Electron microscopic studies of the assembly, intracellular transport, and secretion of chylomicrons by rat intestine

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1977
A detailed ultrastructural investigation of the assembly, intracellular transport, and secretion of chylomicrons by rat proximal jejunal intestinal cells was performed in rats fed corn oil.

Off the wall: The rhyme and reason of Neurospora crassa hyphal morphogenesis

open access: yesThe Cell Surface, 2019
The fungal cell wall building processes are the ultimate determinants of hyphal shape. In Neurospora crassa the main cell wall components, β-1,3-glucan and chitin, are synthesized by enzymes conveyed by specialized vesicles to the hyphal tip.

Dietary protein increases T-cell-independent sIgA production through changes in gut microbiota-derived extracellular vesicles

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Secretory IgA plays vital roles interfacing between the host immune system and the resident microbiota at the mucosal surface. Here the authors explore the effect of dietary protein on the production of secretory IgA, driven by the production of ...

Sorting secretory proteins

open access: yeseLife, 2023
A receptor protein called TGN46 has an important role in sorting secretory proteins into vesicles going to different destinations inside cells.

Morphological docking of secretory vesicles [PDF]

open access: yesHistochemistry and Cell Biology, 2010
Calcium-dependent secretion of neurotransmitters and hormones is essential for brain function and neuroendocrine-signaling. Prior to exocytosis, neurotransmitter-containing vesicles dock to the target membrane. In electron micrographs of neurons and neuroendocrine cells, like chromaffin cells many synaptic vesicles (SVs) and large dense-core vesicles ...

Gi Protein Modulation of the Potassium Channel TASK-2 Mediates Vesicle Osmotic Swelling to Facilitate the Fusion of Aquaporin-2 Water Channel Containing Vesicles

open access: yesCells, 2018
Vesicle fusion is a fundamental cell biological process similar from yeasts to humans. For secretory vesicles, swelling is considered a step required for the expulsion of intravesicular content.

Ultrastructural localization of plasma retinol-binding protein in rat liver

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1990
Immunocytochemical studies were carried out to examine the subcellular localization of plasma retinol-binding protein (RBP) in rat liver. The studies used normal, retinol-deficient, and retinol-repleted retinol-deficient rats with or without colchicine ...

The protein architecture of human secretory vesicles reveals differential regulation of signaling molecule secretion by protein kinases. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Secretory vesicles are required for release of chemical messengers to mediate intercellular signaling among human biological systems. It is necessary to define the organization of the protein architecture of the 'human' dense core secretory vesicles ...

Excitatory and Inhibitory Neurons in the Hippocampus Exhibit Molecularly Distinct Large Dense Core Vesicles

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2016
Hippocampal interneurons comprise a diverse family of inhibitory neurons which function is critical for fine information processing. Along with gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), interneurons secrete a myriad of neuroactive substances via secretory vesicles

Secretory vesicles are preferentially targeted to areas of low molecular SNARE density.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Intercellular communication is commonly mediated by the regulated fusion, or exocytosis, of vesicles with the cell surface. SNARE (soluble N-ethymaleimide sensitive factor attachment protein receptor) proteins are the catalytic core of the secretory ...
