Claudin-derived peptides are internalized via specific endocytosis pathways.
Claudin proteins are involved in the paracellular tightening of epithelia and endothelia. Their internalization, which can be modulated by extracellular stimuli, for example, proinflammatory cytokines, is a prerequisite for the regulation of the paracellular barrier to allow, for instance, cell migration or drug delivery. The internalization of peptide sequences of claudins is completely unknow...
متن کاملMycoplasma pneumoniae CARDS Toxin Is Internalized via Clathrin-Mediated Endocytosis
Bacterial toxins possess specific mechanisms of binding and uptake by mammalian cells. Mycoplasma pneumoniae CARDS (Community Acquired Respiratory Distress Syndrome) toxin is a 68 kDa protein, which demonstrates high binding affinity to human surfactant protein-A and exhibits specific biological activities including mono-ADP ribosylation and vacuolization. These properties lead to inflammatory ...
متن کاملSmall misfolded Tau species are internalized via bulk endocytosis and anterogradely and retrogradely transported in neurons.
The accumulation of Tau into aggregates is associated with key pathological events in frontotemporal lobe degeneration (FTD-Tau) and Alzheimer disease (AD). Recent data have shown that misfolded Tau can be internalized by cells in vitro (Frost, B., Jacks, R. L., and Diamond, M. I. (2009) J. Biol. Chem. 284, 12845-12852) and propagate pathology in vivo (Clavaguera, F., Bolmont, T., Crowther, R. ...

متن کاملProopiomelanocortin-derived Peptides Are Synthesized
Proopiomelanocortin (POMC), the precursor for melanotropic, corticotropic, and opioid peptides such as a-melanocytestimulating hormone (aMSH), ACTH, and other related peptides, was originally identified as a product of the pituitary gland. However, recent evidence shows that POMC products can also be produced by nonpituitary tissues. Because keratinocytes, the major constituent of the epidermis...
