General description

VAMP-3 also known as cellubrevin is a vesicular transport protein and SNARE protein important in vesicle trafficking and exocytosis that helps regulate the release of critical components and processes such as blood clotting and inflammatory responses through the release of secretory granules and secretory vesicles. VAMP3 regulates the release of WPBs from endothelial cells. Weibel-Palade bodies (WPBs) are secretory organelles of endothelial cells that store the thrombogenic glycoprotein von Willebrand factor (vWF). Endothelial activation, for example by histamine and thrombin, triggers the Ca(2+)-dependent exocytosis of WPB that releases vWF into the vasculature and thereby initiates platelet capture and thrombus (blood clot) formation. VAMP3 is also critical to the release of proinflammatory compounds IL-6 and TNF-alpha.VAMP-3 is widely expressed in cells.
