FAK activity in cancer‐associated fibroblasts is a prognostic marker and a druggable key metastatic player in pancreatic cancer

open access: yesEMBO Molecular Medicine, 2020
Cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are considered the most abundant type of stromal cells in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), playing a critical role in tumour progression and chemoresistance; however, a druggable target on CAFs has not yet ...

Calmodulin antagonists stimulate renin secretion and inhibit renin synthesis in vitro [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
To find out whether calmodulin activity could be a common denominator for the cellular control of renin secretion and synthesis, we have examined the effects of calmodulin antagonists on the secretion and the synthesis of renin in primary cultures of ...

Prediction of type III secretion signals in genomes of gram-negative bacteria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background: Pathogenic bacteria infecting both animals as well as plants use various mechanisms to transport virulence factors across their cell membranes and channel these proteins into the infected host cell.

Differentiation of Trafficking Pathways at Golgi Entry Core Compartments and Post-Golgi Subdomains

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Eukaryotic cells have developed specialized membrane structures called organelles, which compartmentalize cellular functions and chemical reactions. Recent improvements in microscopy and membrane compartment isolation techniques are now sophisticating ...

Doc2B acts as a calcium sensor for vesicle priming requiring synaptotagmin-1, Munc13-2 and SNAREs

open access: yeseLife, 2017
Doc2B is a cytosolic protein with binding sites for Munc13 and Tctex-1 (dynein light chain), and two C2-domains that bind to phospholipids, Ca2+ and SNAREs.

Cystic Fibrosis of the Pancreas: The Role of CFTR Channel in the Regulation of Intracellular Ca2+ Signaling and Mitochondrial Function in the Exocrine Pancreas

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common genetic disorder that causes a significant damage in secretory epithelial cells due to the defective ion flux across the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) Cl- channel.

Involvement of endothelium-derived relaxing factor in the pressure control of renin secretion from isolated perfused kidney [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Using isolated rat kidneys perfused at controlled pressure, we examined a potential role of endothelium-derived relaxing factor (EDRF) in the pressure control of renin secretion.

Efficient Autotransporter-Mediated Extracellular Secretion of a Heterologous Recombinant Protein by Escherichia coli

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2023
The autotransporter protein secretion system has been used previously to target the secretion of heterologous proteins to the bacterial cell surface and the extracellular milieu at the laboratory scale.

Environmental salinity determines the specificity and need for tat-dependent secretion of the YwbN protein in bacillus subtilis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Twin-arginine protein translocation (Tat) pathways are required for transport of folded proteins across bacterial, archaeal and chloroplast membranes. Recent studies indicate that Tat has evolved into a mainstream pathway for protein secretion in certain
