Abstract
Several bacterial toxins and viruses can deform membranes through multivalent binding to lipids for clathrin-independent endocytosis. However, it remains unclear, how membrane deformation and endocytic internalization are mechanistically linked. Here we show that many lipid-binding virions induce membrane deformation and clathrin-independent endocytosis, suggesting a common mechanism based on multivalent lipid binding by globular particles. We create a synthetic cellular system consisting of a lipid-anchored receptor in the form of GPI-anchored anti-GFP nanobodies and a multivalent globular binder exposing 180 regularly-spaced GFP molecules on its surface. We show that these globular, 40 nm diameter, particles bind to cells expressing the receptor, deform the plasma membrane upon adhesion and become endocytosed in a clathrin-independent manner. We explore the role of the membrane adhesion energy in endocytosis by using receptors with affinities varying over 7 orders of magnitude. Using this system, we find that once a threshold in adhesion energy is overcome to allow for membrane deformation, endocytosis occurs reliably. Multivalent, binding-induced membrane deformation by globular binders is thus sufficient for internalization to occur and we suggest it is the common, purely biophysical mechanism for lipid-binding mediated endocytosis of toxins and pathogens.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To review diagnostic techniques and treatments for early breast cancer, including radiologic techniques, biomarkers, surgical techniques, radiation therapy, adjuvant chemotherapy regimens, and hormonal therapy. DATA SOURCES Scientific and review articles, book chapters, and clinical practice. CONCLUSIONS Breast cancer is a major health problem. The advances in diagnosis and treatment of early breast cancer and the amount of information available make it difficult for patients to make diagnostic and treatment decisions. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE Oncology nurses need to be knowledgeable in the many advances in diagnostic and treatment techniques for early breast cancer to assist patients with difficult decisions.
