Journal ArticleDOI

Exosome secretion is enhanced by invadopodia and drives invasive behavior.

TL;DR: This work identified specialized invasive actin structures called invadopodia as specific and critical docking and secretion sites for CD63- and Rab27a-positive MVEs and revealed a fundamental role for exosomes in promoting cancer cell invasiveness.
Journal ArticleDOI

The enterocyte microvillus is a vesicle-generating organelle.

TL;DR: Data is presented showing that enterocyte microvilli function as vesicle-generating organelles, which enable enterocytes to deploy catalytic activities into the intestinal lumen.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cortactin promotes exosome secretion by controlling branched actin dynamics.

TL;DR: It is shown that the cytoskeletal and tumor-overexpressed protein cortactin promotes secretion of exosomes from cancer cells by stabilizing dynamic cortical actin docking sites for multivesicular endosomes, suggesting a potential mechanism by which Cortactin may promote tumor aggressiveness.
Journal ArticleDOI

Single-Molecule Mechanics of R403Q Cardiac Myosin Isolated From the Mouse Model of Familial Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

TL;DR: On the basis of the distribution of mean unitary displacements, this mutation may possibly perturb the mechanical coordination between the 2 heads of cardiac myosin and result in abnormal power output and potentially a stimulus for the hypertrophic response.
