Summary Plant immunity is complex, and studies of leaf epidermal cells attacked by powdery mildew fungi have been instrumental in revealing how it relies on plant endomembrane trafficking. Immunity against these biotrophic fungi is manifested as cell wall deposits (‘papillae’) and the hypersensitive reaction (HR), both involving plant endomembrane ...

Specific recycling receptors are targeted to the immune synapse by the intraflagellar transport system [PDF]
T cell activation requires sustained signaling at the immune synapse (IS), a specialized interface with the APC that assembles following TCR engagement by MHC-bound peptide.

Regulation of autophagy by the nuclear factor κB signaling pathway in the hippocampus of rats with sepsis [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Sepsis with brain dysfunction has contributed to an increase risk of morbidity and mortality. In its pathophysiology, both autophagy and nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) have been suggested to play important roles.

Rab7—a novel redox target that modulates inflammatory pain processing
Abstract Chronic pain is accompanied by production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in various cells that are important for nociceptive processing. Recent data indicate that ROS can trigger specific redox-dependent signaling processes, but the molecular targets of ROS signaling in the nociceptive system remain largely elusive.

A postsynaptic PI3K-cII dependent signaling controller for presynaptic homeostatic plasticity. [PDF]
Presynaptic homeostatic plasticity stabilizes information transfer at synaptic connections in organisms ranging from insect to human. By analogy with principles of engineering and control theory, the molecular implementation of PHP is thought to require ...

Structural and mechanistic insights into regulation of the retromer coat by TBC1d5
Retromer is recruited to endosomes by the small GTPase Rab7 and sorting nexin 3. Here, the authors report the interaction between a GTPase-activating protein TBC1d5 and Rab7, examine the biochemical details of the interaction with retromer, and discuss ...

Spatiotemporal recruitment of the ubiquitin-specific protease USP8 directs endosome maturation
The spatiotemporal transition of small GTPase Rab5 to Rab7 is crucial for early-to-late endosome maturation, yet the precise mechanism governing Rab5-to-Rab7 switching remains elusive.
