Endocytic recycling pathways: emerging regulators of cell migration

Curr Opin Cell Biol. 2006 Oct;18(5):549-57. doi: 10.1016/j.ceb.2006.08.003. Epub 2006 Aug 9.

Abstract

The past five years have seen a steady accumulation of data reinforcing the view that Rab-regulated recycling pathways contribute to cell migration. In particular, detailed descriptions have emerged of the mechanisms that recruit integrins and growth factor receptors to Rab4- and Rab11-driven pathways. Recent work provides new insight into the importance of particular recycling events in cell migration within a variety of physiological contexts.
