Abstract
The study of the interaction of engineered nanoparticles, including quantum dots (QDs), with cellular constituents and the kinetics of their localization and transport, has provided new insights into their biological consequences in cancers and for the development of effective cancer therapies. The present study aims to elucidate the toxicity and intracellular transport kinetics of CdSe/ZnS and InP/ZnS QDs in late-stage ML-1 thyroid cancer using well-tested HeLa as a control. Our XTT (2,3-bis-(2-methoxy-4-nitro-5-sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium-5-carboxanilide) viability assay (Cell Proliferation Kit II) showed that ML-1 cells and non-cancerous mouse fibroblast cells exhibit no viability defect in response to these QDs, whereas HeLa cell viability decreases. These results suggest that HeLa cells are more sensitive to the QDs compared to ML-1 cells. To test the possibility that transporting rates of QDs are different between HeLa and ML-1 cells, we performed a QD subcellular localization assay by determining Pearson’s Coefficient values and found that HeLa cells showed faster QDs transporting towards the lysosome. Consistently, the ICP-OES test showed the uptake of CdSe/ZnS QDs in HeLa cells was significantly higher than in ML-1 cells. Together, we conclude that high levels of toxicity in HeLa are positively correlated with the traffic rate of QDs in the treated cells.

Abstract
Clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) is the main mechanism by which mammalian cells control their cell surface proteome. Proper operation of the pivotal CME cargo adaptor AP2 requires membrane-localized Fer/Cip4 homology domain-only proteins (FCHO). Here, live-cell enhanced total internal reflection fluorescence-structured illumination microscopy shows that FCHO marks sites of clathrin-coated pit (CCP) initiation, which mature into uniform-sized CCPs comprising a central patch of AP2 and clathrin corralled by an FCHO/Epidermal growth factor potential receptor substrate number 15 (Eps15) ring. We dissect the network of interactions between the FCHO interdomain linker and AP2, which concentrates, orients, tethers, and partially destabilizes closed AP2 at the plasma membrane. AP2's subsequent membrane deposition drives its opening, which triggers FCHO displacement through steric competition with phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate, clathrin, cargo, and CME accessory factors. FCHO can now relocate toward a CCP's outer edge to engage and activate further AP2s to drive CCP growth/maturation.

Abstract
The urokinase plasminogen activator receptor-associated protein (uPARAP/Endo180) is already known to be a key collagen receptor involved in collagen internalization and degradation in mesenchymal cells and some macrophages. It is one of the four members of the mannose receptor family along with a macrophage mannose receptor (MMR), a phospholipase lipase receptor (PLA2R), and a dendritic receptor (DEC-205). As a clathrin-dependent endocytic receptor for collagen or large collagen fragments as well as through its association with urokinase (uPA) and its receptor (uPAR), uPARAP/Endo180 takes part in extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling, cell chemotaxis and migration under physiological (tissue homeostasis and repair) and pathological (fibrosis, cancer) conditions. Recent advances that have shown an expanded contribution of this multifunctional protein across a broader range of biological processes, including vascular biology and innate immunity, are summarized in this paper. It has previously been demonstrated that uPARAP/Endo180 assists in lymphangiogenesis through its capacity to regulate the heterodimerization of vascular endothelial growth factor receptors (VEGFR-2 and VEGFR-3). Moreover, recent findings have demonstrated that it is also involved in the clearance of collectins and the regulation of the immune system, something which is currently being studied as a biomarker and a therapeutic target in a number of cancers.

Abstract
Eukaryotic cells are capable of internalizing different types of cargo by plasma membrane ruffling and forming vesicles in a process known as endocytosis. The most extensively characterized endocytic pathways are clathrin-coated pits, lipid raft/caveolae-mediated endocytosis, phagocytosis, and macropinocytosis. Macropinocytosis is unique among all the endocytic processes due to its nonselective internalization of extracellular fluid, solutes, and membrane in large endocytic vesicles known as macropinosomes with unique susceptibility toward Na+/H+ exchanger inhibitors. Range of cell types capable of macropinocytosis and known to play important role in different physiological processes, which include antigen presentation, nutrient sensing, migration, and signaling. Understanding the physiological function of macropinocytosis will be helpful in filling the gaps in our knowledge and which can be exploited to develop novel therapeutic targets. In this chapter, we discuss the different molecular mechanisms that initiate the process of macropinocytosis with special emphasis on proteins involved and their diversified role in different cell types.

