Phosphatidylethanolamine dynamics are required for osteoclast fusion
Osteoclasts, responsible for bone resorption, are multinucleated cells formed by cell-cell fusion of mononuclear pre-osteoclasts. Although osteoclast fusion is a pivotal step for osteoclastogenesis, little is known about the mechanism involved. To clarify the underlying process, we investigated dynamics of membrane phospholipids during osteoclastogenesis in vitro. We found that the cellular con...
متن کاملLoss of asymmetric distribution of sarcolemmal phosphatidylethanolamine during simulated ischemia in the isolated neonatal rat cardiomyocyte.
In the present study we have investigated the reorganization of the sarcolemmal phospholipids during the first 60 minutes of simulated ischemia ("ischemia") as induced by anoxia, volume restriction, and nutrient deprivation. Experiments were carried out on [3H]acetate-labeled neonatal rat cardiomyocytes and isolated (nonradiolabeled) sarcolemmal membranes obtained from the same culture system. ...
متن کاملThe exocytotic fusion pore
T hE fusion pore is the molecular structure that transiently connects the lumens of two membrane compartments during their fusion. The fusion of membrane compartments occurs in all cells because intracellular trafficking of vesicles in both endocytic and exocytic pathways and in consti-tutive exocytosis are ubiquitous cellular processes. In addition, many other cells including endocrine, exocri...
متن کاملThe fusion pore.
The secretory process requires many different steps and stages. Vesicles must be formed and transported to the target membrane. They must be tethered or docked at the appropriate sites and must be prepared for fusion (priming). As the last step, a fusion pore is formed and the contents are released. Release of neurotransmitter is an extremely rapid event leading to rise times of the postsynapti...
