摘要:Cerebral (Af3) f3 ) plaque and (pTau) tangle deposition are hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease (AD), yet are insufficient to confer complete AD- like neurodegeneration experimentally. Factors acting upstream of Af3/pTau f3 /pTau in AD remain unknown, but their identification could enable earlier diagnosis and more effective treatments. T cell abnormalities are emerging AD hallmarks, and CD8 T cells were recently found to mediate neurodegeneration downstream of tangle deposition in hereditary neu...

摘要:We present a renormalization group (RG) analysis of the problem of Anderson localization on a random regular graph (RRG) which generalizes the RG of Abrahams, Anderson, Licciardello, and Ramakrishnan to infinite-dimensional graphs. The RG equations necessarily involve two parameters (one being the changing connectivity of subtrees), but we show that the one-parameter scaling hypothesis is recovered for sufficiently large system sizes for both eigenstates and spectrum observables. We also expla...

摘要:The Type- I interferon (IFN-I)- I) response is the major outcome of stimulator of interferon genes (STING) activation in innate cells. STING is more abundantly expressed in adaptive T cells; nevertheless, its intrinsic function in T cells remains unclear. Intriguingly, we previously demonstrated that STING activation in T cells activates widespread IFN-- independent activities, which stands in contrast to the well- known STING-- mediated IFN response. Here, we have identified that STING activa...

摘要:The dynamic organization of the actin cytoskeleton, crucial for numerous cellular processes, is intricately regulated by the nucleotide state of actin filaments (F-actin). Visualization tools for specifically detecting ADP-bound F-actin, however, remain limited. Here, we introduce ADPact, a 20-amino-acid peptide that selectively binds to ADP-F-actin. ADPact allows for the precise visualization of ADP-F-actin structures both in vitro and in eukaryotic cells, particularly under energy stress con...

摘要:Cytokinesis is the process where the mother cell's cytoplasm separates into daughter cells. This is driven by an actomyosin contractile ring that produces cortical contractility and drives cleavage furrow ingression, resulting in the formation of a thin intercellular bridge. While cytoskeletal reorganization during cytokinesis has been extensively studied, less is known about the spatiotemporal dynamics of the plasma membrane. Here, we image and model plasma membrane lipid and protein dynamics...

摘要:The ongoing and projected retreat of Arctic sea ice has garnered international interest toward the utilization of Arctic maritime corridors for shipping, tourism, and development. Yet, with potential for increasing traffic in Arctic regions, it's important to consider additional environmental variables affected by climate change which may threaten wave simulations and investigate the future magnitude and seasonality of sea ice risk coupled with wave hazards. Analyzing the potential 5 mo shippi...

摘要:The kinetoplastid parasite, Trypanosoma brucei, , undergoes a complex life cycle entailing slender and stumpy bloodstream forms in mammals and procyclic and metacyclic forms (MFs) in tsetse fly hosts. The numerous gene regulatory events that underlie T. brucei differentiation between hosts, as well as between active and quiescent stages within each host, take place in the near absence of transcriptional control. Rather, differentiation is controlled by RNA-- binding proteins (RBPs) that associ...

摘要:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) is a potentially lethal disease lacking effective treatments. Its immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) allows it to evade host immunosurveillance and limits response to immunotherapy. Here, using the mouse KRT19-- deficient (sgKRT19-- edited) PDA model, we find that intratumoral accumulation of natural killer T (NKT) cells is required to establish an immunologically active TME. Mechanistically, intratumoral NKT cells facilitate type I interferon...

摘要:DNA aptamers have emerged as novel molecular tools in disease theranostics owing to their high binding affinity and specificity for protein targets, which rely on their ability to fold into distinctive three-- dimensional (3D) structures. However, delicate atomic interactions that shape the 3D structures are often ignored when designing and modeling aptamers, leading to inefficient functional optimization. Challenges persist in determining high-- resolution aptamer-protein complex structures. ...
