THE LENGTH OF VESICULAR STOMATITIS VIRUS PARTICLES DICTATES A NEED FOR ACTIN ASSEMBLY DURING CLATHRIN-DEPENDENT ENDOCYTOSIS.

The length of vesicular stomatitis virus particles dictates a need for actin assembly during clathrin-dependent endocytosis.

Microbial pathogens exploit the clathrin endocytic machinery to enter host cells.Vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV), an enveloped virus with bullet-shaped virions that measure 70 x 200 nm, enters cells by clathrin-dependent endocytosis.We showed previously that VSV particles exceed the capacity of typical clathrin-coated vesicles and instead enter th

PHLDA1 modulates microglial response and NLRP3 inflammasome signaling following experimental subarachnoid hemorrhage

Balancing microglia M1/M2 polarization is an effective therapeutic strategy for neuroinflammation after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH).Pleckstrin homology-like domain family A member 1 (PHLDA1) has been demonstrated to play a crucial role in immune response.However, the function roles of PHLDA1 in neuroinflammation and microglial polarization after

Effects of Variable Eruption Source Parameters on Volcanic Plume Transport: Example of the 23 November 2013 Paroxysm of Etna

The purpose of the present paper is to investigate the effects of variable eruption source parameters on volcanic plume transport in the Mediterranean basin after the paroxysm of Mount Etna on 23 November 2013.This paroxysm was characterized by a north-east transport of ash and gas, caused by a low-pressure system in northern Italy.It is evaluated
