Abstract
Maintaining lipid composition diversity in membranes from different organelles is critical for numerous cellular processes. However, many lipids are synthesized in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and require delivery to other organelles. In this scenario, formation of membrane contact sites (MCS) between neighbouring organelles has emerged as a novel non-vesicular lipid transport mechanism. Dissecting the molecular composition of MCS identified phosphoinositides (PIs), cholesterol, scaffolding/tethering proteins as well as Ca2+ and Ca2+-binding proteins contributing to MCS functioning. Compelling evidence now exists for the shuttling of PIs and cholesterol across MCS, affecting their concentrations in distinct membrane domains and diverse roles in membrane trafficking. Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P2) at the plasma membrane (PM) not only controls endo-/exocytic membrane dynamics but is also critical in autophagy. Cholesterol is highly concentrated at the PM and enriched in recycling endosomes and Golgi membranes. MCS-mediated cholesterol transfer is intensely researched, identifying MCS dysfunction or altered MCS partnerships to correlate with de-regulated cellular cholesterol homeostasis and pathologies. Annexins, a conserved family of Ca2+-dependent phospholipid binding proteins, contribute to tethering and untethering events at MCS. In this chapter, we will discuss how Ca2+ homeostasis and annexins in the endocytic compartment affect the sensing and transfer of cholesterol and PIs across MCS.

Abstract
Lipid droplets (LDs) are the major lipid storage organelles of eukaryotic cells and a source of nutrients for intracellular pathogens. We demonstrate that mammalian LDs are endowed with a protein-mediated antimicrobial capacity, which is up-regulated by danger signals. In response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS), multiple host defense proteins, including interferon-inducible guanosine triphosphatases and the antimicrobial cathelicidin, assemble into complex clusters on LDs. LPS additionally promotes the physical and functional uncoupling of LDs from mitochondria, reducing fatty acid metabolism while increasing LD-bacterial contacts. Thus, LDs actively participate in mammalian innate immunity at two levels: They are both cell-autonomous organelles that organize and use immune proteins to kill intracellular pathogens as well as central players in the local and systemic metabolic adaptation to infection.

Abstract
Annexin A6 (AnxA6) belongs to the conserved annexin family - a group of Ca2+-dependent membrane binding proteins. AnxA6 is the largest of all annexins and highly expressed in smooth muscle, hepatocytes, endothelial cells and cardiomyocytes. Upon activation, AnxA6 binds to negatively charged phospholipids in a wide range of intracellular localizations, in particular the plasma membrane, late endosomes/pre-lysosomes, but also synaptic vesicles and sarcolemma. In these cellular sites, AnxA6 is believed to contribute to the organization of membrane microdomains, such as cholesterol-rich lipid rafts and confer multiple regulatory functions, ranging from vesicle fusion, endocytosis and exocytosis to programmed cell death and muscle contraction. Growing evidence supports that Ca2+ and Ca2+-binding proteins control endocytosis and autophagy. Their regulatory role seems to operate at the level of the signalling pathways that initiate autophagy or at later stages, when autophagosomes fuse with endolysosomal compartments. The convergence of the autophagic and endocytic vesicles to lysosomes shares several features that depend on Ca2+ originating from lysosomes/late endosomes and seems to depend on proteins that are subsequently activated by this cation. However, the involvement of Ca2+ and its effector proteins in these autophagic and endocytic stages still remains poorly understood. Although AnxA6 makes up almost 0.25% of total protein in the liver, little is known about its function in hepatocytes. Within the endocytic route, we identified AnxA6 in endosomes and autophagosomes of hepatocytes. Hence, AnxA6 and possibly other annexins might represent new Ca2+ effectors that regulate converging steps of autophagy and endocytic trafficking in hepatocytes.

