A guide to characterizing the dynamic mitochondria–endoplasmic reticulum contact sites

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The dynamism, heterogeneity, and functional complexity of mitochondria–endoplasmic reticulum contacts (MERCs) require combined methodological approaches to offset limitations of individual techniques. Here, we review available tools and methodologies for MERC research, outline key technical challenges, and discuss how recent advances deliver ...

Enhancing macrophage phagocytosis of cancers by disrupting the SIRPα/CD47 signaling axis and targeting MUC1 antigen

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
We investigated the role of the signal regulatory protein alpha (SIRPα)/CD47 axis in phagocytosis by disrupting the SIRPA gene in the THP‐1 cell line. The SIRPα KO THP‐1 cells retained their monocyte and macrophage characteristics similar to their wild‐type (WT) counterparts.

CRISPR‐Cas9 screen reveals that inhibition of enhancer of zeste homolog 2 sensitizes malignant T cells to dimethyl‐fumarate‐induced cell death

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
A genome‐wide CRISPR‐Cas9 screen identified H3K27 methylation as a key regulator of T‐cell lymphoma sensitivity to dimethyl fumarate (DMF). Specifically, inhibition of enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) enhanced DMF‐induced cell death in malignant T cells. These results provide functional evidence for the role of EZH2 in modulating drug sensitivity and

Lysine demethylase 4A is a centrosome‐associated protein required for centrosome integrity and genomic stability

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
KDM4A, a chromatin eraser, localizes to the centrosomes. Its demethylase activity is essential for maintaining centrosome number and integrity, independent of gene expression changes. Loss of KDM4A leads to centrosome amplification, pseudo‐bipolar spindle formation, and chromosome segregation errors, including micronuclei and chromatin bridges.
