Efferocytosis in Health and Disease

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 6, Issue 12, December 2025.
Efferocytosis in health and disease. Efferocytosis integrates apoptotic cell recognition, engulfment, digestion, and reprogramming to link cell clearance with tissue repair. Molecular checkpoints balance “eat‐me” signals such as phosphatidylserine against inhibitory “don't‐eat‐me” cues like CD47, while TAM receptors, scavenger receptors, and integrins ...

Molecular Mechanisms of Secreting Vesicle Biogenesis and Secretion in Chronic Degenerative Diseases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Regulated trafficking and secretion of insulin by the β cell of the endocrine pancreas is critical to maintain our body energy homeostasis. Disruption of these processes typically leads to hyperglycemia and the complications of diabetes.

Mitochondria and neuroprotection in stroke: Cationic arginine-rich peptides (CARPs) as a novel class of mitochondria-targeted neuroprotective therapeutics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Stroke is the second leading cause of death globally and represents a major cause of devastating long-term disability. Despite sustained efforts to develop clinically effective neuroprotective therapies, presently there is no clinically available ...

Successive translocation into and out of the mitochondrial matrix [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
We investigated the import and sorting pathways of cytochrome b2 and cytochrome c1, which are functionally located in the intermembrane space of mitochondria.

Molecular Electroporation and the Transduction of Oligoarginines

open access: yes, 2009
Certain short polycations, such as TAT and polyarginine, rapidly pass through the plasma membranes of mammalian cells by an unknown mechanism called transduction as well as by endocytosis and macropinocytosis.

Impaired Cleavage of Preproinsulin Signal Peptide Linked to Autosomal-Dominant Diabetes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Recently, missense mutations upstream of preproinsulin’s signal peptide (SP) cleavage site were reported to cause mutant INS gene-induced diabetes of youth (MIDY).

Efficient processing of an antigenic sequence for presentation by MHC class I molecules depends on its neighboring residues in the protein [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
Processing of endogenously synthesized proteins generates short peptides that are presented by MHC class I molecules to CD8 T lymphocytes. Here it is documented that not only the sequence of the presented peptide but also the residues by which it is ...

Cellular Internalization of Human Calcitonin Derived Peptides in MDCK Monolayers: A Comparative Study with Tat(47-57) and Penetratin(43-58) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Purpose. The objective of this study was to evaluate key motif requirements of human calcitonin (hCT)-derived peptides for the permeation through the plasma membrane of MDCK monolayers, as epithelial model. Methods.

Atrial Natriuretic Peptide, a Regulator of Nuclear Factor-κB Activation in Vivo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Natriuretic peptides (NPs) comprise a family of vasoactive hormones that play important roles in the regulation of cardiovascular and renal homeostasis.