Abstract
To investigate the heterogeneous protein composition of highly polarized hepatocyte plasma membrane (PM), three PM-associated subfractions were obtained from freshly isolated rat hepatocytes using density gradient centrifugation. The origins of the three subfractions were determined by morphological analysis and western blotting. The proteins were subjected to either one-dimensional (1-D) SDS-PAGE or two-dimensional (2-D) benzyldimethyl-n-hexadecylammonium chloride (BAC)/SDS-PAGE before nano-Liquid Chromatography-Electrospray Ionization--tandem mass spectrometry analysis (LC-ESI-MS/MS). A total of 613 non-redundant proteins were identified, among which 371 (60.5%) proteins were classified as PM or membrane-associated proteins according to GO annotations and the literatures and 32.4% had transmembrane domains. PM proteins from microsomal portion possessed the highest percentage of transmembrane domain, about 46.5% of them containing at least one transmembrane domain. In addition to proteins known to be located at polarized liver PM regions, such as asialoglycoprotein receptor 2, desmoplakin and bile salt export pump, several proteins which had the potential to become novel subfraction-specific proteins were also identified, such as annexin a6, pannexin and radixin. Our analysis also evaluated the application of 1-D SDS-PAGE and 2-D 16-BAC/SDS-PAGE on the separation of integral membrane proteins.

Abstract
Cholangiocarcinoma, a primary liver tumour that arises from biliary epithelial cells, is increasing in incidence and has poor prognosis. Diagnosis is difficult, particularly in patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis, who are at risk of developing the disease. Timely diagnosis is essential because surgical resection in early disease remains the only cure. The lack of a sensitive and specific early diagnostic marker and of alternative treatments are the main reasons why patients have limited survival. The use of proteomic-based approaches, which analyse the physiological or pathological complement of proteins (ie, the proteome) in cells, tissues, or biological fluids, has received substantial interest in biomarker discovery. Proteomics complements genomic studies and examines functional end-units quantitatively and qualitatively, including post-translational modifications which might vary with disease and might have key roles in protein function or localisation. Major advances in technology and bioinformatics have enhanced proteomic studies, resulting in increased understanding of the pathogenesis of many diseases and in biomarker discovery with effective use of tissues, cell lines, and biological fluids. We review the current status and promise of proteomic-based approaches in biomarker discovery for cholangiocarcinoma.

Abstract
Murine milk contains 18 mg ml(-1) serum albumin, a concentration equal to that in the serum of the lactating mouse. We examined cellular transport using in vivo methods in the mouse. At steady state the specific activity of (125)I-albumin injected into the blood stream was equal in plasma and whey, confirming that milk albumin is extra-mammary in origin. Fluorescent albumin crossed the gland from basolateral surface to lumen via cytoplasmic vesicles, but was not transported in the apical to basal direction. Albumin was segregated from transferrin at the basal surface of the epithelial cells and did not colocalize with either caveolin-1 or -2. Vesicular transport was not disrupted by filipin providing additional evidence that, unlike the vascular endothelium, caveoli are not involved. Cytoplasmic albumin was localized to vesicles containing IgA and transport was disrupted by agents that interfere with clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Together, these findings provide evidence that albumin is transported across the mammary epithelium by the same pathway as immunoglobulin. The possibility that the massive transfer of albumin into mouse milk is mediated by fluid phase transport is considered.

