Intracellular transport driven by cytoskeletal motors: General mechanisms and defects
Cells are strongly out-of-equilibrium systems driven by continuous energy supply. They carry out many vital functions requiring active transport of various ingredients and organelles, some being small, others being large.

Managing intracellular transport [PDF]
Formation and normal function of neuronal synapses are intimately dependent on the delivery to and removal of biological materials from synapses by the intracellular transport machinery. Indeed, defects in intracellular transport contribute to the development and aggravation of neurodegenerative disorders.

Intracellular cholesterol transport [PDF]
Cholesterol is the single most abundant lipid species in mammalian cells. More than 2×109 years of evolution designed this molecule to perfectly fit into phospholipid bilayers regulating the fluidity, permeability and bending stiffness of biological membranes.

Intracellular transports and atherogenesis [PDF]
There is a great progress in understanding the cellular and molecular aspects of atherosclerosis, which is one of the leading causes of death. Yet, there are questions regarding the cellular and metabolic mechanisms that lead to atherogenesis. Among the many factors that influence this process, food plays a significant role.

Branched Actin Maintains Acetylated Microtubule Network in the Early Secretory Pathway
In the early secretory pathway, the delivery of anterograde cargoes from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) exit sites (ERES) to the Golgi apparatus is a multi-step transport process occurring via the ER-Golgi intermediate compartment (IC, also called ERGIC).

Chromothripsis—Explosion in Genetic Science
Chromothripsis has been defined as complex patterns of alternating genes copy number changes (normal, gain or loss) along the length of a chromosome or chromosome segment (International System for Human Cytogenomic Nomenclature 2020).
