Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Agustin Leonardo Lujan"
- Agustin Leonardo Lujan's recent research focuses on cellular mechanisms underlying granule secretion processes, specifically examining the roles of tetraspanin-8 and TANGO2 in regulating lipid metabolism and mucin release.
- One study demonstrates that tetraspanin-8 sequesters syntaxin-2 to modulate the biphasic release of mucin granules, emphasizing its critical impact on the second phase of mucin secretion.
- Another investigation reveals that TANGO2 is essential for maintaining lipid homeostasis, with deficiencies causing abnormal lipid droplet enlargement and significant alterations in lipid profiles within mammalian cells.
