Article Abstract

Endoplasmic reticulum oxidoreductase 1 (ERO1) is an important mediator in regulating disulfide bond formation and maintaining endoplasmic reticulum homeostasis. Its activity is transcriptionally regulated by the unfolded protein response (UPR) in the endoplasmic reticulum, which is known to be essential in immunity. However, whether ERO1 is involved in innate immunity in invertebrates remains unclear. In the present study, two subtypes of ERO1 from Scylla paramamosain were first identified and characterized. Sequence analysis revealed the conserved ERO1 domain and the oxidative capacity assay verified the oxidative capacity of SpERO1 recombinant protein. Moreover, SpERO1s were found to be ubiquitously expressed in all the tested tissues, with the highest expression observed in hemocytes. Two SpERO1s exhibited distinct expression patterns in response to Vibrio alginolyticus and White Spot Syndrome Virus (WSSV). Importantly, the downregulation of the expression of immune factors upon bacterial challenge in SpERO1-silenced crabs was observed. These results provided an initial foundation for further investigations into the role of ERO1 in the innate immunity of invertebrates.

Cholesterol biosynthesis is more activated in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) than in other subtype breast cancer and plays essential role in facilitating TNBC. However, the regulatory network and how cholesterol biosynthesis contribute to TNBC development and progression are not well elucidated. Here, we found that reticulum membrane protein complex 2 (EMC2) is highly expressed in TNBC and predicts short survival of patients.

Intestinal dysmotility is a major complication that significantly impacts the prognosis of acute pancreatitis (AP). The neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) -expressing neurons within the enteric nervous system promote intestinal relaxation via the release of nitric oxide (NO). As the rate-limiting enzyme of NO synthesis, nNOS directly regulates NO production, thereby modulating intestinal motility.

Role of ACE2 in regulating inflammatory damage has been recognized, its association with ER stress and autophagy under PEDV infection remains elusive. To clarify the above associations, this study first established a stress injury model through PEDV infection to determine whether it can induce ER stress or autophagy. Then, the relationships between ER stress, autophagy and ROS under PEDV infection were verified.

Background: Atherosclerosis, a leading cause of cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality worldwide, is characterized by dysregulated lipid metabolism and unresolved inflammation. Macrophage-derived foam cell formation and apoptosis contribute to plaque formation and vulnerability. Elevated serum galectin-3 (Gal-3) levels are associated with increased CVD risk, and Gal-3 in plaques is strongly associated with macrophages.

Understanding how cells control their biophysical properties during development remains a fundamental challenge. While macromolecular crowding affects multiple cellular processes in single cells, its regulation in living animals remains poorly understood. Using genetically encoded multimeric nanoparticles for in vivo rheology, we found that tissues maintain mesoscale properties that differ from those observed across diverse systems, including bacteria, yeast species, and cultured mammalian cells.
