Microvesicles and exosomes: new players in metabolic and cardiovascular disease [PDF]
The past decade has witnessed an exponential increase in the number of publications referring to extracellular vesicles (EVs). For many years considered to be extracellular debris, EVs are now seen as novel mediators of endocrine signalling via cell-to ...

Two-way traffic on the road to plasma membrane repair [PDF]
Ca(2+) influx through plasma membrane wounds triggers a rapid-repair response that is essential for cell survival. Earlier studies showed that repair requires the exocytosis of intracellular vesicles. Exocytosis was thought to promote resealing by 'patching' the plasma membrane lesion or by facilitating bilayer restoration through reduction in membrane

Sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor 1 is required for MMP-2 function in bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells: implications for cytoskeleton assembly and proliferation [PDF]
Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cell- (BM-MSC-) based therapy is a promising option for regenerative medicine. An important role in the control of the processes influencing the BM-MSC therapeutic efficacy, namely, extracellular matrix remodelling

Antibodies aggravate the development of ischemic heart failure [PDF]
Heart-specific antibodies have been widely associated with myocardial infarction (MI). However, it remains unclear whether autoantibodies mediate disease progression or are a byproduct of cardiac injury. To disambiguate the role of immunoglobulins in MI,

Tissue-Specific Orchestration of Gilthead Sea Bream Resilience to Hypoxia and High Stocking Density [PDF]
Two different O-2 levels (normoxia: 75-85% O-2 saturation; moderate hypoxia: 42-43% O-2 saturation) and stocking densities (LD: 9.5, and HD: 19 kg/m(3)) were assessed on gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata) in a 3-week feeding trial.

Into the breach: how cells cope with wounds [PDF]
Repair of wounds to individual cells is crucial for organisms to survive daily physiological or environmental stresses, as well as pathogen assaults, which disrupt the plasma membrane.

Spatial Organization of the Cytoskeleton enhances Cargo Delivery to Specific Target Areas on the Plasma Membrane of Spherical Cells [PDF]
Intracellular transport is vital for the proper functioning and survival of a cell. Cargo (proteins, vesicles, organelles, etc.) is transferred from its place of creation to its target locations via molecular motor assisted transport along cytoskeletal ...
