Figure 7. Cartoon model of regulation of WPB exocytosis. (I) Newly formed WPBs recruit Rab proteins (Rab27A and Rab3A/B/D) and their effectors Slp4-a, Munc13-4, and MyRIP/Myosin Va.22,23,25,27-29 (II) WPBs are anchored to the actin cytoskeleton via Myosin Va and MyRIP.27,28 (III) STXBP1 links WPBs to the SNAREs (syntaxin-2/3) via Slp4-a and Rab27A, whereas STXBP3 (Munc18c) associates with syntaxin-4.46 (IV) SNARE complex assembly of syntaxins with WPB-associated VAMP 3/8,59 potentially facilitated by Munc13-4.25 Fusion of WPB and plasma membrane and dispersal of WPB cargo into vascular lumen.
