Sphingolipid metabolic flow controls phosphoinositide turnover at the trans ‐Golgi network

Giovanni D'Angelo, Howard Riezman, Riccardo Rizzo

Sphingolipids are membrane lipids globally required for eukaryotic life. The sphingolipid content varies among endomembranes with pre- and post-Golgi compartments being poor and rich in sphingolipids, respectively. Due to this different sphingolipid conten ...

Membrane vesicle secretion and prophage induction in multidrug-resistant Stenotrophomonas maltophilia in response to ciprofloxacin stress

Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg

Several bacterial species produce membrane vesicles (MVs) in response to antibiotic stress. However, the biogenesis and role of MVs in bacterial antibiotic resistance mechanisms have remained unclear. Here, we studied the effect of the fluoroquinolone cipr ...

Wiley-Blackwell2017

Pore-forming toxins (PFTs) form holes in membranes causing one of the most catastrophic damages to a target cell. Target organisms have evolved a regulated response against PFTs damage including cell membrane repair. This ability of cells strongly depends ...

Controlling and Monitoring Intracellular Delivery of Anticancer Polymer Nanomedicines

Harm-Anton Klok, Claudia Battistella

Polymer nanomedicines are very attractive to improve the delivery of chemotherapeutics. Polymer conjugates and other polymer-based nanocarriers allow to increase plasma half-life and drug bioavailability and can also be guided toward tumors using passive a ...

Use of VacA as a Vaccine Antigen

Dominique Velin, Mati André Marie Moyat

One of the major toxins secreted by H. pylori is the Vacuolating cytotoxin A (VacA) named after its ability to induce the formation of "vacuole"-like membrane vesicles in the cytoplasm of gastric cells. VacA has been associated with the disruption of mitoc ...

Mdpi Ag2016

Fluorescent probes are very important in basic research and in medicine, because of their sensitivity, versatility and quantitative capabilities. They allow the imaging of tissues or cellular compartments and the monitoring of biological events in vivo. An ...

Translocon component Sec62 acts in endoplasmic reticulum turnover during stress recovery

Maurizio Molinari

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a site of protein biogenesis in eukaryotic cells. Perturbing ER homeostasis activates stress programs collectively called the unfolded protein response (UPR). The UPR enhances production of ER-resident chaperones and enzym ...

Nature Publishing Group2016

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the site of maturation for secretory and membrane proteins in eukaryotic cells. The lumen of the mammalian ER contains >20 members of the protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) superfamily, which ensure formation of the correct ...

Close Encounter of the Third Kind: The ER Meets Endosomes at Fission Sites

Françoise Gisou van der Goot Grunberg

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) forms functional contacts with several cellular organelles and regulates processes such as mitochondrial fission. In a recent issue of Cell, Rowland et al. (2014) extend these findings to endosomes, showing that the ER contac ...

How Viruses Hijack the ERAD Tuning Machinery

Maurizio Molinari, Riccardo Bernasconi

An essential step during the intracellular life cycle of many positive-strand RNA viruses is the rearrangement of host cell membranes to generate membrane-bound replication platforms. For example, Nidovirales and Flaviviridae subvert the membrane of the en ...
