Both the SV40 virus (a virus found in monkeys and humans) and the papillomavirus (which may cause genital warts and is associated with cervical cancer) use caveolae-mediated endocytosis to infect ...

Finally, other endocytosis pathways, different from the three previously described and found to be associated with lipid rafts, were identified as clathrin- and caveolae-independent endocytosis.

With the aim of finding targets that could be used to exploit caveolae for drug delivery, Oh et al. used proteomics to identify proteins concentrated in caveolae. APP was the most abundant protein ...

Finally, due to the presence of enzymes and acidity, most nanocarriers aim at avoiding lysosomal trafficking, [186] however, currently no specific targeting for caveolae endocytosis can be ...
