چکیده

In 1934, Lewis described the process ofpinocytosis an invagination of the plasma membrane enclosing a small droplet of fluid. Pinocytosis appeared to be a constitutive process, whereas phagocytosis described some years earlier by Metchnikoffwas regulated. Only within the last two decades has it been recognized that (i) during pinocytosis cells internalize vast amounts of membrane. indeed, more membrane than they synthesize [which led to the concept ofmembrane recycling (Steinman et al., 1983; refer to Schneider et al., 1979 a, b)] and (ii) that receptors mediate selective uptake of both macromolecules and particles. While the term endocytosis has been used to describe these processes, the term receptor-mediated endocytosis is usually reserved for specific uptake of soluble molecules. Broadly speaking, receptor-mediated endocytosis involves the movement of bound ligands from the cell surface to the interior. Whereas some ligands (e.g. ligands specific for the galactose, mannose, mannose 6-phosphate and LDL receptors) are targeted to lysosomes often subserving the nutritional needs of the cell, others (e.g. transferrin and IgG) are recycled to the plasma membrane or targeted to specific plasma membrane domains. Ligands may also be modified on entering the cell [e.g. proteolysis in macrophage endosomes (Diment & Stahl, 1984) or lysosomes, resialylation by passage through the Golgi or removal of iron in the case of transferrin (Klausner et al., 1983; Dautry-Varsat et al., 1983; Harding & Stahl, 1983)]. Intracellular transport and processing vary markedly between different receptor-ligand systems and different cell types, but these systems may be placed in four general categories (Fig. 1, Table 1). 1. Receptors that recycle but target their ligand to lysosomes. This category includes the LDL (Goldstein et al., 1979), asialoglycoprotein (Gal/GalNAc) (Schwartz et al., 1982), mannose 6-phosphate (Fischer et al., 1980 a, b), and mannose receptor systems (Stahl et al., 1980). 2. Receptors that recycle but do not target their ligand to lysosomes. The ligand remains attached to the receptor during its transit through the cell. In polarized cells this may result in transport of ligands between the apical and basolateral surfaces (transcytosis or diacytosis). Examples include transferrin and IgG (in suckling rat ileum) (Abrahamson & Rodewald, 1981). 3. Receptors that do not recycle and target their ligand to lysosomes, including the EGF receptor (Carpenter & Cohen, 1976), the insulin receptor (Kasuga et al., 1981, Carpentier et al., 1978, 1979) (insulin receptors may recycle in some cells) and the Fc receptor (in macrophages) (Mellman & Plutner, 1984) (Fc receptors may recycle under different conditions in some cells). 4. Receptors,that do not recycle and do not transport ligands to lysosomes. Transport of IgA represents a unique mechanism, transcytosis ofIgA results in cleavage and loss ofthe IgA receptor (Kuhn & Kraehenbuhl, 1979; Mostov & Blobel, 1982).

Comparison of transferrin receptor-mediated endocytosis and drug-induced endocytosis in human neonatal and adult RBCs.

Neonatal RBCs can undergo receptor-mediated endocytosis; normal adult RBCs cannot. Previously, we showed that drug-induced endocytosis, which can occur in adult RBCs exposed to amphipathic cations like primaquine, is greatly enhanced in all density-defined fractions of neonatal RBCs. To investigate the similarities and differences between receptor-mediated endocytosis and drug-induced endocytos...

Ubiquitylation of leptin receptor OB-Ra regulates its clathrin-mediated endocytosis.

Leptin receptors are constitutively endocytosed in a ligand-independent manner. To study their endocytosis, leptin receptors OB-Ra and OB-Rb were expressed in HeLa cells. Both receptor isoforms were ubiquitylated, internalized by clathrin-mediated endocytosis and transported to Hrs-positive endosomes after their internalization. Proteasome inhibitors inhibited OB-Ra but not OB-Rb internalizatio...

Th 1 and Th 2 cytokines cooperate to stimulate mannose-receptor-mediated phagocytosis.

The mannose receptor is a macrophage surface receptor that mediates both endocytosis and phagocytosis. Previous work has demonstrated that the prototypical Th 2 cytokine, interleukin-4 (IL-4), increases both cell-surface receptor expression and mannose receptor-mediated endocytosis, whereas the prototypical Th 1 cytokine, interferon-γ (IFN-γ), decreases both surface expression and endocytosis. ...

Receptor-mediated Endocytosis in the Caenorhabditis elegans Oocyte

The Caenorhabditis elegans oocyte is a highly amenable system for forward and reverse genetic analysis of receptor-mediated endocytosis. We describe the use of transgenic strains expressing a vitellogenin::green fluorescent protein (YP170::GFP) fusion to monitor yolk endocytosis by the C. elegans oocyte in vivo. This YP170::GFP reporter was used to assay the functions of C. elegans predicted pr...

M-CSF-induced macropinocytosis increases solute endocytosis but not receptor-mediated endocytosis in mouse macrophages.

Although coated vesicles can mediate both solute and receptor-mediated endocytosis, there are other kinds of endocytic vesicles that contribute to these processes. The relative contributions of these other organelles, particularly regarding solute influx, remains unsettled. Here we describe a physiological uncoupling of solute and receptor-mediated endocytosis that occurs during growth factor-s...

USP17 is required for clathrin mediated endocytosis of epidermal growth factor receptor

Previously we have shown that expression of the deubiquitinating enzyme USP17 is required for cell proliferation and motility. More recently we reported that USP17 deubiquitinates RCE1 isoform 2 and thus regulates the processing of 'CaaX' motif proteins. Here we now show that USP17 expression is induced by epidermal growth factor and that USP17 expression is required for clathrin mediated endoc...
