Tumor CEMIP drives immune evasion of colorectal cancer via MHC-I internalization and degradation by Ying Zhu, Jiao Li, Tao Zhang, Lei Zhao, Min Jin, Jinghua Ren, Jing Tang, Haihong Wang, Zhenyu Lin, Qing Liang, Ruiqi Li, Biying Zhang, Qingling Hua, Guojie Xu, Jiayuan Chen, Lanqing Wang, Dejun Zhang, Dandan Yu

“…Mechanistically, CEMIP acted as an adaptor for the interaction betweenMHC-I and clathrin, which drove MHC-I internalization via clathrin-dependent endocytosis. Furthermore, CEMIP anchored internalized MHC-I to lysosomes for degradation, disrupting the recycling of MHC-I to the cell surface.Conclusion Overall, our study unveils a novel regulatory mechanism of MHC-I on tumor cell surfaces by CEMIP-mediated internalization and degradation. …”

The agronomic mechanism of root lodging resistance and yield stability for sweet corn in response to planting density and nitrogen rates at different planting dates by Qinggan Liang, Qinggan Liang, Qinggan Liang, Qinggan Liang, Hailong Chang, Hailong Chang, Hongrong Chen, Hongrong Chen, Qingdan Wu, Qingdan Wu, Yuanxia Qin, Zhuqing Wang, Gang Wang, Xuhui Li, Weiwei Chen, Jiantao Wu, Jiantao Wu, Qinnan Wang, Jianqiang Wang, Jianqiang Wang

“…These effects are mediated by the underlying metabolism of endogenous phytohormones, which balance the absorbing and anchoring function of the root system. This further improved the development of plant crown architecture, including stem nodes and ear leaf traits, and further coordinated dry matter dynamics and lignin metabolism between the root and shoot organs. …”

A concept of natural genome reconstruction. Part 2. Effect of extracellular double-stranded DNA fragments on hematopoietic stem cells by V. S. Ruzanova, S. G. Oshikhmina, A. S. Proskurina, G. S. Ritter, S. S. Kirikovich, E. V. Levites, Y. R. Efremov, T. V. Karamysheva, M. I. Meschaninova, A. L. Mamaev, O. S. Taranov, A. S. Bogachev, S. V. Sidorov, S. D. Nikonov, O. Y. Leplina, A. A. Ostanin, E. R. Chernykh, N. A. Kolchanov, E. V. Dolgova, S. S. Bogachev

“…It is known that the process of internalization of extracellular DNA fragments involves glycocalyx structures, which include glycoproteins/protein glycans, glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored proteins and scavenger receptors. The bioinformatic analysis conducted indicates that the main surface marker proteins of hematopoietic stem cells belong to the indicated groups of factors and contain specific DNA binding sites, including a heparin-binding domain and clusters of positively charged amino acid residues. …”

S’approprier, c’est résister. Appropriations spatiales et mobilisation infra-politique des femmes en immobilité résidentielle et sociale dans les bidonvilles de Salé (Maroc)... by Myriame Ali-Oualla

“…A relatively loose regime of urban regulation allowed sporadic settlement by small groups from the same districts, often from the same villages, creating communities that shared cultural references, ways of living, migratory routes and spatialised collective memory – attributes necessary for anchoring a new identity.Thanks to the evolving ambitions of the new arrivals, the shantytown has become a stepping stone to urban living, and one of the most viable housing alternatives, permitting easy and cheap access to urban amenities. …”

Bispecific antibody-mediated redirection of NKG2D-CAR natural killer cells facilitates dual targeting and enhances antitumor activity by Congcong Zhang, Anja Waldmann, Winfried S Wels, Jasmin Röder, Anne Scherer, Malena Bodden, Jordi Pfeifer Serrahima, Anita Bhatti, Nina Müller, Pranav Oberoi

“…However, shedding or downregulation of NKG2D ligands (NKG2DL) can prevent NKG2D activation, resulting in escape of cancer cells from NKG2D-dependent immune surveillance.Methods To enable tumor-specific targeting of NKG2D-expressing effector cells independent of membrane-anchored NKG2DLs, we generated a homodimeric recombinant antibody which harbors an N-terminal single-chain fragment variable (scFv) antibody domain for binding to NKG2D, linked via a human IgG4 Fc region to a second C-terminal scFv antibody domain for recognition of the tumor-associated antigen ErbB2 (HER2). …”

“…This isoform contains an inhibitory ITIM motif within a cytoplasmic tail anchored to the cortical cytoskeleton. We thus generated a non-signaling CD32B1 mutant lacking the ITIM motif (termed ITIM-less CD32B1, or ILCD32B1) and successfully expressed it in human T cells which normally do not express this FcR. …”
