Redistribution of cell surface receptors induced by cell-cell contact
Cell surface lectin receptors underwent rapid redistribution after embryonic Xenopus myotomal muscle cells were manipulated into contact in culture. Soybean agglutinin (SBA) receptors became highly concentrated at the contact area and concanavalin A (Con

A viral CTL escape mutation leading to immunoglobulin-like transcript 4-mediated functional inhibition of myelomonocytic cells [PDF]
Viral mutational escape can reduce or abrogate recognition by the T cell receptor (TCR) of virus-specific CD8+ T cells. However, very little is known about the impact of cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) epitope mutations on interactions between peptide–major

Cell surface receptors for herpes simplex virus are heparan sulfate proteoglycans
The role of cell surface heparan sulfate in herpes simplex virus (HSV) infection was investigated using CHO cell mutants defective in various aspects of glycosaminoglycan synthesis.

An integrated mathematical model of cellular cholesterol biosynthesis and lipoprotein metabolism [PDF]
Cholesterol regulation is an important aspect of human health. In this work we bring together and extend two recent mathematical models describing cholesterol biosynthesis and lipoprotein endocytosis to create an integrated model of lipoprotein ...

Heterogeneity of cell surface endothelin receptors.
Two distinct cell surface endothelin receptors were identified, namely a 73-kDa protein referred to as ET-R1 and a 60-kDa protein named ET-R2. ET-R1 was expressed as the sole endothelin receptor on rat A10 vascular smooth muscle cells and C6 glial cells.

SARM1 is essential for NMDA receptor-dependent endocytosis of AMPA receptors in hippocampal neurons
Long-term depression (LTD) is a form of synaptic plasticity thought to be the cellular basis of experience-dependent learning and memory. LTD is caused by an activity-dependent decrease in cell surface α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid

P2X receptors: epithelial ion channels and regulators of salt and water transport. [PDF]
When the results from electrophysiological studies of renal epithelial cells are combined with data from in vivo tubule microperfusion experiments and immunohistochemical surveys of the nephron, the accumulated evidence suggests that ATP-gated ion ...

Interactions of a neuronal cell line (PC12) with laminin, collagen IV, and fibronectin: identification of integrin-related glycoproteins involved in attachment and process outgrowth. [PDF]
Neuronal responses to extracellular matrix (ECM) constituents are likely to play an important role in nervous system development and regeneration. We have studied the interactions of a neuron-like rat pheochromocytoma cell line, PC12, with ECM protein ...