Abstract
Adipogenesis is an important aspect of energy homeostasis. Here we have used a differential proteome mapping strategy to identify intracellular proteins that are differentially expressed during adipose conversion of 3T3 L1 preadipocytes. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis analysis identified 8 proteins that are induced following hormone-evoked differentiation. In addition, we found that a alpha2 macroglobulin fragment was abundantly present in 3T3 L1 preadipocytes, but was virtually undetectable in fully differentiated adipocytes. Metabolic radiolabeling with (35S)methionine and Northern blot analysis indicated that the intracellular alpha2 macroglobulin fragment in preadipocytes was derived from the extracellular culture medium, not de novo synthesis. Incubation of preadipocytes with an antialpha2 macroglobulin polyclonal antibody caused depletion of the intracellular alpha2 macroglobulin fragments, and also enhanced spontaneous adipose conversion. These results suggest that intracellular alpha2 macroglobulin fragment inhibits adipocyte differentiation, and that hormone treatment induces differentiation at least in part by suppression of intracellular alpha2 macroglobulin activity in 3T3 L1 preadipocytes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS Liver growth, induced by partial hepatectomy of the organ is a precisely regulated process during which a radical reorganisation of metabolism occurs as the hepatocytes become committed to enter the cell cycle. Recent studies have shown the importance of the endocytic compartment in the control of lipid and protein intracellular trafficking but also in the control of the signal transduction events, which eventually will trigger the initiation of DNA synthesis and the subsequent cell division. METHODS We isolated endosomes at different times after partial hepatectomy in male rats and compared with endosomes isolated from sham-operated animals. Also, bile was collected and analysed by 2D-gel electrophoresis. RESULTS The amount of late endosomes isolated from regenerating livers decreased, concomitant with decreased cathepsin D specific enzyme activity. Furthermore, secretion of horseradish peroxidase, pIgA and transferrin increased in the pre-replicative phase of liver regeneration. CONCLUSIONS At the early stages of liver regeneration, the hepatocellular transport pathway towards degradation (late endosomes and lysosomal pathway) decreases, but the transcytosis and the bile secretion of several major proteins increases.

Abstract
Using the asialoglycoprotein receptor (ASGP-R) and a representative ligand, asialoorosomucoid (ASOR), we have previously shown ethanol-induced impairment of endosomal acidification, receptor recycling and ligand binding, internalization, and degradation. In the current study, we further investigated ethanol-induced alterations in receptor/ligand trafficking by labeling endosomes in vivo with either Texas-Red-ASOR or 125I-ASOR, and then assessing the receptor/ligand content of endosomes. We assessed two fractions after both 5 and 25 min of labeling: 'early endosomes' (EEs; endosomes from the cell periphery) and 'late endosomes' (LEs; endosomes farther into the cell interior). At both time points, significantly more ligand was found in EE fractions isolated from chow- and pair-fed controls (3:1, EE to LE, respectively). However, endosomes isolated from ethanol-fed animals showed a shift over time toward a more equal ligand distribution between endosome fractions (P < or = 0.05). Analysis of the ASGP-R content revealed a distribution pattern between the endosome fractions similar to that observed for ligand distribution. Impairment of receptor-ligand dissociation was assessed in endosome fractions by determining bound/free ligand ratios. Analysis showed that most of the ligand present in both endosome fractions was free (56-99%), although more was bound to receptor in EE vs LE of both control and ethanol animals (P < or = 0.05). At 5 min, more ligand remained bound in endosomes from ethanol-fed animals compared with control endosomes (P < or = 0.05), and the same pattern was observed at the latter time point. These results suggest that delayed dissociation may cause the receptor ligand complexes to travel farther into the cell interior, which may impair proper trafficking of the ligand to lysosomes and alter the receptor recycling.

Abstract
Small GTP-binding proteins have been implicated in the regulation of vesicular traffic. We investigated the localization of Rab4 in the rat parotid glands by Western blotting and light-microscopic immunohistochemistry. Rab4 was localized mainly on the intracellular membranes in the subapical-actin terminal web, but was not present in the basolateral region both in acinar and ductal cells. Actin, alpha-adaptin, Rab5A and aquaporin5 were detected in the Rab4-containing intracellular membrane fraction prepared using anti-Rab4 antibody covalently coupled to magnetic beads. Detection of actin indicated that the Rab4-containing intracellular membranes were attached to the actin filaments. Although alpha-adaptin was immunohistochemically distributed along the plasma membrane, this protein coexisted with Rab4 only at the apical region. Rab5A immunoreactivity was distributed all around the cytoplasm. These findings suggested that Rab4 participates in endocytosis at the apical membrane of parotid glands.

