In-depth proteomics identifies a role for autophagy in controlling reactive oxygen species mediated endothelial permeability [PDF]
Endothelial cells (ECs) form the inner layer of blood vessels and physically separate the blood from the surrounding tissue. To support tissues with nutrients and oxygen, the endothelial monolayer is semipermeable.

Cellular-level versus receptor-level response threshold hierarchies in T-Cell activation [PDF]
Peptide-MHC (pMHC) ligand engagement by T-cell receptors (TCRs) elicits a variety of cellular responses, some of which require substantially more TCR-mediated stimulation than others.

Development of 'Redox Arrays' for identifying novel glutathionylated proteins in the secretome [PDF]
Proteomics techniques for analysing the redox status of individual proteins in complex mixtures tend to identify the same proteins due to their high abundance.

Cx43-hemichannel function and regulation in physiology and pathophysiology: insights from the bovine corneal endothelial cell system and beyond [PDF]
Intercellular communication in primary bovine corneal endothelial cells (BCECs) is mainly driven by the release of extracellular ATP through Cx43 hemichannels.

Microparticles Novel Mechanisms of Intracellular Communication: Implication in Health and Disease
BACKGROUND: The prevailing view that eukaryotic cells are restrained from intercellular exchange of genetic information has been challenged by recent reports on nanotubes, exosomes, apoptotic bodies, and nucleic acid—binding peptides that provide novel ...

"Alternative" endocytic mechanisms exploited by pathogens: new avenues for therapeutic delivery? [PDF]
Some pathogens utilize unique routes to enter cells that may evade the intracellular barriers encountered by the typical clathrin-mediated endocytic pathway.

Food for thought: how nutrients regulate root system architecture [PDF]
The spatial arrangement of the plant root system (root system architecture, RSA) is very sensitive to edaphic and endogenous signals that report on the nutrient status of soil and plant.

The teneurin C-terminal domain possesses nuclease activity and is apoptogenic. [PDF]
Teneurins are type 2 transmembrane proteins expressed by developing neurons during periods of synaptogenesis and apoptosis. Neurons expressing teneurin-1 synapse with other teneurin-1-expressing neurons, and neurons expressing teneurin-2 synapse with ...
