The traditional distinction between regulated and constitutive secretion may have contributed to the general belief that the latter is insensitive to extracellular modulatory signals. However, it now appears that signalling from membrane receptors can in fact modulate constitutive membrane traffic. In this article we discuss the molecular mechanisms, as well as the functional significance, of this modulation.

Abstract
The traditional distinction between regulated and constitutive secretion may have contributed to the general belief that the latter is insensitive to extracellular modulatory signals. However, it now appears that signalling from membrane receptors can in fact modulate constitutive membrane traffic. In this article we discuss the molecular mechanisms, as well as the functional significance, of this modulation.File in questo prodotto:
