H-Ras signaling and K-Ras signaling are differentially dependent on endocytosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
dEndocytosis is required for efficient mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activation by activated growth factor receptors. We examined if H-Ras and K-Ras proteins, which are distributed across different plasma membrane microdomains, have equal ...

Mendelian randomization analysis identifies HLA‐A and AP2M1 as genetic biomarkers linked to immune–endocytic crosstalk in intervertebral disc degeneration

open access: yesJournal of Cell Communication and Signaling, Volume 20, Issue 1, March 2026.
HLA‐A and AP2M1 are identified as key endocytosis‐related biomarkers that modulate immune–endocytic crosstalk via mTOR signaling to regulate cell survival, immune infiltration, and the progression of intervertebral disc degeneration. Abstract Intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) is a major contributor to chronic spinal disorders, yet the role of ...

Actin dynamics controlled by IqgC, a RasGAP at the crossroads between the IQGAP and fungal GAP1 families

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, Volume 16, Issue 2, Page 268-278, February 2026.
IqgC is a RasGAP from Dictyostelium discoideum. IqgC binds RasG via its RasGAP domain and deactivates it on macroendocytic cups, thereby suppressing the uptake of fluid and particles. IqgC has a positive effect on cell‐substratum adhesion, and its RGCt domain is required for recruitment to ventral foci.

Complex polarity: building multicellular tissues through apical membrane traffic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The formation of distinct subdomains of the cell surface is crucial for multicellular organism development. The most striking example of this is apical-basal polarization.

Spatiotemporal recruitment of the ubiquitin-specific protease USP8 directs endosome maturation

open access: yeseLife
The spatiotemporal transition of small GTPase Rab5 to Rab7 is crucial for early-to-late endosome maturation, yet the precise mechanism governing Rab5-to-Rab7 switching remains elusive.

TUFT1 promotes metastasis and chemoresistance in triple negative breast cancer through the TUFT1/Rab5/Rac1 pathway

open access: yesCancer Cell International, 2019
Background Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a breast cancer (BC) subtype that is characterized by its strong invasion and a high risk of metastasis. However, the specific mechanisms underlying these phenotypes are unclear. TUFT1 plays an important

FgVps9, a Rab5 GEF, Is Critical for DON Biosynthesis and Pathogenicity in Fusarium graminearum

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Rab GTPases play an important role in vesicle-mediated membrane trafficking in eukaryotes. Previous studies have demonstrated that deletion of RAB5/VPS21 reduces endocytosis and virulence of fungal phytopathogens in their host plants.

Monoubiquitination of syntaxin 3 leads to retrieval from the basolateral plasma membrane and facilitates cargo recruitment to exosomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Syntaxin 3 (Stx3), a SNARE protein located and functioning at the apical plasma membrane of epithelial cells, is required for epithelial polarity.

Research Progress of Exosome‐Derived microRNA in Alcohol Use Disorders: A Critical Review

open access: yesAddiction Biology, Volume 31, Issue 2, February 2026.
Exosome‐derived microRNAs represent stable and mechanistically active mediators of alcohol‐induced multi‐organ injury. This review summarizes how chronic alcohol exposure reshapes exosomal miRNA cargo across the liver, immune system, and brain, highlighting key miRNAs with diagnostic value and therapeutic potential.

Vesicular transport of a ribonucleoprotein to mitochondria

open access: yesBiology Open, 2014
Intracellular trafficking of viruses and proteins commonly occurs via the early endosome in a process involving Rab5. The RNA Import Complex (RIC)-RNA complex is taken up by mammalian cells and targeted to mitochondria.