Abstract
The hepatic asialoglycoprotein receptor (ASGP-R) internalizes desialylated glycoproteins via the clathrin-coated pit pathway and mediates their delivery to lysosomes for degradation. The human ASGP-R contains two subunits, H1 and H2. Cytoplasmic residues Cys(36) in H1, as well as Cys(54) and Cys(58) in H2 are palmitoylated (Zeng, F.-Y., and Weigel, P. H. (1996) J. Biol. Chem. 271, 32454). In order to study the function(s) of ASGP-R palmitoylation, we mutated these Cys residues to Ser and generated stably transfected SK-Hep-1 cell lines expressing either wild-type or nonpalmitoylated ASGP-Rs. Compared with wild-type ASGP-Rs, palmitoylation-defective ASGP-Rs showed normal ligand binding, intracellular distribution and trafficking patterns, and pH-induced dissociation profiles in vitro. However, continuous ASOR uptake, and the uptake of prebound cell surface ASOR were slower in cells expressing palmitoylation-defective ASGP-Rs than in cells expressing wild-type ASGP-Rs. Unlike native ASGP-Rs in hepatocytes or hepatoma cells, which mediate endocytosis via the clathrin-coated pit pathway and are almost completely inhibited by hypertonic medium, only approximately 40% of the ASOR uptake in SK-Hep-1 cells expressing wild-type ASGP-Rs was inhibited by hyperosmolarity. This result suggests the existence of an alternate nonclathrin-mediated internalization pathway, such as transcytosis, for the entry of ASGP-R.ASOR complexes into these cells. In contrast, ASOR uptake mediated by cells expressing palmitoylation-defective ASGP-Rs showed only a marginal difference under hypertonic conditions, indicating that most of the nonpalmitoylated ASGP-Rs were not internalized and processed normally through the clathrin-coated pit pathway. Furthermore, cells expressing wild-type ASGP-Rs were able to degrade the internalized ASOR, whereas ASOR dissociation was impaired and degradation was barely detectable in cells expressing nonpalmitoylated ASGP-Rs. We conclude that palmitoylation of the ASGP-R is required for its efficient endocytosis of ligand by the clathrin-dependent endocytic pathway and, in particular, for the proper dissociation and delivery of ligand to lysosomes.

Abstract
We have recently described a novel recycling pathway of triglyceride-rich lipoprotein (TRL)-associated apolipoprotein (apo) E in human hepatoma cells. We now demonstrate that not only TRL-derived apoE but also lipoprotein lipase (LPL) is efficiently recycled in vitro and in vivo. Similar recycling kinetics of apoE and LPL in normal and low density lipoprotein receptor-negative human fibroblasts also indicate that the low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein seems to be involved. Intracellular sorting mechanisms are responsible for reduced lysosomal degradation of both ligands after receptor-mediated internalization. Immediately after internalization in rat liver, TRLs are disintegrated, and apoE and LPL are found in endosomal compartments, whereas TRL-derived phospholipids accumulate in the perinuclear region of hepatocytes. Subsequently, substantial amounts of both proteins can be found in purified recycling endosomes, indicating a potential resecretion of these TRL components. Pulse-chase experiments of perfused rat livers with radiolabeled TRLs demonstrated a serum-induced release of internalized apoE and LPL into the perfusate. Analysis of the secreted proteins identified approximately 80% of the recycled TRL-derived proteins in the high density lipoprotein fractions. These results provide the first evidence that recycling of TRL-derived apoE and LPL could play an important role in the modulation of lipoproteins in vivo.

Abstract
In prior studies, we showed that cholera (CTX) and pertussis toxins (PTX) increase rat liver endosome acidification. This study was performed to characterize the effects of these toxins and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) on endosome ion transport, fluid-phase endocytosis (FPE), and endosome trafficking in liver. In control liver, more mature populations of endosomes acidified progressively more slowly, but both toxins and cAMP caused retention of an early endosome acidification profile in maturing endosomes. CTX caused a density shift in endosomes, and all agents increased net FPE at time points from 5 to 60 minutes. By confocal microscopy, fluorescent dextrans first appeared in small vesicles at the hepatocyte sinusoidal membrane and trafficked rapidly to the pericanalicular area, near lysosomes and the trans-Golgi network (TGN). Prolonged exposure to these agents caused redistribution of many labeled vesicles to the perinuclear region, colocalized with markers of both early (EEA1 and transferrin receptor) and late (LAMP1) endosomes. We conclude that cAMP is the common agent that disrupted normal maturation and trafficking of endosomes and increased net FPE, in part via decreased diacytosis.

