Perforin forms transient pores on the target cell plasma membrane to facilitate rapid access of granzymes during killer cell attack.
Cytotoxic lymphocytes serve a key role in immune homeostasis by eliminating virus-infected and transformed target cells through the perforin-dependent delivery of proapoptotic granzymes. However, the mechanism of granzyme entry into cells remains unresolved. Using biochemical approaches combined with time-lapse microscopy of human primary cytotoxic lymphocytes engaging their respective targets,...
متن کاملPathophysiology of ischemic cell death: II. Changes in plasma membrane permeability and cell volume.
Isolated rabbit retinas were subjected for various durations to several types of ischemic insult, and then returned to control medium for periods of up to 4 3/4 h before measurements were made of total water, inulin-free water, and plasma membrane permeability as assessed by mannitol penetration into the inulin-free water. Neither anoxia nor substrate deprivation alone, for as long as 50 min, c...
متن کاملFABRICATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OFHIGH PERFORMANCE CERAMIC MEMBRANE HAVINGNANOMETRE PORES
Abstract: In this study, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were grown directly in the pores of micro porous pyrex membranesand consequently ceramic membranes with very fine pores and high porosity were achieved. Our experiment was donein two stages. Initially cobalt powder with different percent was homogeneously mixed with pyrex powder. In order toproduce row membranes, each of these mixtures were compa...
متن کاملMembrane pores induced by magainin.
Magainin, found in the skin of Xenopus laevis, belongs to a broad class of antimicrobial peptides which kill bacteria by permeabilizing the cytoplasmic membrane but do not lyse eukaryotic cells. The 23-residue peptide has been shown to form an amphiphilic helix when associated with membranes. However, its molecular mechanism of action has been controversial. Oriented circular dichroism has dete...
متن کاملOxidative membrane damage and its involvement in gamma radiation-induced apoptotic cell death.
Background: Recent results have provided increasing evidence to support involvement of membrane damage in the mechanism of ionizing radiation induced killing of mammalian cells. These findings have stimulated renewed interest in evaluating the damage to membrane as a primary initiator in radiation-induced cell killing especially in apoptotic death. The present study was aimed to gain deeper ins...
