Vps35-deficiency impairs SLC4A11 trafficking and promotes corneal dystrophy. [PDF]
Vps35 (vacuolar protein sorting 35) is a major component of retromer that selectively promotes endosome-to-Golgi retrieval of transmembrane proteins. Dysfunction of retromer is a risk factor for the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD) and Alzheimer ...

Abstract Background The RAB32 p.Ser71Arg variant is a novel cause of monogenic Parkinson's disease (PD), for which detailed phenotypic information is currently scarce. Objectives Our aim was to clinically and biologically characterize individuals with PARK‐RAB32 to gain insights into genotype–phenotype relationships, disease severity, and underlying ...

VPS35 or retromer as a potential target for neurodegenerative disorders: barriers to progress. [PDF]
Introduction Vacuolar Protein Sorting 35 (VPS35) is pivotal in the retromer complex, governing transmembrane protein trafficking within cells, and its dysfunction is implicated in neurodegenerative diseases.

Traffic into silence: endomembranes and post-transcriptional RNA silencing. [PDF]
microRNAs (miRNAs) and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) are small RNAs that repress gene expression at the post-transcriptional level in plants and animals. Small RNAs guide Argonaute-containing RNA-induced silencing complexes to target RNAs in a sequence-

From Yeast to Therapeutics: Modeling Neurodegenerative Diseases in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Yeast plasmids expressing human Aβ‐42, α‐syn, htt, and TDP‐43. Their fate includes an equilibrium between the endocytic pathway and aggregates that potentially disrupt endocytosis, vesicular transport, vacuolar autophagy, and mitochondrial activity. ABSTRACT Here, we review the use of Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a powerful model organism for studying ...

Exosome Tethering Requires Tetherin Homodimerisation
Rather than being released from cells, exosomes can be retained at the plasma membrane via the protein tetherin. Here, we demonstrate that exosome tethering requires the formation of tetherin homodimers, and that mutations in tetherin that impair homodimer formation impair exosome tethering.

Actin polymerization in the endosomal pathway, but not on the Coxiella-containing vacuole, is essential for pathogen growth. [PDF]
Coxiella burnetii is an intracellular bacterium that replicates within an expansive phagolysosome-like vacuole. Fusion between the Coxiella-containing vacuole (CCV) and late endosomes/multivesicular bodies requires Rab7, the HOPS tethering complex, and ...

Genetic Correlates of Brain Aging on MRI and Cognitive Test Measures: A Genome-Wide Association and Linkage Analysis in the Framingham Study [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and cognitive tests can identify heritable endophenotypes associated with an increased risk of developing stroke, dementia and Alzheimer's disease (AD).
