After treatment with PKC activator, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), cPKC translocated to the periphery of oocyte, and cortical granules (CG) exocytosis was found. When the oocytes were ...

As the molecular mechanisms underlying zymogen granule (ZG) formation, the sorting/packaging of cargo and regulated secretion/exocytosis are still poorly defined, there is great need for the ...

Endosomal recycling is a branch of intracellular membrane trafficking that retrieves endocytosed cargo proteins from early and late endosomes to prevent their degradatio ...

Similar to a small cut that heals itself after a short time, individual cells in our body suffer "wounds" in their protective layer, the cell membrane, every day and have to repair them again ...

Familial HLH is a success story in modern medicine. Initially a disease that was largely unknown and fatal, it is now understood on a molecular level and is curable. Moreover, HLH is an archetype ...
