Class III PI3K regulates organismal glucose homeostasis by providing negative feedback on hepatic insulin signalling. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Defective hepatic insulin receptor (IR) signalling is a pathogenic manifestation of metabolic disorders including obesity and diabetes. The endo/lysosomal trafficking system may coordinate insulin action and nutrient homeostasis by endocytosis of IR and ...

Developmental Hypoxia Enhances Kidney Organoid Complexity and Maturity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The current bottleneck in metanephric mesenchyme (MM)‐derived nephron organoid development is the absence of a connected network of collecting ducts (CD) derived from the ureteric bud (UB). To address this limitation, this study proposes a hypoxia‐based differentiation method that mimics the natural renal developmental environment, enabling the ...

The late endocytic Rab39a GTPase regulates the interaction between multivesicular bodies and chlamydial inclusions. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Given their obligate intracellular lifestyle, Chlamydia trachomatis ensure their access to multiple host sources of essential lipids by interfering vesicular transport.

Oral Engineered Extracellular Vesicles Based on Ion Exchange Strategy for Multipronged Management of Wilson's Disease Complicated with Reproductive Dysfunction Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reports for the first time an oral targeted nanomedicine that conducts ion exchange through engineered Ganoderma‐derived extracellular vesicle, managing both the in‐copper and ex‐copper in a multi‐pronged approach, offering a promising therapeutic strategy for addressing WD with reproductive dysfunction.

ALK1 controls hepatic vessel formation, angiodiversity, and angiocrine functions in hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia of the liver

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Hepatic endothelial Alk1 signaling protects from development of vascular malformations while maintaining organ‐specific endothelial differentiation and angiocrine portmanteau of the names Wingless and Int‐1 signaling. Abstract Background and Aims In hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT), severe liver vascular malformations are associated with ...

All the Same? The Secret Life of Prion Strains within Their Target Cells

open access: yesViruses, 2019
Prions are infectious β-sheet-rich protein aggregates composed of misfolded prion protein (PrPSc) that do not possess coding nucleic acid. Prions replicate by recruiting and converting normal cellular PrPC into infectious isoforms.

RAB5A Promotes Active Fluid Wetting by Reprogramming Breast Cancer Spheroid Mechanics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
RAB5A‐mediated unjamming enhances active wetting through distinct biomechanical processes: a) upregulation of specific integrin subunits, enhanced focal adhesions kinetics and activity; b) supracellular organization relying on nanoscale integrin clustering, and the formation of a stiff and collective actin cable; and c) softening of the spheroid core ...

LRRK2 phosphorylates pre-synaptic N-ethylmaleimide sensitive fusion (NSF) protein enhancing its ATPase activity and SNARE complex disassembling rate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background Lrrk2, a gene linked to Parkinson\u2019s disease, encodes a large scaffolding protein with kinase and GTPase activities implicated in vesicle and cytoskeletal-related processes.

In Situ Programming of the Tumor Microenvironment to Alleviate Immunosuppression for Pancreatic Cancer Immunotherapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
cmExoaCD11b induced the repolarization of immunosuppressive M2 macrophages into pro‐inflammatory M1 phenotype, thereby promoting the proliferation and activation of CD8+ T cells and reversing the immunosuppressive state of the tumor microenvironment.

Phosphatidylserine polarization is required for proper Cdc42 localization and for development of cell polarity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We used genetically-encoded fluorescent probes to visualize the distribution of phosphatidylserine (PS) in live S. cerevisiae. The majority of the PS was found to reside in the cytosolic leaflet of the plasma membrane.