Abstract
For nearly 50 years the proximal tubule (PT) has been known to reabsorb, process, and either catabolize or transcytose albumin from the glomerular filtrate. Innovative techniques and approaches have provided insights into these processes. Several genetic diseases, nonselective PT cell defects, chronic kidney disease (CKD), and acute PT injury lead to significant albuminuria, reaching nephrotic range. Albumin is also known to stimulate PT injury cascades. Thus, the mechanisms of albumin reabsorption, catabolism, and transcytosis are being reexamined with the use of techniques that allow for novel molecular and cellular discoveries. Megalin, a scavenger receptor, cubilin, amnionless, and Dab2 form a nonselective multireceptor complex that mediates albumin binding and uptake and directs proteins for lysosomal degradation after endocytosis. Albumin transcytosis is mediated by a pH-dependent binding affinity to the neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) in the endosomal compartments. This reclamation pathway rescues albumin from urinary losses and cellular catabolism, extending its serum half-life. Albumin that has been altered by oxidation, glycation, or carbamylation or because of other bound ligands that do not bind to FcRn traffics to the lysosome. This molecular sorting mechanism reclaims physiological albumin and eliminates potentially toxic albumin. The clinical importance of PT albumin metabolism has also increased as albumin is now being used to bind therapeutic agents to extend their half-life and minimize filtration and kidney injury. The purpose of this review is to update and integrate evolving information regarding the reabsorption and processing of albumin by proximal tubule cells including discussion of genetic disorders and therapeutic considerations.

Abstract
Clathrin-coated pits and caveolae are nanoscale invaginations of the plasma membrane of cells, forming through the assembly of membrane coat and accessory proteins in a tightly regulated process. We have analyzed the development of these membrane coat structures with high spatial and temporal resolution and sensitivity using super-resolution single-molecule localization microscopy (SMLM) on live cells. To this end, we developed a sophisticated clustering and data analysis workflow that automatically extracts the relevant information from SMLM image sequences taken on live cells. We quantified lifetime distributions of clathrin-coated and caveolar structures, and analyzed their growth dynamics. Moreover, we observed hotspots in the plasma membrane where coat structures appear repeatedly. The stunningly similar temporal development of clathrin-coated and caveolar structures suggests that key accessory proteins, some of which are shared between the two types of membrane coat structures, orchestrate the temporal evolution of these complex architectures.

Abstract
ABSTRACT
Endocytosis is indispensable for multiple cellular processes, including signalling, cell adhesion, migration, as well as the turnover of plasma membrane lipids and proteins. The dynamic interplay and regulation of different endocytic entry routes requires multiple cytoskeletal elements, especially motor proteins that bind to membranes and transport vesicles along the actin and microtubule cytoskeletons. Dynein and kinesin motor proteins transport vesicles along microtubules, whereas myosins drive vesicles along actin filaments. Here, we present a brief overview of multiple endocytic pathways and our current understanding of the involvement of these motor proteins in the regulation of the different cellular entry routes. We particularly focus on structural and mechanistic details of the retrograde motor proteins dynein and myosin VI (also known as MYO6), along with their adaptors, which have important roles in the early events of endocytosis. We conclude by highlighting the key challenges in elucidating the involvement of motor proteins in endocytosis and intracellular membrane trafficking.

Abstract
Cubilin (CUBN), the intrinsic factor-vitamin B12 receptor is a large endocytic protein involved in various physiological functions: vitamin B12 uptake in the gut; reabsorption of albumin and maturation of vitamin D in the kidney; nutrient delivery during embryonic development. Cubilin is an atypical receptor, peripherally associated to the plasma membrane. The transmembrane proteins amnionless (AMN) and Lrp2/Megalin are the currently known molecular partners contributing to plasma membrane transport and internalization of Cubilin. The role of Cubilin/Amn complex in the handling of vitamin B12 in health and disease has extensively been studied and so is the role of the Cubilin-Lrp2 tandem in renal pathophysiology. Accumulating evidence strongly supports a role of Cubilin in some developmental defects including impaired closure of the neural tube. Are these defects primarily caused by the dysfunction of a specific Cubilin ligand or are they secondary to impaired vitamin B12 or protein uptake? We will present the established Cubilin functions, discuss the developmental data and provide an overview of the emerging implications of Cubilin in the field of cardiovascular disease and cancer pathogenesis.

