Starving PTEN-deficient prostate cancer cells thrive under nutrient stress by scavenging corpses for their supper

open access: yesMolecular & Cellular Oncology, 2018
Our recent work demonstrates that inactivating mutations in phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) are sufficient to drive macropinocytosis in the context of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activation.

Decoding Biomolecular Phase Separation: From Physiological Roles to Pathological Mechanisms and Therapeutic Biomaterials Design

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This review systematically elaborates on the mechanisms underlying physiological regulation and pathological dysregulation of biomolecular phase separation. It also summarizes advances in phase‑separation‑targeted therapeutic strategies and the design of functional biomaterials inspired by this process.

Cellular Mechanisms Enabling Mitochondria Transfer and Transplantation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Mitochondrial transfer and transplantation (mitoTT) is examined as a multistep process governed by distinct transfer routes and post‐transfer checkpoints. Mechanisms controlling mitochondrial uptake, network integration, cristae remodeling, mtDNA maintenance, immune sensing, and quality control are highlighted, revealing key biological and ...

Structural Variants in the Human Genome Associated With Gut Microbiome and Blood Metabolic Traits With Potential Causal Links

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Based on a multi‐omics cohort of 2002 individuals comprising high‐depth whole‐genome and metagenomic sequencing data, blood metabolites, and detailed questionnaires, we identified 138 859 high‐confidence SVs, uncovering 36 significant SV–microbiome associations and 48 SV–blood metabolite associations.

Functional diversification of the chemical landscapes of yeast Sec14-like phosphatidylinositol transfer protein lipid-binding cavities

open access: yes, 2019
Phosphatidylinositol-transfer proteins (PITPs) are key regulators of lipid signaling in eukaryotic cells. These proteins both potentiate the activities of phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) 4-OH kinases and help channel production of specific pools of ...

Spatially Informed Feature Selection and Machine Learning in Matrix‐Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Imaging for Cohort‐Scale Molecular Tissue Phenomics in Glioblastoma

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
Matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization imaging‐based identification of reliable small molecule markers across heterogeneous glioblastoma cohorts is challenging with intensity‐only methods. We present spatially informed feature selection (SIFS), a spatially informed framework that prioritizes molecules consistently colocalizing with histopathology.

Phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate and phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate regulate phagolysosome biogenesis

open access: yes, 2015
Professional phagocytic cells ingest microbial intruders by engulfing them into phagosomes, which subsequently mature into microbicidal phagolysosomes. Phagosome maturation requires sequential fusion of the phagosome with early endosomes, late endosomes,

Biallelic PIGB Variants Cause Motor Neuropathy with Conduction Blocks and Peripheral Nerve Hyperexcitability

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)‐anchored proteins play critical roles in nervous system function. Pathogenic variants in genes involved in GPI‐anchor biosynthesis cause early‐onset multisystem disorders known as inherited GPI deficiencies. We describe a novel neuromuscular phenotype associated with PIGB deficiency.

The 9+ month marathon: How pregnancy may have shaped human endurance capacities

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Anthropology has long considered the evolution of our uniquely human endurance capacities to be the result of selection upon anatomical and physiological features imposed by the demands of thermoregulation and resource acquisition, particularly during the demands of persistence hunting. Research has focused on the anatomical changes present in

Distinct Molecular Pathways Supporting Sjögren Disease Clusters and Disease Progression

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Sjögren disease (SjD) is a heterogeneous autoimmune disease. We aimed to investigate blood transcriptomic signatures and disease progression among three recently defined clusters of patients with SjD: (1) B cell active disease with low symptom burden (BALS), (2) high systemic activity (HSA), and (3) low systemic activity with high symptom ...
