Exocytosis through the lens [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2013
Exocytosis, the process in which material is transported from the cell interior to the extracellular space, proceeds through a complex mechanism. Defects in this process are linked to a number of serious illnesses including diabetes, cancer and a range ...

Glucocorticoid-mediated induction of ZBTB16 affects insulin secretion in human islets and EndoC-βH1 β-cells

open access: yesiScience, 2023
Summary: Glucocorticoid use is associated with steroid-induced diabetes mellitus and impaired pancreatic β-cell insulin secretion. Here, the glucocorticoid-mediated transcriptomic changes in human pancreatic islets and the human insulin-secreting EndoC ...

Polarized Exocytosis [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2017
Polarized exocytosis is generally considered as the multistep vesicular trafficking process in which membrane-bounded carriers are transported from the Golgi or endosomal compartments to specific sites of the plasma membrane. Polarized exocytosis in cells is achieved through the coordinated actions of membrane trafficking machinery and cytoskeleton ...

MARCKS protein is phosphorylated and regulates calcium mobilization during human acrosomal exocytosis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Acrosomal exocytosis is a calcium-regulated exocytosis that can be triggered by PKC activators. The involvement of PKC in acrosomal exocytosis has not been fully elucidated, and it is unknown if MARCKS, the major substrate for PKC, participates in this ...

Extrasynaptic Communication

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2021
Streams of action potentials or long depolarizations evoke a massive exocytosis of transmitters and peptides from the surface of dendrites, axons and cell bodies of different neuron types.

Glucocorticoid induces human beta cell dysfunction by involving riborepressor GAS5 LincRNA

open access: yesMolecular Metabolism, 2020
Objective: A widely recognized metabolic side effect of glucocorticoid (GC) therapy is steroid-induced diabetes mellitus (DM). However, studies on the molecular basis of GC-induced pancreatic beta cell dysfunction in human beta cells are lacking.

Dual Effect of Rosuvastatin on Glucose Homeostasis Through Improved Insulin Sensitivity and Reduced Insulin Secretion

open access: yesEBioMedicine, 2016
Statins are beneficial in the treatment of cardiovascular disease (CVD), but these lipid-lowering drugs are associated with increased incidence of new on-set diabetes.

GLUT4 exocytosis

open access: yesJournal of Cell Science, 2011
GLUT4 is an insulin-regulated glucose transporter that is responsible for insulin-regulated glucose uptake into fat and muscle cells. In the absence of insulin, GLUT4 is mainly found in intracellular vesicles referred to as GLUT4 storage vesicles (GSVs).

Effects of the surface charge of polyamidoamine dendrimers on cellular exocytosis and the exocytosis mechanism in multidrug-resistant breast cancer cells

open access: yesJournal of Nanobiotechnology, 2021
Background Polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimer applications have extended from tumor cells to multidrug-resistant tumor cells. However, their transportation in multidrug-resistant tumor cells remains unclear.
