Exocytosis through the lens [PDF]
Frontiers 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 ...

Temperature-dependence of Weibel-Palade body exocytosis and cell surface dispersal of von Willebrand factor and its propolypeptide. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 BackgroundWeibel-Palade bodies (WPB) are endothelial cell (EC) specific secretory organelles containing Von Willebrand factor (VWF). The temperature-dependence of Ca(2+)-driven WPB exocytosis is not known, although indirect evidence suggests that WPB ...

A Novel Role of the TRPM4 Ion Channel in Exocytosis [PDF]
Cells, 2022 Under physiological conditions, the widely expressed calcium-activated TRPM4 channel conducts sodium into cells. This sodium influx depolarizes the plasma membrane and reduces the driving force for calcium entry.

Anaphylactic Degranulation of Mast Cells: Focus on Compound Exocytosis
Journal of Immunology Research, 2019 Anaphylaxis is a notorious type 2 immune response which may result in a systemic response and lead to death. A precondition for the unfolding of the anaphylactic shock is the secretion of inflammatory mediators from mast cells in response to an allergen,

SNAP23 Regulates Endothelial Exocytosis of von Willebrand Factor. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Endothelial exocytosis regulates vascular thrombosis and inflammation. The trafficking and release of endothelial vesicles is mediated by SNARE (Soluble NSF Attachment protein REceptors) molecules, but the exact identity of endothelial SNAREs has been ...

SIP30 involvement in vesicle exocytosis from PC12 cells
Biochemistry and Biophysics ReportsSNAP25 (synaptosome-associated protein of 25 kDa) is a core SNARE (soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment receptor) protein; and the interaction between SNAP25 and other SNARE proteins is essential for synaptic vesicle exocytosis ...

Exocytosis in Astrocytes [PDF]
Biomolecules, 2021 Until recently, astrocytes were thought to be a part of a simple “brain glue” providing only a supporting role for neurons. However, the discoveries of the last two decades have proven astrocytes to be dynamic partners participating in brain metabolism and actively influencing communication between neurons.

Exocytosis and Endocytosis [PDF]
The Plant Cell, 1999 Exocytosis is a general term used to denote vesicle fusion at the plasma membrane, and it is the final step in the secretory pathway that typically begins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), passes through the Golgi apparatus, and ends at the outside of the cell.

Cold 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 ...

CaMKIIalpha interacts with multi-PDZ domain protein MUPP1 in spermatozoa and prevents spontaneous acrosomal exocytosis [PDF]
, 2009 The success of acrosomal exocytosis, a complex process with a variety of inter-related steps, relies on the coordinated interaction of participating signaling molecules.
