Annexins in plasma membrane repair
Biological Chemistry, 2016Abstract 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 ...

An emergency response team for membrane repair
Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology, 2005On demand, rapid Ca(2+)-triggered homotypic and exocytic membrane-fusion events are required to repair a torn plasma membrane, and we propose that this emergency-based fusion differs fundamentally from other rapid, triggered fusion reactions. Emergency fusion might use a specialized protein and organelle emergency response team that can simultaneously ...

Repairing the tears: dysferlin in muscle membrane repair
Trends in Molecular Medicine, 2003Many 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.

A kinetic model of membrane repair
Canadian Journal of Physiology and Pharmacology, 1970Two 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 ...

Plasma membrane repair in plants
Trends in Plant Science, 2009Resealing is the membrane-repair process that enables cells to survive disruption, preventing the loss of irreplaceable cell types and eliminating the cost of replacing injured cells. Given that failure in the resealing process in animal cells causes diverse types of muscular dystrophy, plasma membrane repair has been extensively studied in these ...

The mechanism of cell membrane repair
Zygote, 1999Disruption 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 ...

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
2013The 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
2019The 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 ...
