Congestive heart failure in rats is associated with increased expression and targeting of aquaporin-2 water channel in collecting duct [PDF]
, 1997 We tested whether severe congestive heart failure (CHF), a condition associated with excess free-water retention, is accompanied by altered regulation of the vasopressin-regulated water channel, aquaporin-2 (AQP2), in the renal collecting duct.

Alpha-toxin induces programmed cell death of human T cells, B cells, and monocytes during USA300 infection. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 This investigation examines the influence of alpha-toxin (Hla) during USA300 infection of human leukocytes. Survival of an USA300 isogenic deletion mutant of hla (USA300Δhla) in human blood was comparable to the parental wild-type strain and ...

Plasma membrane association by N-acylation governs PKG function in Toxoplasma gondii [PDF]
, 2017 Cyclic GMP (cGMP)-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase G [PKG]) is essential for microneme secretion, motility, invasion, and egress in apicomplexan parasites, However, the separate roles of two isoforms of the kinase that are expressed by some ...

Annexin A6 mediates calcium-dependent exosome secretion during plasma membrane repair
eLife, 2023 Exosomes are an extracellular vesicle (EV) subtype that is secreted upon the fusion of multivesicular bodies (MVBs) with the plasma membrane. Exosomes may participate in intercellular communication and have utility as disease biomarkers; however, little ...

Animal cell cytokinesis: the role of dynamic changes in the plasma membrane proteome and lipidome [PDF]
, 2016 In animal cells, cytokinesis is characterised by the formation of the mitotic spindle that signals the assembly of an actomyosin ring between the spindle poles.