Abstract
We isolated and characterized a subcellular fraction derived from the blood-sinusoidal plasma membrane of hepatocytes enriched in caveolin and containing several of the molecular components described to be present in caveolae isolated from other cell types. A morphological study by electron microscopy revealed that it was composed of caveolae-attached membrane profiles. Immunoelectron microscopy of isolated fraction showed the specific labeling of internal caveolae membranes with anti-caveolin antibody. Finally, one- and two-dimensional electrophoresis and Western blotting were used for the biochemical analysis of this new rat liver plasma membrane fraction. From the biochemical and the morphological characterization, we conclude that the caveolae-enriched plasma membrane fraction is a plasma membrane fraction, which originates from specialized regions of the sinusoidal plasma membrane, enriched in caveolae.

Abstract
The ras-related GTPase rab5 is rate-limiting for homotypic early endosome fusion. We used a yeast two-hybrid screen to identify a rab5 interacting protein, rab5ip. The cDNA sequence encodes a ubiquitous 75-kDa protein with an N-terminal transmembrane domain (TM), a central coiled-coil structure, and a C-terminal region homologous to several centrosome-associated proteins. rab5ip lacking the transmembrane domain (rab5ipTM(-)) had a greater affinity in vitro for rab5-guanosine 5'-O-2-(thio)diphosphate than for rab5-guanosine 5'-3-O-(thio)triphosphate. In transfected HeLa cells, rab5ipTM(-) was partly cytosolic and localized (by immunofluorescence) with a rab5 mutant believed to be in a GDP conformation (GFP-rab5(G78A)) but not with GFP-rab5(Q79L), a GTPase-deficient mutant. rab5ip with the transmembrane domain (rab5ipTM(+)) was completely associated with the particulate fraction and localized extensively with GFP-rab5(wt) in punctate endosome-like structures. Overexpression of rab5ipTM(+) using Sindbis virus stimulated the accumulation of fluid-phase horseradish peroxidase by BHK-21 cells, and homotypic endosome fusion in vitro was inhibited by antibody against rab5ip. rab5ipTM(-) inhibited rab5(wt)-stimulated endosome fusion but did not inhibit fusion stimulated by rab5(Q79L). rab5ip represents a novel rab5 interacting protein that may function on endocytic vesicles as a receptor for rab5-GDP and participate in the activation of rab5.

Abstract
In this study, we demonstrate that, in rat liver, epidermal growth factor (EGF) is responsible for the partial redistribution of caveolin-1 from the plasma membrane into the early/sorting endocytic compartment. Highly purified endosomes and plasma membrane fractions were isolated from control rat liver and from rats injected with EGF or pIgA for different times. Whereas in subcellular fractions from control hepatocytes most of caveolin was concentrated in the plasma membrane and the receptor-recycling fractions, after EGF injection there was a significant redistribution of caveolin toward the early/sorting (CURL) endocytic fractions. The recruitment of caveolin into the endocytic compartment was not induced by pIgA.

Abstract
Mice that are mutant for Reelin or Dab1, or doubly mutant for the VLDL receptor (VLDLR) and ApoE receptor 2 (ApoER2), show disorders of cerebral cortical lamination. How Reelin and its receptors regulate laminar organization of cerebral cortex is unknown. We show that Reelin inhibits migration of cortical neurons and enables detachment of neurons from radial glia. Recombinant and native Reelin associate with alpha3beta1 integrin, which regulates neuron-glia interactions and is required to achieve proper laminar organization. The effect of Reelin on cortical neuronal migration in vitro and in vivo depends on interactions between Reelin and alpha3beta1 integrin. Absence of alpha3beta1 leads to a reduction of Dab1, a signaling protein acting downstream of Reelin. Thus, Reelin may arrest neuronal migration and promote normal cortical lamination by binding alpha3beta1 integrin and modulating integrin-mediated cellular adhesion.

