Affinity-purification and characterization of caveolins from the brain: Differential expression of caveolin-1, -2, and -3 in brain endothelial and astroglial cell types

Caveolins 1, 2 and 3 are the principal protein components of caveolae organelles. It has been proposed that caveolae play a vital role in a number of essential cellular functions including signal transduction, lipid metabolism, cellular growth control and apoptotic cell death. Thus, a major focus of...
