Regulated versus Constitutive Secretion – A Major Form of Intercellular Communication
Encyclopedia of Cell Biology(2016)
摘要
The secretory pathway carries proteins to the cell surface membrane where they can be released. This process can be divided into two systems: the regulated secretory pathway, and the constitutive secretory pathway. For many proteins in the constitutive secretory pathway, this transport process occurs at a relatively constant rate that is determined by how quickly those proteins are synthesized. However, the regulated secretory pathway operates by creating a storage compartment within cells to store secretory cargo. Upon the appropriate stimulus, these storage compartments can fuse with the cell surface and allow a burst of contents to be rapidly secreted. Regulated secretion is used throughout multicellular organisms to accomplish a wide variety of tasks such as hormonal control and neuronal communication.
