Clearly it is not the initial internalization step specialized for the internalization of small molecules.

  • Exocytosis by Networks of Rab Gtpases Decoding the Regulation
    The Journal of Immunology Decoding the Regulation of Mast Cell Exocytosis by Networks of Rab GTPases Nurit P. Azouz,* Takahide Matsui,† Mitsunori Fukuda,† and Ronit Sagi-Eisenberg* Exocytosis is a key event in mast cell functions. By this process, mast cells release inflammatory mediators, contained in secretory granules (SGs), which play important roles in immunity and wound healing but also provoke allergic and inflammatory responses. The mechanisms underlying mast cell exocytosis remained poorly understood. An essential step toward deciphering the mechanisms behind exocytosis is the identification of the cellular components that regulate this process. Because Rab GTPases regulate specific trafficking pathways, we screened 44 Rabs for their functional impacts on exocytosis triggered by the Fc«RI or combination of Ca2+ ionophore and phorbol ester. Because exocytosis involves the continuous reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton, we also repeated our screen in the presence of cytochalasin D that inhibits actin polymerization. In this paper, we report on the identification of 30 Rabs as regulators of mast cell exocytosis, the involvement of 26 of which has heretofore not been recognized. Unexpectedly, these Rabs regulated exocytosis in a stimulus-dependent fashion, unless the actin skeleton was disrupted. Functional clustering of the identified Rabs suggested their classification as Rabs involved in SGs biogenesis or Rabs that control late steps of exocytosis. The latter could be further divided into Rabs that localize to the SGs and Rabs that regulate transport from the endocytic recycling compartment. Taken together, these findings unveil the Rab networks that control mast cell exocytosis and provide novel insights into their mechanisms of action.

Lysosomes dispose and recycle extracellular or intracellular macromolecules by fusing with endosomes or autophagosomes through specific waste clearance processes such as chaperone-mediated autophagy or microautophagy. The proteolytic end product is transported out of lysosomes via transporters or vesicular membrane trafficking. Recent studies have demonstrated lysosomes as a signaling node which sense, adapt and respond to changes in substrate metabolism to maintain cellular function. Lysosomal dysfunction not only influence pathways mediating membrane trafficking that culminate in the lysosome but also govern metabolic and signaling processes regulating protein sorting and targeting. In this review, we describe the current knowledge of lysosome in influencing sorting and nutrient signaling. We further present a mechanistic overview of intra-lysosomal processes, along with extra-lysosomal processes, governing lysosomal fusion and fission, exocytosis, positioning and membrane contact site formation. This review compiles existing knowledge in the field of lysosomal biology by describing various lysosomal events necessary to maintain cellular homeostasis facilitating development of therapies maintaining lysosomal function.

RMT DOI: 10.1039/x0xx00000x is a complex process, during which the nanoparticles actively interact with the membrane and the membrane profile undergoes extreme deformations for particle internalization and expulsion. In this work, we developed a stochastic model to study the endocytosis and exocytosis of nanoparticle across soft membranes. The model is based on the combination of a stochastic particle binding model with a membrane model, and accounts for both the clathrin-mediated endocytosis for internalization and the actin-mediated exocytosis for explusion. Our results showed the nanoparticle must have certain avidity with enough ligand density and ligand-receptor binding affinity to be uptaken, while too much avidity limited the particle release from the cell surface. We furhter explored the functional roles of actin during exocytosis, which has been a topic under active debates. Our simulations indicated that the membrane compression due to the actin induced tension tended to break the ligand-receptor bonds and to shrink the fusion pore.
