abstract：:Regulated exocytosis is thought to occur either by "full fusion," where the secretory vesicle fuses with the plasma membrane (PM) via a fusion pore that then dilates until the secretory vesicle collapses into the PM; or by "kiss-and-run," where the fusion pore does not dilate and instead rapidly reseals such that the ...
