Membrane trafficking: Retrofusion as an escape route out of the endosome

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2021
Intraluminal vesicles accumulate within the endosomal lumen before lysosomal delivery or extracellular release. A new study reports the development of an elegant assay showing that these vesicles can escape from the endosomal lumen by 'back-fusion' or 'retrofusion' with the endosomal limiting membrane.

Selective targeting of chemically modified miR-34a to prostate cancer using a small molecule ligand and an endosomal escape agent. [PDF]

open access: yesMol Ther Nucleic Acids
Use of tumor-suppressive microRNAs (miRNAs) as anti-cancer agents is hindered by the lack of effective delivery vehicles, entrapment of the miRNA within endocytic compartments, and rapid degradation of miRNA by nucleases.

A display of pH-sensitive fusogenic GALA peptide facilitates endosomal escape from a Bio-nanocapsule via an endocytic uptake pathway [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
BACKGROUND: An affibody-displaying bio-nanocapsule (Z(HER2)-BNC) with a hepatocyte specificity derived from hepatitis B virus (HBV) was converted into an affibody, Z(HER2), that recognizes HER2 receptors.
