Promoting tau secretion and propagation by hyperactive p300/CBP via autophagy-lysosomal pathway in tauopathy. [PDF]
BackgroundThe trans-neuronal propagation of tau has been implicated in the progression of tau-mediated neurodegeneration. There is critical knowledge gap in understanding how tau is released and transmitted, and how that is dysregulated in diseases ...

E-cadherin and cell adhesion: a role in architecture and function in the pancreatic islet [PDF]
Background/Aims: The efficient secretion of insulin from beta-cells requires extensive intra-islet communication. The cell surface adhesion protein epithelial (E)-cadherin (ECAD) establishes and maintains epithelial tissues such as the islets of ...

Regulation of bicarbonate secretion in marine fish intestine by the calcium-sensing receptor [PDF]
In marine fish, high epithelial intestinal HCO3- secretion generates luminal carbonate precipitates of divalent cations that play a key role in water and ion homeostasis.

Pituitary gonadotrophs are a small fraction of the anterior pituitary population, yet they synthesize gonadotropins: luteinizing (LH) and follicle stimulating (FSH), essential for gametogenesis and steroidogenesis.

The secreted secret of PCSK9 [PDF]
Amgen researchers have demonstrated that blocking secreted PCSK9 in mice and nonhuman primates lowers LDL cholesterol. The findings bolster the case for an antibody-based approach to blocking the protein, which is a genetically validated target for hypercholesterolemia.

Heterogeneity in ess transcriptional organization and variable contribution of the Ess/Type VII protein secretion system to virulence across closely related Staphylocccus aureus strains [PDF]
The Type VII protein secretion system, found in Gram-positive bacteria, secretes small proteins, containing a conserved W-x-G amino acid sequence motif, to the growth medium.

Small secreted proteins enable biofilm development in the cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus. [PDF]
Small proteins characterized by a double-glycine (GG) secretion motif, typical of secreted bacterial antibiotics, are encoded by the genomes of diverse cyanobacteria, but their functions have not been investigated to date.

Many pathogenic microbes, including many fungi, produce phospholipases which facilitate survival of the pathogen in vivo, invasion and dissemination throughout the host, expression of virulence traits and evasion of host immune defense mechanisms.