Abstract
The endocytic compartment of polarized cells is organized in basolateral and apical endosomes plus those endocytic structures specialized in recycling and transcytosis, which are still poorly characterized. The complexity of the various populations of endosomes has been demonstrated by the exquisite repertoire of endogenous proteins. In this study we examined the distribution of cellubrevin in the endocytic compartment of hepatocytes, since its intracellular location and function in polarized cells are largely unknown. Highly purified rat liver endosomes were isolated from estradiol-treated rats, and the early/sorting endosomal fraction was further subfractionated in a multistep sucrose density gradient, and studied. Analysis of dissected endosomal fractions showed that cellubrevin was located in early/sorting endosomes, with Rab4, annexins II and VI, and transferrin receptor, but in a specific subpopulation of these early endosomes with the same density range as pIgA and Raf-1. Interestingly, only in those isolated endosomal fractions, endosomes enriched in transcytotic structures (of livers loaded with IgA), the polymeric immunoglobulin receptor specifically co-immunoprecipitated with cellubrevin. In addition, confocal and immuno-electron microscopy identification of cellubrevin in tubular structures underneath the sinusoidal plasma membrane together with the re-organization of cellubrevin, in the endocytic compartment, after the IgA loading, strongly suggest the involvement of cellubrevin in the transcytosis of pIgA.

Abstract
The mechanism of cell entry and intracellular fate of a gene transfer vector composed of a receptor-targeting, DNA-condensing peptide, RGD-oligolysine, a luciferase encoding plasmid DNA (pDNA) and a cationic liposome was examined. We demonstrate by confocal microscopy, electron microscopy and subcellular fractionation that the major mechanism of entry of the vector is endocytic. The vector complex rapidly (5 min) internalizes into early endosomes, then late endosomes and lysosomes. Entry involves, at least in part, clathrin-coated pit-mediated endocytosis since different conditions or drugs known to influence this pathway modify both uptake of pDNA and its expression. The observed increase in expression with addition of a lip some correlated with an increase in the rate of transfer of the pDNA to lysosomes, a decrease in intracellular recycling and exocytosis of the pDNA and an increase in the amount of pDNA in the nuclear fraction. Trafficking within the cell involved endosome fusion and the acid environment of the endosomes-lysosomes was beneficial for expression. After 30 min both the peptide and pDNA localized to the nucleus and the amount of intact pDNA in the nuclear fraction was highest with liposome and peptide. A better understanding of the cellular mechanisms by which vectors transfer to and traffic in cells should help design improved vectors.

Abstract
Polypeptides were isolated from human bile by extraction with chloroform/methanol, followed by reversed-phase chromatography in methanol/ethylene chloride and gel filtration in chloroform/methanol. Peptides were characterized by SDS/PAGE, sequence analysis and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization/time-of-flight mass spectrometry. This identified haemoglobin alpha chain, ATP synthase lipid-binding protein subunit 9, an N-terminal fragment of mac25/insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 7 and an internal fragment of monocyte differentiation antigen CD14, all not described previously in bile. In addition, alpha1-antitrypsin, known in bile from previous work, was also identified. The hydrophobic character of haemoglobin alpha chain is not apparent from its amino acid sequence, but the other polypeptides all have major hydrophobic segments. These results show that several proteins are removed upon organic solvent extraction used for delipidation during the preparation of samples for proteome analysis. Several of the polypeptides found are unexpectedly present in bile, suggesting that specific excretion mechanisms may be involved.

