Article Abstract
Protection from viral infections depends on immunoglobulin isotype switching, which endows antibodies with effector functions. Here, we find that the protein kinase DYRK1A is essential for B cell-mediated protection from viral infection and effective vaccination through regulation of class switch recombination (CSR). Dyrk1a-deficient B cells are impaired in CSR activity in vivo and in vitro. Phosphoproteomic screens and kinase-activity assays identify MSH6, a DNA mismatch repair protein, as a direct substrate for DYRK1A, and deletion of a single phosphorylation site impaired CSR. After CSR and germinal center (GC) seeding, DYRK1A is required for attenuation of B cell proliferation. These findings demonstrate DYRK1A-mediated biological mechanisms of B cell immune responses that may be used for therapeutic manipulation in antibody-mediated autoimmunity.

Visible Light Switching of -Functionalized Azo Phthalimides with Tunable -Isomer Stability.
J Org Chem

Department of Organic Chemistry, University of Chemical Technology and Metallurgy, 8 St. Kliment Ohridski blvd, Sofia 1756, Bulgaria.
Herein, a novel class of azo photoswitches based on a phthalimide with an azo bond to the imide ring is presented, exhibiting reversible isomerization under a broad range of visible light irradiation from 405 to 530 nm. Structural variations with heteroaryl or aryl segments attached to the 3-phthalylazo unit exhibit distinct spectral features, such as red-shifted absorption, well-separated absorption bands, and tunable stability of the metastable isomer, ranging from seconds to days. They differ drastically in the half-life of -isomer stability, ranging from several seconds (-methylpyrrole) to days (-methylimidazole).

B cells are critical components of the adaptive immune system that proliferate and differentiate within the secondary lymphoid organs upon recognition of antigens and engagement of T cells. Traditional two-dimensional (2D) cell cultures fall short of replicating the intricate structures and dynamic evolution of three-dimensional (3D) environments found in lymphoid organs, prompting the development of more physiologically pertinent models. Our approach employs -hexanoyl glycol chitosan (HGC) coated ultra-low attachment (ULA) lattice plates to cultivate a 3D co-culture of CD40L-expressing MS5 stromal cells and naïve B cells derived from the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of healthy human donors.

The Impact of Obesity and Overweight on Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients: Real-World Insights from a Biologic and Targeted Synthetic DMARDs Registry. The management of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) has advanced with biological and targeted synthetic disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (b/tsDMARDs). However, obesity, a common comorbidity, impacts treatment and disease progression efficacy.

In recent years, fluorescence-switchable molecules have garnered significant attention as fluorescent dyes for super-resolution fluorescence microscopy, which is increasingly demanded in the field of biochemical imaging. Among such molecules, diarylethene-S,S,S',S'-tetraoxide derivatives have proven particularly promising due to their ability to achieve high contrast fluorescence switching. Diarylethenes incorporating perfluorocyclopentene as the ethene bridge have become the standard scaffold due to their excellent fatigue resistance and thermal stability.

With the goal of manipulating (bio)chemical processes, photoswitches emerge as important assets in molecular nanotechnology. To guide synthetic strategies toward increasingly more efficient systems, conformational dynamics studies performed with atomic rigor are in demand, particularly if this information can be extracted with control over the size of a perturbing solvation layer. Here, we use jet-cooled rotational spectroscopy and quantum chemistry calculations to unravel the structure and micro-hydration dynamics of a prototype photoswitch.
