Unraveling Lysosomal Exocytosis: From Molecular Mechanisms to Physiological Functions
Lysosomal exocytosis is propelled by specific molecular mechanisms that direct its microtubule‐dependent transport and subsequent fusion with the plasma membrane. This process fulfills essential physiological functions such as plasma membrane repair, maintenance of cellular homeostasis, and participation in signal transduction.

Situs Inversus Totalis: A Case Report and Literature Review
ABSTRACT Situs Inversus Totalis (SIT) is a rare congenital anomaly characterized by the complete mirror‐image transposition of the thoracoabdominal viscera. Although typically it has a favorable prognosis, SIT can be associated with ciliopathy‐related disorders, most notably Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD).

Abstract Type B1 and B2 thymomas are lymphocyte‐rich malignant tumours with few somatic mutations in protein‐coding regions of the nuclear genome; nonetheless, noncoding regions remain uncharacterized. Here, we developed a method to isolate pure thymoma cells from lymphocyte‐rich tissues, and then performed genome‐wide deep sequencing. The total number

Diffusion‐based size determination of solute particles: a method adapted for postsynaptic proteins
We present a diffusion‐based approach for measuring the size of macromolecules and their complexes, and demonstrate its use on postsynaptic proteins. The method requires fluorescein‐labelled protein samples, a microfluidic device that maintains laminar flow for said samples, a microscope recording the emitted fluorescent signals, and an analytic ...

The BICD2 dynein cargo adaptor binds to the HPV16 L2 capsid protein and promotes HPV infection.
During entry, human papillomavirus (HPV) traffics from the endosome to the trans Golgi network (TGN) and Golgi and then the nucleus to cause infection. Although dynein is thought to play a role in HPV infection, how this host motor recruits the virus to ...

Mitochondrial Adaptation to Mechanical Stress in Cardiac Ageing and Disease
Mechanical forces shape the heart's energy factories. This review explores how mitochondria in cardiac cells sense and respond to biomechanical stress, altering their structure, positioning, and metabolism. By linking mechanical cues to mitochondrial adaptation, the article highlights pathways driving heart disease and points to new strategies for ...

Dyneins are large multi-component microtubule-based molecular motors involved in many fundamental cellular processes including vesicular transport, mitosis and ciliary/flagellar beating. In order to achieve useful work, these enzymes must contain motor, cargo-binding and regulatory components. The ATPase and microtubule motor domains are located within

Zipping up the Synaptonemal Complex: Pathways to Homologous Chromosome Synapsis
The synaptonemal complex (SC) is a conserved protein structure that assembles between homologous chromosomes during meiosis. Here, we review pathways promoting homologous synapsis across model organisms, examining coordination with homolog pairing and recombination, spatiotemporal regulation of SC assembly, and the conserved molecular modules coupling ...

ABSTRACT DYNC2I2‐related Short‐Rib Thoracic Dysplasia 11 can present prenatally with prominent limb shortening and polydactyly as the primary ultrasound findings, while classic thoracic abnormalities may be subtle. This case highlights the condition's clinical heterogeneity and underscores the importance of genetic testing for accurate diagnosis and ...