Abstract
We previously have isolated an endosomal fraction from rat liver, termed receptor-recycling compartment (RRC), which is highly enriched in recycling receptors and in the transcytotic polymeric Ig receptor (pIgR). We now have analyzed the RRC fraction by immunoisolation and found that no uniquely transcytotic elements were present, because recycling receptors and the pIgR were coisolated on the same elements. In addition, RRC was very rich in proteins previously shown to be associated with recycling endosomes, such as rab 11, cellubrevin, and endobrevin, but relatively poor in early endosome antigen 1. As RRC contains mainly tubules and small vesicles, our results indicate that it is enriched in elements of a tubular endosomal compartment involved in receptor sorting. Biochemical analysis showed that the density of recycling receptors and transcytotic pIgR in RRC membranes was similar to that in early endosome membranes. This observation supports the idea that increasing membrane surface area by endosome tubulation is the main mechanism to ensure efficient receptor sorting and, at the same time, locates RRC in a common step of the endocytotic system before final receptor segregation into distinct recycling and transcytotic pathways.

Abstract
Integrins mediate adhesive interactions between cells and the extracellular matrix, and play a role in cell migration, proliferation, differentiation, cytoskeletal organization, and signal transduction. We have identified an interaction between the beta(1) integrin and the 16-kDa subunit of vacuolar H(+)-ATPase (16K). This interaction was first isolated in a yeast two-hybrid screen and confirmed by coimmunoprecipitation and in in vitro binding assays using bacterially expressed proteins. Immunofluorescent studies performed in L6 myoblasts expressing both native and epitope-tagged 16K demonstrate co-localization with beta(1) integrin in focal adhesions. Deletion of the fourth of four transmembrane helices in 16K results in loss of interaction with beta(1) integrin in vitro and in the two-hybrid system, and less prominent staining in focal adhesions. This helix is also required for ligand-independent activation of platelet-derived growth factor-beta receptor signaling by the human papillomavirus E5 oncoprotein. Overexpression of 16K or expression of 16K lacking this helix alters the morphology of myoblasts and fibroblasts, suggesting that the interaction of 16K with integrins could be important for cell growth control. We also discuss the possible role 16K might play in integrin movement.

Abstract
The sinusoidal plasma membrane of the hepatocyte is organized into functional and structural microdomains whose origin, maintenance, and functioning are closely related with the endocytic compartment. Three different subcellular fractions, from rat liver, containing caveolin-1, the structural protein of caveolae, were morphologically and biochemically characterized. A caveolae-enriched plasma membrane fraction (CEF), contains large membrane structures surrounding attached internal plasmalemmal vesicles; the receptor-recycling compartment (RRC), contains tubules and vesicles with similar morphology to the internal vesicles observed by electron microscopy in CEF; and finally, caveolin-1 was also detected in early-sorting endosomes (CURL, compartment of uncoupling receptors and ligands). In this study, we show that following an intravenous administration of retinol-binding protein (RBP), there was a redistribution of caveolin-1 from the plasma membrane (CEF) to intracellular endocytic compartments (RRC and early-sorting endosomes). Thus, these results indicate that, in the hepatocyte, caveolae are dynamic structures actively interacting with the endocytic compartment.

Abstract
To study the mechanisms of immortalization of human cells, an early step in cancer development, we compared the cellular proteins of normal and immortalized human fibroblasts. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis showed that one spot with a molecular mass 20 kDa and an isoelectric point of 6.0, became significantly smaller after immortalization of human cells. Further, the spot was rarely observed in four human liver cancer cell lines. Investigation of the N-terminal amino acids revealed that the spot was a fragment of alpha-2-macroglobulin. Although the 20 kDa fragment contains methionine, the spot was not labeled with [35S]methionine. Thus we concluded that the spot might be derived from the culture medium. These results indicated that intracellular metabolism of a-2-macroglobulin, which is a multifunctional protease inhibitor, changed after the cells were transformed.

