Vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A) is a key mediator of angiogenesis, signalling
via the class IV tyrosine kinase receptor family of VEGF Receptors (VEGFRs). Although …

How various macromolecules are exchanged between cells and how they gain entry into
recipient cells are fundamental questions in cell biology with important implications eg non …

The cytoskeleton is an interconnected network that provides support and organization to
cells. In eukaryotes, its main components include actin and microtubules, two types of …

Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) family members, which include TGF-βs, activins and
bone morphogenetic proteins, are pleiotropic cytokines that elicit cell type-specific effects in …

The endocytic pathway is essential for processes that define how cells interact with their
environment, including receptor signalling, cell adhesion and migration, pathogen entry …

The Neuropilins (Nrps) are a family of essential cell surface receptors involved in multiple
fundamental cellular signaling cascades. Nrp family members have key functions in VEGF …

Protein reabsorption is a predominant feature of the renal proximal tubule. Animal studies
show that the ability to rescue plasma proteins relies on the endocytic receptors megalin and …

Since it has become clear that adhesion receptors are trafficked through the endosomal
pathway and that this can influence their function, much effort has been invested in obtaining …

Vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A) has long been recognized as the key
regulator of vascular development and function in health and disease. VEGF is a secreted …

Myosins are a large family of actin-based cytoskeletal motors that use energy derived from
ATP hydrolysis to generate movement and force. Myosins of classes II, V and VI have …
