Protein Dynamics in the Plant Extracellular Space [PDF]

open access: yesProteomes, 2016
The extracellular space (ECS or apoplast) is the plant cell compartment external to the plasma membrane, which includes the cell walls, the intercellular space and the apoplastic fluid (APF).

An Isotonic Model of Neuron Swelling Based on Co-Transport of Salt and Water

open access: yesMembranes, 2023
Neurons spend most of their energy building ion gradients across the cell membrane. During energy deprivation the neurons swell, and the concomitant mixing of their ions is commonly assumed to lead toward a Donnan equilibrium, at which the concentration ...

New Insights into Alzheimer’s Disease: Novel Pathogenesis, Drug Target and Delivery

open access: yesPharmaceutics, 2023
Alzheimer’s disease (AD), the most common type of dementia, is characterized by senile plaques composed of amyloid β protein (Aβ) and neurofilament tangles derived from the hyperphosphorylation of tau protein.

Unconventional Pathways of Protein Secretion: Mammals vs. Plants

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
In eukaryotes, many proteins contain an N-terminal signal peptide that allows their translocation into the endoplasmic reticulum followed by secretion outside the cell according to the classical secretory system. However, an increasing number of secreted

Extracellular volume fraction using contrast-enhanced CT is useful in differentiating intrahepatic cholangiocellular carcinoma from hepatocellular carcinoma

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2023
ObjectivesTo evaluate whether tumor extracellular volume fraction (fECV) on contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) aids in the differentiation between intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).MethodsIn this ...

What Triggers the Interictal Epileptic Spike? A Multimodal Multiscale Analysis of the Dynamic of Synaptic and Non-synaptic Neuronal and Vascular Compartments Using Electrical and Optical Measurements

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2021
Interictal spikes (IISs) may result from a disturbance of the intimate functional balance between various neuronal (synaptic and non-synaptic), vascular, and metabolic compartments.

Diffusion in Brain Extracellular Space [PDF]

open access: yesPhysiological Reviews, 2008
Diffusion in the extracellular space (ECS) of the brain is constrained by the volume fraction and the tortuosity and a modified diffusion equation represents the transport behavior of many molecules in the brain. Deviations from the equation reveal loss of molecules across the blood-brain barrier, through cellular uptake, binding, or other mechanisms ...

The Lysosomal Sequestration of Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors and Drug Resistance

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2019
The Lysosomal sequestration of weak-base anticancer drugs is one putative mechanism for resistance to chemotherapy but it has never been directly proven. We addressed the question of whether the lysosomal sequestration of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs)