Abstract
Receptor-mediated transport mechanisms provide a pathway for the trafficking of extracellular macromolecules into (endocytosis) and across (transcytosis) the cell. This comprises the binding of a ligand to a specific cell-surface receptor, clustering of the ligand-receptor complexes in endocytotic vesicles and vesicular sorting. This review focuses on recent advances in cellular and molecular biology pertaining to receptor-mediated endocytosis. A concise overview is presented of current and potential future applications of targeting to RME mechanisms to improve oral macromolecular drug delivery.

Abstract
The endocytic compartment has emerged as a major regulator of the uptake and processing of circulating ligands, and has been extensively studied during the last decade. In this work, the polypeptides of the three endosomal fractions: compartment of uncoupling receptors and ligands (CURL), multivesicular bodies (MVB) and receptor recycling compartment (RRC), isolated from livers of estradiol-treated rats, were analyzed by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Silver-stained gels revealed that although the three endosomal fractions shared a generally similar pattern of approximately 120 components, qualitative and quantitative differences between the three endocytic fractions could be demonstrated. The polypeptide composition of the bile was also studied and compared with ligands and proteins identified in the different endosomal fractions. One- and two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and Western blotting were used to investigate the protein composition of the three isolated endocytic fractions and 39 proteins were identified. The distribution of identified receptors, ligands and structural proteins among the three endosomal fractions was in agreement with their expected functionalities and with the different endocytic pathways in the hepatocyte.

Abstract
Following a concept developed by Bier et al. (Electrophoresis 1993, 14, 1011-1018), binary mixtures of amphoteric buffers with low conductivity and a good buffering capacity permit rapid rate zonal separation of proteins on a density gradient electrophoresis apparatus (7 cm, x 2.2 cm). At pH 8.66 and 250 V, beta-lactoglobulin (Mr 36600) was separated into the A and B isoforms within 44 min; human transferrin (Mr 76000-81000) was separated into its sialylated glycoforms and carbonic anhydrase (Mr 30000) separated into its isoenzymes. From these results we arrive at the term high-performance density gradient electrophoresis. Compartments belonging to the endosomal system were separated by density gradient electrophoresis. Early endosomes, recycling vesicles, intermediate endosomes, late endosomes and lysomes became well-separated after 80 min at 10 mA using [125I]transferrin and horseradish peroxidase as reporter molecules in pulse-chase regimes. Mixtures of Bier buffers and standard electrophoresis media permitted very short separation times (19 min at 10 mA) for the endosomal compartments. Concommittantly, endoplasmic reticulum and proteasomes were well resolved.

Abstract
The polypeptides of three highly purified endosomal fractions isolated from the livers of oestradiol-treated rats were analysed by Western blotting, and the amount and distribution of intrinsic and cytoskeletal-associated proteins were quantified and studied. The 'late' endosomes [multivesicular bodies (MVBs)] had the lowest content of cytoskeletal-associated proteins, the most significant being the presence of 25% of the total dynein found in endosomes. The 'early' endosome [compartment of uncoupling receptors and ligands (CURL)] fraction contained kinesin (40% of the total in endosomes), dynein (23%), actin (15%) and tubulin (10%). The receptor-recycling compartment (RRC), also demonstrated to be involved in transcytosis, contained the largest number and enrichment of cytoskeletal proteins: actin (84% of the total in endosomes), alpha-actinin (90%), dynein (52%), tubulin (91%) and kinesin (45%). We also analysed and compared the presence of different endosomal markers such as Rab4, Rab5 and cellubrevin (vesicle soluble NSF attachment protein receptor) in CURL (41%, 15% and 60%) and in RRC (44%, 75% and 30% respectively). Finally, the expression of annexins I, II, IV and VI was studied: annexin I was equally distributed between MVBs and CURL; annexin II was highly enriched in RRC (95%), annexin IV was equally distributed between CURL and RRC, and annexin VI was enriched in CURL (57%). The results indicate that isolated rat liver endosomes contain all the required molecular machinery for the achievement of their role in intracellular trafficking.
