Article Abstract

Most bacteria will use their toxins to interact with the host cell, causing damage to the cell and then escaping from it. When bacteria enter the cell, they will be transported via the endosomal pathway. Rab GTPases are involved in bacterial transport as major components of endosomes that bind to their downstream effector proteins. The bacteria manipulate some Rab GTPases, escape the cell, and get to survive. In this review, we will focus on summarizing the many processes of how bacteria manipulate Rab GTPases to control their escape.

Metabolic associated steatohepatitis (MASH) is a severe form of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) characterized by hepatocellular injury, inflammation, and fibrosis. Despite advances in understanding its pathophysiology, the molecular mechanisms driving MASH progression remain unclear. This study investigates the role of long non-coding RNA Linc01271 in MASLD/MASH pathogenesis, ant its involvement in the miR-149-3p/RAB35 axis and PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway.

Targeted Blockage of Pathological Extracellular Vesicles and Particles From Fibroblast-Like Synoviocytes for Osteoarthritis Relief: Proteomic Analysis and Cellular Effect.

Osteoarthritis (OA), the prevalent debilitating joint disorder, is accelerated by dysregulated intercellular crosstalk, yet the role of fibroblast-like synoviocyte (FLS)-derived extracellular vesicles and particles (EVPs) in disease progression remains to be elucidated. Here, integrative analysis of clinical specimens, animal models, and publicly available datasets revealed significant alterations in exosomal pathways within OA synovium. Proteomic profiling revealed distinct molecular signatures in EVPs derived from inflammatory and senescent FLSs, reflecting the pathophysiological status of their parent cells.

Allosteric regulation of the Golgi-localized PPM1H phosphatase by Rab GTPases modulates LRRK2 substrate dephosphorylation in Parkinson's disease.

PPM1H phosphatase reverses Parkinson's disease-associated, Leucine Rich Repeat Kinase 2-mediated, Rab GTPase phosphorylation. We showed previously that PPM1H relies on an N-terminal amphipathic helix for Golgi membrane localization and this helix enables PPM1H to associate with liposomes in vitro; binding to highly curved liposomes activates PPM1H's phosphatase activity. We show here that PPM1H also contains an allosteric binding site for its non-phosphorylated reaction products, Rab8A and Rab10.

Ral GTPases have long been proposed as regulators of the metazoan Exocyst, a conserved secretory vesicle-tethering complex, but direct evidence for this role has been scarce. In contrast, the well-studied yeast Exocyst relies on multiple Rab GTPases to regulate function, but yeast do not encode Ral. Using Caenorhabditis elegans we demonstrate that endogenous RAL-1 directly engages the Exocyst through conserved binding sites in its subunits.

The Rab GTPase switch-2 region is a hotspot for post-translational modifications. Its phosphorylation can determine whether individuals develop Parkinson's disease or not. Other modifications of the same region are catalyzed by enzymes from bacterial pathogens when they infect human cells.