Abstract
Cytoskeletal filamentous actin (F-actin) has long been considered a molecule that may regulate exo- and endocytosis. However, its exact roles remained elusive. Recent studies shed new light on many crucial roles of F-actin in regulating exo- and endocytosis. Here, this progress is reviewed from studies of secretory cells, particularly neurons and endocrine cells. These studies reveal that F-actin is involved in mediating all kinetically distinguishable forms of endocytosis, including ultrafast, fast, slow, bulk, and overshoot endocytosis, likely via membrane pit formation. F-actin promotes vesicle replenishment to the readily releasable pool most likely via active zone clearance, which may sustain synaptic transmission and overcome short-term depression of synaptic transmission during repetitive firing. By enhancing plasma membrane tension, F-actin promotes fusion pore expansion, vesicular content release, and a fusion mode called shrink fusion involving fusing vesicle shrinking. Not only F-actin, but also the F-actin assembly pathway, including ATP hydrolysis, N-WASH, and formin, are involved in mediating these roles of exo- and endocytosis. Neurological disorders, including spinocerebellar ataxia 13 caused by Kv3.3 channel mutation, may involve impairment of F-actin and its assembly pathway, leading in turn to impairment of exo- and endocytosis at synapses that may contribute to neurological disorders.

Abstract
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest family of membrane proteins in the human body and are responsible for accurately transmitting extracellular information to cells. Arrestin is an important member of the GPCR signaling pathway. The main function of arrestin is to assist receptor desensitization, endocytosis and signal transduction. In these processes, the recognition and binding of arrestin to phosphorylated GPCRs is fundamental. However, the mechanism by which arrestin recognizes phosphorylated GPCRs is not fully understood. The GPCR phosphorylation recognition "bar code model" and "flute" model describe the basic process of receptor phosphorylation recognition in terms of receptor phosphorylation sites, arrestin structural changes and downstream signaling. These two models suggest that GPCR phosphorylation recognition is a process involving multiple factors. This process can be described by a "QR code" model in which ligands, GPCRs, G protein-coupled receptor kinase, arrestin, and phosphorylation sites work together to determine the biological functions of phosphorylated receptors.

Abstract
Seed storage proteins (SSPs) are of great importance in plant science and agriculture, particularly in cereal crops, due to their nutritional value and their impact on food properties. During seed maturation, massive amounts of SSPs are synthesized and deposited either within protein bodies derived from the endoplasmic reticulum, or into specialized protein storage vacuoles (PSVs). The processing and trafficking of SSPs vary among plant species, tissues, and even developmental stages, as well as being influenced by SSP composition. The different trafficking routes, which affect the amount of SSPs that seeds accumulate and their composition and modifications, rely on a highly dynamic and functionally specialized endomembrane system. Although the general steps in SSP trafficking have been studied in various plants, including cereals, the detailed underlying molecular and regulatory mechanisms are still elusive. In this review, we discuss the main endomembrane routes involved in SSP trafficking to the PSV in Arabidopsis and other eudicots, and compare and contrast the SSP trafficking pathways in major cereal crops, particularly in rice and maize. In addition, we explore the challenges and strategies for analyzing the endomembrane system in cereal crops.

Abstract
Insects have evolved numerous adaptations and colonized diverse terrestrial environments. Several polyneopterans, including dictyopterans (cockroaches and mantids) and locusts, have developed oothecae, but little is known about the molecular mechanism, physiological function, and evolutionary significance of ootheca formation. Here, we demonstrate that the cockroach asymmetric colleterial glands produce vitellogenins, proline-rich protein, and glycine-rich protein as major ootheca structural proteins (OSPs) that undergo sclerotization and melanization for ootheca formation through the cooperative protocatechuic acid pathway and dopachrome and dopaminechrome subpathway. Functionally, OSP sclerotization and melanization prevent eggs from losing water at warm and dry conditions, and thus effectively maintain embryo viability. Dictyopterans and locusts convergently evolved vitellogenins, apolipoprotein D, and laminins as OSPs, whereas within Dictyoptera, cockroaches and mantids independently developed glycine-rich protein and fibroins as OSPs. Highlighting the ecological-evolutionary importance, convergent ootheca formation represents a successful reproductive strategy in Polyneoptera that promoted the radiation and establishment of cockroaches, mantids, and locusts.

