Erythrocyte Membrane Protein 3 (EMAP3) Is Exposed on the Surface of the Plasmodium berghei Infected Red Blood Cell

Molecular Microbiology, Volume 125, Issue 3, Page 233-249, March 2026.
Erythrocyte membrane protein 3 (EMAP3) is a novel Plasmodium berghei protein that is trafficked to the outer membrane surface of the infected red blood cell (iRBC). EMAP3 is not critical for parasite growth or sequestration but offers a new scaffold for displaying Plasmodium falciparum proteins on iRBCs.

CARD9 Conveys Pancreatic Islet Sympathetic Nervous β2 Signals to Reshape Macrophage Creatine Metabolism in Type 1 Diabetes

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 3, 14 January 2026.
This study identifies CARD9 as a key mediator linking sympathetic β2‐adrenergic receptor signaling to macrophage creatine metabolism, inflammatory polarization, and neuronal integrity. Loss of β2‐AR‐PKA‐CREB1‐CARD9 signaling in macrophages reduces creatine uptake, promotes pro‐inflammatory macrophage activation, and drives sympathetic axon ferroptosis.
