Albumin uptake in human podocytes: a possible role for the cubilin-amnionless (CUBAM) complex [PDF]
Albumin re-uptake is a receptor-mediated pathway located in renal proximal tubuli. There is increasing evidence of glomerular protein handling by podocytes, but little is known about the mechanism behind this process.

A "ligand-targeting" peptide-drug conjugate: Targeted intracellular drug delivery by VEGF-binding helix-loop-helix peptides via receptor-mediated endocytosis. [PDF]
As a new alternative to antibody-drug conjugates, we generated "ligand-targeting" peptide-drug conjugates (PDCs), which utilize receptor-mediated endocytosis for targeted intracellular drug delivery.

Role of Endocytosis Proteins in Gefitinib-Mediated EGFR Internalisation in Glioma Cells
EGFR (epidermal growth factor receptor), a member of the ErbB tyrosine kinase receptor family, is a clinical therapeutic target in numerous solid tumours. EGFR overexpression in glioblastoma (GBM) drives cell invasion and tumour progression.

Endocytic Adaptors in Cardiovascular Disease
Endocytosis is the process of actively transporting materials into a cell by membrane engulfment. Traditionally, endocytosis was divided into three forms: phagocytosis (cell eating), pinocytosis (cell drinking), and the more selective receptor-mediated ...

Different contributions of clathrin- and caveolae-mediated endocytosis of vascular endothelial cadherin to lipopolysaccharide-induced vascular hyperpermeability. [PDF]
Vascular hyperpermeability induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is a common pathogenic process in cases of severe trauma and sepsis. Vascular endothelial cadherin (VE-cad) is a key regulatory molecule involved in this process, although the detailed ...

Rapid insulin-dependent endocytosis of the insulin receptor by caveolae in primary adipocytes. [PDF]
BACKGROUND:The insulin receptor is localized in caveolae and is dependent on caveolae or cholesterol for signaling in adipocytes. When stimulated with insulin, the receptor is internalized.

Rapid Clathrin-Mediated Uptake of Recombinant α-Gal-A to Lysosome Activates Autophagy
Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) with recombinant alpha-galactosidase A (rh-α-Gal A) is the standard treatment for Fabry disease (FD). ERT has shown a significant impact on patients; however, there is still morbidity and mortality in FD, resulting in ...

Internalization mechanisms of the epidermal growth factor receptor after activation with different ligands. [PDF]
The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) regulates normal growth and differentiation, but dysregulation of the receptor or one of the EGFR ligands is involved in the pathogenesis of many cancers.

The nucleation of receptor-mediated endocytosis. [PDF]
A theory of the mechanical origins of receptor-mediated endocytosis shows that a spontaneous membrane complex formation can provide the stimulus for a local membrane motion toward the cytosol. This motion is identified with a nucleation stage of receptor-mediated endocytosis. When membrane complexes cluster, membrane deformation is predicted to be most

The role of the actin cytoskeleton during receptor-mediated endocytosis (RME) has been well characterized in yeast for many years. Only more recently has the interplay between the actin cytoskeleton and RME been extensively explored in mammalian cells ...
