Filipin-dependent Inhibition of Cholera Toxin: Evidence for Toxin Internalization and Activation through Caveolae-like Domains

Abstract: The mechanism by which cholera toxin (CT) is internalized from the plasma membrane before its intracellular reduction and subsequent activation of adenylyl cyclase is not well understood. Ganglioside GM1, the receptor for CT, is predominantly clustered in detergent-insoluble glycolipid rafts and in caveolae, noncoated, cholesterol-rich invaginations on the plasma membrane. In this study, we used filipin, a sterol-binding agent that disrupts caveolae and caveolae-like structures, to explore their role in the in… Show more

“…13 Therefore, we also examined the effect of nystatin, a reagent that binds to membrane cholesterol and disrupts internalization through the caveolae. 22,23 Nystatin treatment had no significant effect on the internalization of R8 or STR-R8, suggesting that caveolae formation is not involved in the internalization of these peptides.…”

“…5,20 We also examined the effect of nystatin, a reagent that disrupts internalization via the caveolae. 20,22,23 Cells were preincubated at 41C, in the presence of sucrose, NEM, or nystatin followed by the addition of FITC-labeled R8 or STR-R8 and further incubated for different times as shown under 'Materials and methods'. At the end of the incubation, the cells were fixed and observed by confocal laser microscopy.…”

“…29 Growth factors and certain toxins also induce non-clathrin-mediated, pinocytic uptake. 30,31 AAV particles, which utilize HS-GAGs for infection, can be found in both clathrin-coated and noncoated vesicles. 32 The fiber uptake observed here likely explains the mechanism of FPO gene transfer.…”

“…[27,[50][51][52][53][54] In this study, wortmannin (Wor) was used as a micropinocytosis inhibitor as it blocks PI3-kinase, [50,52,55,56] while genistein (Gen) inhibits tyrosine-phosphorylation of Cav 1 and caveolin-dependent endocytosis. [57][58][59] Furthermore, chlorpromazine (Chl) was used as it blocks clathrin-dependent endocytosis, [51,60,61] and microtubule formation was inhibited by nocodazole (Noc). Uptake studies in the presence of these inhibitors give insight in the intracellular trafficking and internalization mechanisms involved in the uptake of the lipid bilayer coated MSNs.…”
