endocytosed
(adjective)
Engulfed during the process by which the plasma membrane of a cell folds inwards to ingest material.
Examples of endocytosed in the following topics:
-
Transcytosis
- Briefly the substance to be transported is endocytosed by the endothelial cell into a lipid vesicle which moves through the cell and is then exocytosed to the other side.
-
Cell-Mediated Autoimmune Reactions
- All that is required is that a B cell that recognizes antigen X endocytoses processes a protein Y (normally =X) and presents it to a T cell.
- Roosnek and Lanzavecchia showed that B cells recognizing IgGFc could get help from any T cell that responds to an antigen co-endocytosed with IgG by the B cell as part of an immune complex.
-
Types of WBCs
- These granules are membrane-bound enzymes that act primarily in the digestion of endocytosed particles.
- MN leukocytes contain lysosomes, small vesicles containing digestive enzymes that break down foreign matter that is endocytosed by the cell during phagocytosis.
-
Capillary Dynamics
- Briefly the substance to be transported is endocytosed by the endothelial cell into a lipid vesicle which moves through the cell and is then exocytosed to the other side.
-
Virulent Bacteriophages and T4
- Typically, these host cell proteins are endocytosed and the bound virus then enters the host cell.
-
Replication of Double-Stranded DNA Viruses of Animals
- Polyomavirus virions are subsequently endocytosed and transported first to the endoplasmic reticulum where a conformational change occurs; then by an unknown mechanism the virus is exported to the nucleus.
