Annexins in plasma membrane repair

Biological Chemistry, 2016
Abstract Disruption of the plasma membrane poses deadly threat to eukaryotic cells and survival requires a rapid membrane repair system. Recent evidence reveal various plasma membrane repair mechanisms, which are required for cells to cope with membrane lesions including membrane fusion and replacement strategies, remodeling of cortical ...

Repairing the tears: dysferlin in muscle membrane repair

Trends in Molecular Medicine, 2003
Many muscular dystrophies arise from enhanced muscle degeneration, but one muscular dystrophy subtype has now been shown to arise from defective muscle membrane repair. Mutations in the gene encoding dysferlin cause muscular dystrophy, and recent work has demonstrated a role for this protein in resealing muscle membrane tears.

The mechanism of cell membrane repair

Zygote, 1999
Disruption of plasma membranes is a widespread, common and normal event that occurs in many mechanically challenged tissues (McNeil & Steinhardt, 1997). After injury to the plasma membrane, rapid resealing of the membrane occurs with little loss of intracellular contents.Analysis of plasma membrane repair in the sea urchin egg and early embryos ...

A kinetic model of membrane repair

Canadian Journal of Physiology and Pharmacology, 1970
Two microelectrodes are inserted into a Xenopus laevis egg. Rectangular current pulses are injected through one microelectrode and the voltage induced across the cell membrane is measured via the second electrode. The transmembrane resistance, as deduced from the injected current and the measured voltage, is taken as a measure of membrane integrity ...

Calcium and Membrane Repair

2010
As more and more studies utilize cell-penetrating peptides to deliver pharmacologically interesting substances, there is a growing need to understand their effect on the plasma membrane. If a cell-penetrating peptide together with its cargo is to be used as a drug, it is necessary to understand how the conjugate interacts with the plasma membrane to ...

Ceramide in Plasma Membrane Repair

2013
The perforation of the plasmalemma by pore-forming toxins causes an influx of Ca(2+) and an efflux of cytoplasmic proteins. In order to ensure cellular survival, lesions have to be identified, plugged and removed from the membrane. The Ca(2+)-driven fusion of lysosomes with the plasma membrane leads to hydrolysis of sphingomyelin by acid ...

Lysosomes and plasma membrane repair

2019
The ability of repairing damages on the plasma membrane is crucial for cell survival. When damaged, eukaryotic cells are able to recover plasma membrane integrity within a few seconds, thus avoiding cytoplasm leakage and cell death. The process is driven by the influx of extracellular calcium which triggers a multitude of intracellular effects that ...