Clathrin-mediated endocytosis cooperates with bulk endocytosis to generate vesicles. iScience 2022; 25:103809.

Abstract
Clathrin-mediated endocytosis, the most prominent endocytic mode, is thought to be generated primarily from relatively flat patches of the plasma membrane. By employing conventional and platinum replica electron microscopy and super-resolution STED microscopy in neuroendocrine chromaffin cells, we found that large Ω-shaped or dome-shaped plasma membrane invaginations, previously thought of as the precursor of bulk endocytosis, are primary sites for clathrin-coated pit generation after depolarization. Clathrin-coated pits are more densely packed at invaginations rather than flat membranes, suggesting that invaginations are preferred sites for clathrin-coated pit formation, likely because their positive curvature facilitates coated-pit formation. Thus, clathrin-mediated endocytosis closely collaborates with bulk endocytosis to enhance endocytic capacity in active secretory cells. This direct collaboration between two classically independent endocytic pathways is of broad importance given the central role of both clathrin-mediated endocytosis and bulk endocytosis in neurons, endocrine cells, immune cells, and many other cell types throughout the body.

Abstract
Background Preeclampsia (PE), a placenta-associated pregnancy complication, is the leading cause of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality. Met/Erk signaling is inhibited in the placentas of patients with early-onset preeclampsia (E-PE), but the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. In this study, the expression modes of Met and endocytic vesicles in normal and preeclamptic placentas were compared. Biotinylation internalization/recycling assays were used to measure the endocytosis of Met under hypoxia and normoxia in HTR8/SVneo cells. In addition, the expression level of Cbl, a specific E3 ligase of Met, was measured under hypoxia and normoxia, and the endocytosis of Met was studied by using confocal microscopy. Results We found considerable intracellular accumulation of Met, which was colocalized with caveolin-1 (CAV-1), in trophoblasts from E-PE placentas. Prolonged hypoxic stimulation led to the remarkable augmentation of CAV-1-mediated Met endocytosis in HTR8/SVneo cells. In addition, the expression of Cbl was substantially repressed by sustained hypoxia, disrupting ubiquitin degradation and the subsequent intracellular accumulation of Met in HTR8/SVneo cells. The abnormal degradation of Met hampered the ability of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) to promote trophoblast cell invasion. In E-PE placentas, aberrant upregulation of CAV-1 and downregulation of Cbl were observed in parallel to the intracellular accumulation of Met. Conclusions These findings reveal that prolonged hypoxic stress induces the augmentation of endocytosis and repression of ubiquitin-mediated Met degradation, which leads to the impaired regulation of trophoblast invasion by HGF/Met signaling. These data provide novel evidence for elucidating the pathogenesis of preeclampsia, especially of the early-onset subtype.

Abstract
At postsynaptic sites of neurons, a prominent clathrin-coated structure, the endocytic zone (EZ), controls the trafficking of glutamate receptors and is essential for synaptic plasticity. Despite its importance, little is known about how this clathrin structure is organized to mediate endocytosis. We used live-cell and super-resolution microscopy to reveal the dynamic organization of this poorly understood clathrin structure in rat hippocampal neurons. We found that a subset of endocytic proteins only transiently appeared at postsynaptic sites. In contrast, other proteins were persistently enriched and partitioned at the edge of the EZ. We found that uncoupling the EZ from the synapse led to the loss of most of these components, while disrupting interactions with the actin cytoskeleton or membrane did not alter EZ positioning. Finally, we found that plasticity-inducing stimuli promoted the reorganization of the EZ. We conclude that the EZ is a stable, highly organized molecular platform where components are differentially recruited and positioned to orchestrate the endocytosis of synaptic receptors.

Abstract
Endomembrane trafficking is essential for all eukaryotic cells. The best-characterized membrane trafficking organelles include the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), Golgi apparatus, early and recycling endosomes, multivesicular body, or late endosome, lysosome/vacuole, and plasma membrane. Although historically plants have given rise to cell biology, our understanding of membrane trafficking has mainly been shaped by the much more studied mammalian and yeast models. Whereas organelles and major protein families that regulate endomembrane trafficking are largely conserved across all eukaryotes, exciting variations are emerging from advances in plant cell biology research. In this review, we summarize the current state of knowledge on plant endomembrane trafficking, with a focus on four distinct trafficking pathways: ER-to-Golgi transport, endocytosis, trans-Golgi network-to-vacuole transport, and autophagy. We acknowledge the conservation and commonalities in the trafficking machinery across species, with emphasis on diversity and plant-specific features. Understanding the function of organelles and the trafficking machinery currently nonexistent in well-known model organisms will provide great opportunities to acquire new insights into the fundamental cellular process of membrane trafficking.

