Investigation into the ion channels and plasma membrane properties of white adipocytes by Bentley, Donna C.

“…Initial [Ca2+]i imaging experiments utilising conditions of elevated extracellular K+ (50mM) did not stimulate Ca2+ influx. The plasma membrane potential (Vm) regulates many physiological processes, including cellular Ca2+ influx by VGCCs, with dysregulations in Vm underlying functional pathologies. …”

Imaging nuclear, endoplasmic reticulum, and plasma membrane events in real time by Bader, C., Sorvina, A., Simpson, Peter, Wright, P., Stagni, S., Plush, S., Massi, Massimiliano, Brooks, D.

“…ReZolve-ER™ localised to the nuclear membrane/endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and allowed the detection of exocytotic events at the plasma membrane. Thus, we present a new imaging agent for monitoring live cell events in real time, which is ideal for imaging either short- or long-time courses.…”

An electrochemical system for the study of trans-plasma membrane electron transport in whole eukaryotic cells by Sherman, Harry G., Jovanovic, Carolyn, Stolnik, Snow, Rawson, Frankie J.

“…The development of new assays to study trans-plasma membrane electron transport (tPMET) in eukaryotic systems is paramount for a number reasons, which include the further understanding of the underlying biology which can then potentially be applied to innovate technological advancements in biosensing, microbial fuel, and pharmaceutical fields. …”

Role of plasma membrane transporters (N+/H+ and HCO3-) in mediating mammalian longitudinal bone growth and fracture healing by Abdul, Abubakar Adamu

“…Although the cellular mechanism of chondrocyte differentiation that regulates long bone growth and fracture healing is still poorly understood, plasma membrane transporters were thought to have the mediating roles. …”

Intracellular drug delivery: a route to more selective and effective treatments for disease by Mai, Quynh N.

“…Fluorescence correlation spectroscopy and localisation of a lipid-conjugated fluorescent probe (Cy5-Cholestanol) suggested that there was enrichment in endosomes, and at the plasma membrane. Further investigation of this plasma membrane-associated ligand population revealed that Spantide-Cholestanol has inhibitory effects on receptor trafficking and some plasma membrane-delimited signalling events. …”

Scopariadulcis (SDF7) endowed with glucose uptake properties on L6 myotubes compared insulin. by Joo, Ee Beh, Latip, Jalifah, Abdullah, Mohd Puad, Ismail, Amin, Hamid, Muhajir

“…Aim of the study Insulin stimulates glucoseuptake and promotes the translocation of glucose transporter 4 (Glut 4) to the plasma membrane on L6myotubes. The aim of this study is to investigate affect of Scopariadulcis Linn water extracts on glucoseuptake activity and the Glut 4 translocation components (i.e., IRS-1, PI 3-kinase, PKB/Akt2, PKC and TC 10) in L6myotubescompared to insulin. …”
