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 ...

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.

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.

Loss of AP-3 function affects spontaneous and evoked release at hippocampal mossy fiber synapses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Synaptic vesicle (SV) exocytosis mediating neurotransmitter release occurs spontaneously at low intraterminal calcium concentrations and is stimulated by a rise in intracellular calcium.

Release of vasopressin from isolated permeabilized neurosecretory nerve terminals is blocked by the light chain of botulinum A toxin [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
The intracellular action on exocytosis of botulinim A toxin and constituent chains was studied using permeabilized isolated nerve endings from the rat neural lobe. The release of the neuropeptide vasopressin was measured by radioimmunoassay.
