exocytosis or of lamellipodial retraction and extension, the cell would 'automatically' adjust the membrane area to compensate for changes in morphology, growth or secretory activity. For example ...

Using several types of cancer cells, we show that tumor cells treated with CCCP can be induced to switch over to secretory mitophagy by treatment with Bafilomycin A1, which blocks the fusion of ...

Neurons are cells in the body that are responsible for transmitting electrical signals through the nervous system. Different types of neurons affect the ability to move, which begins as an impulse, or ...

[1–4] The insulin secretory defect in T2D is multifactorial ... We have identified four genetic variants that confer reduced β-cell exocytosis and six variants that interfere with insulin ...

Noise-induced ribbon synapse loss in the mouse basal cochlear region does not reduce inner hair cell exocytosis ...

Eating foods high in key nutrients, including iron, folic acid, and vitamin B12, and limiting alcohol may help increase your red blood cell count. Red blood cells are the most common cells in ...

In 2009 a team of biophysicists led by Anthony A. Hyman of the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics in Dresden, Germany, were studying specklelike structures called P ...

Diabetes. 2012;61(7):1726-1733. We examined exocytosis by measurements of cell capacitance that monitor the increase in cell area that results when secretory granules fuse with the plasma membrane.

This important work identifies a non-autophagic role for ATG5 in lysosomal repair and the trafficking of the glucose transporter GLUT1 to the cell surface, mediated through the retromer complex. The ...