Abstract
Endocytosis is a process essential to the health and well-being of cell. It is required for the internalisation and sorting of “cargo”—the macromolecules, proteins, receptors and lipids of cell signalling. Clathrin mediated endocytosis (CME) is one of the key processes required for cellular well-being and signalling pathway activation. CME is key role to the recycling of synaptic vesicles [synaptic vesicle recycling (SVR)] in the brain, it is pivotal to signalling across synapses enabling intracellular communication in the sensory and nervous systems. In this review we provide an overview of the general process of CME with a particular focus on two key proteins: clathrin and dynamin that have a central role to play in ensuing successful completion of CME. We examine these two proteins as they are the two endocytotic proteins for which small molecule inhibitors, often of known mechanism of action, have been identified. Inhibition of CME offers the potential to develop therapeutic interventions into conditions involving defects in CME. This review will discuss the roles and the current scope of inhibitors of clathrin and dynamin, providing an insight into how further developments could affect neurological disease treatments.

Abstract
The late-acting endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) machinery has been implicated in facilitating the resealing of the nuclear envelope (NE) after mitosis, enabling compartmentalization of the genome away from the cytoplasm. Here, we leverage the stereotypic first division of the C. elegans embryo to identify additional functions of the ESCRT machinery in maintaining the structure of the inner nuclear membrane. Specifically, impaired ESCRT function results in a defect in the pruning of inner nuclear membrane invaginations, which arise normally during NE reformation and expansion. Additionally, in combination with a hypomorphic mutation that interferes with assembly of the underlying nuclear lamina, inhibition of ESCRT function significantly perturbs NE architecture and increases chromosome segregation defects, resulting in penetrant embryonic lethality. Our findings highlight links between ESCRT-mediated inner nuclear membrane remodeling, maintenance of nuclear envelope morphology, and the preservation of the genome during early development. In this study, Shankar et al. demonstrate that defects in ESCRT machinery functions impair pruning of inner nuclear membrane invaginations that form normally after mitotic exit as the nuclear envelope undergoes expansion. These findings highlight a critical role for the ESCRT machinery in the maintenance of inner nuclear membrane morphology.

Abstract
Influenza A virus (IAV) is a global health threat. The cellular endocytic machineries harnessed by IAV remain elusive. Here, by tracking single IAV particles and quantifying the internalized IAV, we found that the sphingomyelin (SM)-sequestered cholesterol, but not the accessible cholesterol, is essential for the clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) of IAV. The clathrin-independent endocytosis of IAV is cholesterol-independent. Whereas, the CME of transferrin depends on SM-sequestered cholesterol and accessible cholesterol. Furthermore, three-color single-virus tracking and electron microscopy showed that the SM-cholesterol complex nanodomain is recruited to the IAV-containing clathrin-coated structure (CCS) and facilitates neck constriction of the IAV-containing CCS. Meanwhile, formin-binding protein 17 (FBP17), a membrane-bending protein which activates actin nucleation, is recruited to IAV-CCS complex in a manner dependent on the SM-cholesterol complex. We propose that the SM-cholesterol nanodomain at the neck of CCS recruits FBP17 to induce neck constriction by activating actin assembly. These results unequivocally show the physiological importance of the SM-cholesterol complex in IAV entry. Importance: IAV infects the cells by harnessing cellular endocytic machineries. Better understanding of the cellular machineries used for its entry might lead to the development of antiviral strategies, and would also provide important insights into physiological endocytic processes. This work demonstrated that a special pool of cholesterol in plasma membrane, SM-sequestered cholesterol, recruits FBP17 for the constriction of clathrin-coated pits in IAV entry. Meanwhile, the clathrin-independent cell entry of IAV is cholesterol-independent. The internalization of transferrin, the gold-standard cargo endocytosed solely via CME, is much less dependent on the SM-cholesterol complex. These results would provide new insights into IAV infection and pathway/cargo-specific involvement of cholesterol pool(s).

