| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Macropinocytosis is a non-selective uptake of liquid phase. In a previous study, we established an experimental system to induce macropionocytosis in specified region of cells using photo-activatable Rac1 (PA-Rac1) in macrophage culture cells, RAW264. It was revealed that PA-Rac1- induced micropinocytosis is different characteristics from typical micropinocytosis in several points. We found that Rab10 and its effector EHBP1 are transiently accumulated in macropinosomes during the novel micropinocytosis. Rab10 positive macropinosomes budded tubular structures and disappeared at the same time. In addition, it became clear that formation of tubular structures requires down-regulation of Rac1 activities. Furthermore, it was revealed that some of Rab10-positive macropinosomes and tubular structures budding from them are open structures. These results suggest that PA-Rac1-induced micropinocytosis is a novel uptake pathway different from the typical type.
