Abstract:
Endocytosis is a major mechanism through which cellular signaling by G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) is terminated. However, recent studies demonstrate that GPCRs are internalized in an active state and continue to signal from within endosomes, resulting in effects on cellular function that are distinct to those arising at the cell surface. Endocytosis inhibitors are commonly used to define the importance of GPCR internalization for physiological and pathophysiological processes. Here, we provide the first detailed examination of the effects of these inhibitors on neurogenic contractions o

Abstract PMA causes rapid down-modulation of CD4 molecules on murine immature thymocytes, human PBL, and CD4-positive human tumor cell lines, but not on murine peripheral lymphocytes. The mechanisms of phorbol ester-induced down modulation of CD4 molecules, however, have not been elucidated. To determine how PMA down-modulates CD4 expression by T lymphocytes, we studied the ability of inhibitors of protein kinase C, calmodulin, actin, and tubulin to block PMA-induced modulation of CD4 in several murine and human cell types.

The growth hormone (GH) receptor (GHR) is a mammalian plasma membrane protein whose internalization is mediated by the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway.

Abstract:
An understanding of the transport of silica nanoparticles (NPs) across the placental barrier is important in perinatal medicine. The cytotoxicity of silica NPs was investigated in this study. In up-take assays, we examined the size of NPs, as well as the effects of various inhibitors, on the internalization of silica NPs in BeWo b30 cells. The expression levels of PI3K, AKT and GSK3β were assessed after the cells were treated with silica NPs and/or the PI3K/ AKT signaling pathway inhibitor LY294002. The integrity of the cell monolayer was assessed by culturing cells on Transwell inserts and me

G-protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs) are pivotal in cellular responses to the environment and are common drug targets. Identification of selective small molecules acting on single GPCRs is complicated by the shared machinery coupling signal transduction to physiology. Here, we demonstrate a high-content screen using a panel of GPCR assays to identify receptor selective molecules acting within the kinase/phosphatase inhibitor family.

L-asparaginase (L-ASNase) remains a vital chemotherapeutic agent for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), primarily due to its mechanism of depleting circulating asparagine essential for leukemic cell proliferation. However, existing ASNases (including pegylated ones) face limitations including immunogenicity, rapid clearance, and off-target toxicities. Earlier, we have shown that the conjugation of L-ASNase with the polyamines and their copolymers results in significant enhancement of the antiproliferative activity due to accumulation in tumor cells. We suggested that this effect is probably m

Labeled albumin uptake as a function of increasing protein concentration showed a saturation kinetics with a Michaelis constant value of 2.0 ± 0.6 μM.

We proved that this modification on the N-terminus of tetra- and hexaarginine enhanced their cellular uptake.