Abstract
Coxiella burnetii is a Gram-negative, obligate intracellular, macrophage-tropic bacterium and the causative agent of the zoonotic disease Q fever. The epidemiology of Q fever is associated with the presence of infected animals; sheep, goats, cattle, and humans primarily become infected by inhalation of contaminated aerosols. In humans, the acute phase of the disease is characterized primarily by influenza-like symptoms, and approximately 3-5% of the infected individuals develop chronic infection. C. burnetii infection activates many types of immune responses, and the bacteria's genome encodes for numerous effector proteins that interact with host immune signaling mechanisms. Here, we will discuss two forms of programmed cell death, apoptosis and pyroptosis. Apoptosis is a form of non-inflammatory cell death that leads to phagocytosis of small membrane-bound bodies. Conversely, pyroptosis results in lytic cell death accompanied by the release of proinflammatory cytokines. Both apoptosis and pyroptosis have been implicated in the clearance of intracellular bacterial pathogens, including C. burnetii. Finally, we will discuss the role of autophagy, the degradation of unwanted cellular components, during C. burnetii infection. Together, the review of these forms of programmed cell death will open new research questions aimed at combating this highly infectious pathogen for which treatment options are limited.

Abstract
Sleep deprivation (SD) is commonplace in the modern way of life and has a substantial social, medical, and human cost. Sleep deprivation induces cognitive impairment such as loss of executive attention, working memory decline, poor emotion regulation, increased reaction times, and higher cognitive functions are particularly vulnerable to sleep loss. Furthermore, SD is associated with obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, cancer, and a vast majority of psychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders are accompanied by sleep disturbances. Despite the widespread scientific interest in the effect of sleep loss on synaptic function, there is a lack of investigation focusing on synaptic transmission on the proteome level. In the present study, we report the effects of SD and recovery period (RP) on the cortical synaptic proteome in rats. Synaptosomes were isolated after 8 h of SD performed by gentle handling and after 16 h of RP. The purity of synaptosome fraction was validated with western blot and electron microscopy, and the protein abundance alterations were analyzed by mass spectrometry. We observed that SD and RP have a wide impact on neurotransmitter-related proteins at both the presynaptic and postsynaptic membranes. The abundance of synaptic proteins has changed to a greater extent in consequence of SD than during RP: we identified 78 proteins with altered abundance after SD and 39 proteins after the course of RP. Levels of most of the altered proteins were upregulated during SD, while RP showed the opposite tendency, and three proteins (Gabbr1, Anks1b, and Decr1) showed abundance changes with opposite direction after SD and RP. The functional cluster analysis revealed that a majority of the altered proteins is related to signal transduction and regulation, synaptic transmission and synaptic assembly, protein and ion transport, and lipid and fatty acid metabolism, while the interaction network analysis revealed several connections between the significantly altered proteins and the molecular processes of synaptic plasticity or sleep. Our proteomic data implies suppression of SNARE-mediated synaptic vesicle exocytosis and impaired endocytic processes after sleep deprivation. Both SD and RP altered GABA neurotransmission and affected protein synthesis, several regulatory processes and signaling pathways, energy homeostatic processes, and metabolic pathways.

Abstract
Clathrin-coated vesicles mediate membrane cargo transportation from the plasma membrane, the trans-Golgi network, the endosome, and the lysosome. Heterotetrameric adaptor complexes 1 and 2 (AP1 and AP2) are bridges that link cargo-loaded membranes to clathrin coats. Assembly of AP2 was previously considered to be spontaneous; however, a recent study found AP2 assembly is a highly orchestrated process controlled by alpha and gamma adaptin binding protein (AAGAB). Evidence shows that AAGAB controls AP1 assembly in a similar way. Insights into the orchestrated assembly process and three-dimensional structures of assembly intermediates are only emerging. Here, we describe a protocol for reconstitution and purification of the complexes containing AAGAB and AP1 or AP2 subunits, known as AP1 and AP2 hemicomplexes. Our purification routinely yields milligrams of pure complexes suitable for structural analysis by X-ray crystallography and electron microscopy.

