The Metabolic Response of Various Cell Lines to Microtubule-Driven Uptake of Lipid- and Polymer-Coated Layer-by-Layer Microcarriers

open access: yesPharmaceutics, 2021
Lipid structures, such as liposomes or micelles, are of high interest as an approach to support the transport and delivery of active agents as a drug delivery system.

Structure of the CLC-1 chloride channel from Homo sapiens. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
CLC channels mediate passive Cl- conduction, while CLC transporters mediate active Cl- transport coupled to H+ transport in the opposite direction. The distinction between CLC-0/1/2 channels and CLC transporters seems undetectable by amino acid sequence.

Coupling fission and exit of RAB6 vesicles at Golgi hotspots through kinesin-myosin interactions

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Actin and microtubules play important roles in Golgi structure and function but how they are connected is poorly understood. Here the authors show that KIF20A is involved in the fission process and, in association with Myosin II, serves to anchor RAB6 on

Agent-Based Modeling of Intracellular Transport

open access: yes, 2011
We develop an agent-based model of the motion and pattern formation of vesicles. These intracellular particles can be found in four different modes of (undirected and directed) motion and can fuse with other vesicles. While the size of vesicles follows a

Organic Cation Transporter 3: A Cellular Mechanism Underlying Rapid, Non-Genomic Glucocorticoid Regulation of Monoaminergic Neurotransmission, Physiology, and Behavior [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Corticosteroid hormones act at intracellular glucocorticoid receptors (GR) and mineralocorticoid receptors (MR) to alter gene expression, leading to diverse physiological and behavioral responses.

Optimization of a Modular Nanotransporter Design for Targeted Intracellular Delivery of Photosensitizer

open access: yesPharmaceutics
Modular nanotransporters (MNTs) are drug delivery systems for targeted cancer treatment. As MNTs are composed of several modules, they offer the advantage of high specificity and biocompatibility in delivering drugs to the target compartment of cancer ...

Measuring intracellular concentration of hydrogen peroxide with the use of genetically encoded H2O2 biosensor HyPer

open access: yesRedox Biology, 2019
In this study, we propose a method for quantification of average hydrogen peroxide concentration within a living cell that is based on the use of genetically encoded H2O2 biosensor HyPer.

Vitamin A Transport Mechanism of the Multitransmembrane Cell-Surface Receptor STRA6. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Vitamin A has biological functions as diverse as sensing light for vision, regulating stem cell differentiation, maintaining epithelial integrity, promoting immune competency, regulating learning and memory, and acting as a key developmental morphogen ...

Routing of the RAB6 secretory pathway towards the lysosome related organelle of melanocytes

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
The anterograde movement of Golgi-derived vesicles requires the small GTPase RAB6, while its effector ELKS targets these vesicles to particular areas of the plasma membrane.

Non-Markovian Persistent Random Walk Model for Intracellular Transport

open access: yesFractal and Fractional, 2023
Transport of vesicles and organelles inside cells consists of constant-speed bidirectional movement along cytoskeletal filaments interspersed by periods of idling. This transport shows many features of anomalous diffusion. In this paper, we develop a non-
