The manuscript describes that the majority of non-tumorigenic mammary gland epithelial cells (MCF-10A) in suspension initiate entosis. A smaller fraction of cells form a single giant unilocular ...
Additionally, the relationship to conventional endocytic compartments, such as early and late endosomes, is not analyzed. The manuscript "Formation of a giant unilocular vacuole via ...
Bacterial pathogens residing in membrane bound vacuoles have exploited this biological process by secreting effector proteins that establish and function at MCS between their vacuole and host ...
[63] This organism is invasive, and develops within a parasitophorous vacuole that is septated; this feature allows infection with E. intestinalis to be distinguished from that caused by E.
This is specific to plant cells and gives them protection from the outside environment. Vacuoles – although a plant vacuole is much bigger than an animal vacuole. This is because the vacuole helps the ...
Malaria is a mosquito-borne disease that is caused by Plasmodium parasites. Patients with malaria experience flu-like symptoms and, in severe cases, the disease can progress to neurological ...
A 2018 study found that there’s a release-recapture cycle at play here: the macrophage engulfs the ink, which is trapped in a vacuole, where it remains unharmed. The macrophage dies off before ...
Autophagy is a process by which cellular material is degraded by lysosomes or vacuoles and recycled. Several autophagy pathways operate within a cell, including macroautophagy, microautophagy and ...
Professor Eva Frickel, University of Birmingham, UK, will be visiting us on Monday 2 December 2024 in the CMU. Her talk, entitled "Human GBP1 controls pathogens and is regulated by the kinase PIM1 to ...