Abstract
Endocytosis mediates the entry of surface and extracellular cargoes into the cell. In this chapter, we describe assays to quantitively measure the endocytosis of both soluble and transmembrane cargo proteins, taking advantage of cleavable fluorescent dyes labeling cargo proteins or antibodies recognizing cargo proteins. After removing surface-bound fluorescent dye, internalized cargoes are measured using confocal imaging and flow cytometry. We also describe strategies to determine the role of clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) in the internalization of a cargo by using a small molecule inhibitor of CME and knockout (KO) of the AAGAB gene, which encodes an essential regulator of CME.

Abstract
Endocytosis impacts many cell biological functions, including in embryonic stem cells (ESCs). It has been shown that endocytosis is necessary for adequate FGF-signaling within the preimplantation ESC to post-implantation epiblast (EpiLC) pluripotency continuum and is required for proper levels of ERK activation. Quantitative methods at single cell resolution are needed to study endocytosis as well as its regulation and roles in these transitioning populations. The methods in this chapter provide an easily adaptable, multiplexable platform to monitor and quantify endosomal uptake at single cell resolution in live cells following receptor-mediated and non-receptor-mediated endocytosis, including nonspecific mechanisms such as pinocytosis.

Abstract
Neurons are polarized cells of extreme scale and compartmentalization. To fulfill their role in electrochemical signaling, axons must maintain a specific complement of membrane proteins. Despite being the subject of considerable attention, the trafficking pathway of axonal membrane proteins is not well understood. Two pathways, direct delivery and transcytosis, have been proposed. Previous studies reached contradictory conclusions about which of these mediates delivery of axonal membrane proteins to their destination, in part because they evaluated long-term distribution changes and not vesicle transport. We developed a novel strategy to selectively label vesicles in different trafficking pathways and determined the trafficking of two canonical axonal membrane proteins, neuron-glia cell adhesion molecule and vesicle-associated membrane protein-2. Results from detailed quantitative analyses of transporting vesicles differed substantially from previous studies and found that axonal membrane proteins overwhelmingly undergo direct delivery. Transcytosis plays only a minor role in axonal delivery of these proteins. In addition, we identified a novel pathway by which wayward axonal proteins that reach the dendritic plasma membrane are targeted to lysosomes. These results redefine how axonal proteins achieve their polarized distribution, a crucial requirement for elucidating the underlying molecular mechanisms.

Abstract
The serine/threonine protein kinase Akt regulates a wide range of cellular functions via phosphorylation of various substrates distributed throughout the cell, including at the plasma membrane and endomembrane compartments. Disruption of compartmentalized Akt signaling underlies the pathology of many diseases such as cancer and diabetes. However, the specific spatial organization of Akt activity and the underlying regulatory mechanisms, particularly the mechanism controlling its activity at the lysosome, are not clearly understood. We developed a highly sensitive excitation-ratiometric Akt activity reporter (ExRai-AktAR2), enabling the capture of minute changes in Akt activity dynamics at subcellular compartments. In conjunction with super-resolution expansion microscopy, we found that growth factor stimulation leads to increased colocalization of Akt with lysosomes and accumulation of lysosomal Akt activity. We further showed that 3-phosphoinositides (3-PIs) accumulate on the lysosomal surface, in a manner dependent on dynamin-mediated endocytosis. Importantly, lysosomal 3-PIs are needed for growth-factor-induced activities of Akt and mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) on the lysosomal surface, as targeted depletion of 3-PIs has detrimental effects. Thus, 3-PIs, a class of critical lipid second messengers that are typically found in the plasma membrane, unexpectedly accumulate on the lysosomal membrane in response to growth factor stimulation, to direct the multifaceted kinase Akt to organize lysosome-specific signaling.

Proteomics Readjustment of the Yarrowia lipolytica Yeast in Response to Increased Temperature and Alkaline Stress. Microorganisms 2021; 9:microorganisms9122619.

