single biological pathway that can unify cellular responses to nanotopography.

Improved split fluorescent proteins for endogenous protein labeling. [PDF]

, 2017
Self-complementing split fluorescent proteins (FPs) have been widely used for protein labeling, visualization of subcellular protein localization, and detection of cell-cell contact.

A potential role for the clathrin adaptor GGA in Drosophila spermatogenesis

BMC Cell Biology, 2011
Background GGAs (Golgi-localised, γ-ear containing, ADP ribosylation factor-binding) are a family of clathrin adaptors that sort a number of biologically important transmembrane proteins into clathrin-coated vesicles.

Mechanical Interactions Impact the Functions of Immune Cells and Their Application in Immunoengineering

Advanced Therapeutics, EarlyView.
This review covers the mechanical forces experienced by immune cells through cell–cell and cell–extracellular matrix interactions and how these forces influence their receptors and functions. These relationships between forces and cellular functions can be exploited using engineering techniques to modify the physical properties of materials for novel ...

New tools for “hot-wiring” clathrin-mediated endocytosis with temporal and spatial precision

Journal of Cell Biology, 2017
Clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) is the major route of receptor internalization at the plasma membrane. Analysis of constitutive CME is difficult because the initiation of endocytic events is unpredictable.