Abstract
Yeasts cope with a wide range of environmental challenges using different adaptive mechanisms. They can prosper at extreme ambient pH and high temperatures; however, their adaptation mechanisms have not been entirely investigated. Previously, we showed the pivotal role and flexibility of the sugar and lipid composition of Yarrowia lipolytica W 29 upon adaptation to unfavorable conditions. In this study, we showed that extreme pH provoked significant changes in the cell wall proteins expression, with an increase in both the chaperones of heat shock protein HSP60 and some other proteins with chaperone functions. The mitochondria activity changes inducing the VDAC and malate dehydrogenase played an essential role in the adaptation, as did the altered carbohydrate metabolism, promoting its shift towards the pyruvate formation rather than gluconeogenesis. The elevated temperature led to changes in the cell wall proteins and chaperones, the induced expression of the proteins involved in the cell structural organization, ribosomal proteins, and the enzymes of formaldehyde degradation. Moreover, the readjustment of the protein composition and amount under combined stress indicated the promotion of catabolic processes related to scavenging the damaged proteins and lipids. Under all of the stress conditions studied, the process of folding, stress resistance, redox adaptation, and oxidative phosphorylation were the dominant pathways. The combined chronic alkaline and heat stress (pH 9.0, 38 °C) led to cross-adaptation, which caused "switching" over the traditional metabolism to the adaptation to the most damaging stress factor, namely the increased temperature.

Abstract
Understanding the genomic alterations in oral carcinogenesis remains crucial for the appropriate diagnosis and treatment of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). To unveil the mutational spectrum, in this study, we conducted whole-exome sequencing (WES), using six mutation calling pipelines and multiple filtering criteria applied to 50 paired OSCC samples. The tumor mutation burden extracted from the data set of somatic variations was significantly associated with age, tumor staging, and survival. Several genes (MUC16, MUC19, KMT2D, TTN, HERC2) with a high frequency of false positive mutations were identified. Moreover, known (TP53, FAT1, EPHA2, NOTCH1, CASP8, and PIK3CA) and novel (HYDIN, ALPK3, ASXL1, USP9X, SKOR2, CPLANE1, STARD9, and NSD2) genes have been found to be significantly and frequently mutated in OSCC. Further analysis of gene alteration status with clinical parameters revealed that canonical pathways, including clathrin-mediated endocytotic signaling, NFκB signaling, PEDF signaling, and calcium signaling were associated with OSCC prognosis. Defining a catalog of targetable genomic alterations showed that 58% of the tumors carried at least one aberrant event that may potentially be targeted by approved therapeutic agents. We found molecular OSCC subgroups which were correlated with etiology and prognosis while defining the landscape of major altered events in the coding regions of OSCC genomes. These findings provide information that will be helpful in the design of clinical trials on targeted therapies and in the stratification of patients with OSCC according to therapeutic efficacy.

Abstract
Attachment of ubiquitin (Ub) to cell surface proteins serves as a signal for internalization via clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME). How ubiquitinated membrane proteins engage the internalization apparatus remains unclear. The internalization apparatus contains proteins such as Epsin and Eps15, which bind Ub, potentially acting as adaptors for Ub-based internalization signals. Here, we show that additional components of the endocytic machinery including CALM, HIP1R, and Sla2 bind Ub via their N-terminal ANTH domain, a domain belonging to the superfamily of ENTH and VHS domains. Structural studies revealed that Ub binds with µM affinity to a unique C-terminal region within the ANTH domain not found in ENTH domains. Functional studies showed that combined loss of Ub-binding by ANTH-domain proteins and other Ub-binding domains within the yeast internalization apparatus caused defects in the Ub-dependent internalization of the GPCR Ste2 that was engineered to rely exclusively on Ub as an internalization signal. In contrast, these mutations had no effect on the internalization of Ste2 engineered to use an alternate Ub-independent internalization signal. These studies define new components of the internalization machinery that work collectively with Epsin and Eps15 to specify recognition of Ub as an internalization signal.

Abstract
Targeted delivery of therapeutics through the use of nanoparticles (NPs) has emerged as a promising method that increases their efficacy and reduces their side effects. NPs can be tailored to localize to selective tissues through conjugation to ligands that bind cell-specific receptors. Although the vast majority of nanodelivery platforms have focused on cancer therapy, efforts have begun to introduce nanotherapeutics to the fields of immunology as well as transplantation. In this review, we provide an overview from a clinician's perspective of current nanotherapeutic strategies to treat solid organ transplants with NPs during the time interval between organ harvest from the donor and placement into the recipient, an innovative technology that can provide major benefits to transplant patients. The use of ex vivo normothermic machine perfusion (NMP), which is associated with preserving the function of the organ following transplantation, also provides an ideal opportunity for a localized, sustained, and controlled delivery of nanotherapeutics to the organ during this critical time period. Here, we summarize previous endeavors to improve transplantation outcomes by treating the organ with NPs prior to placement in the recipient. Investigations in this burgeoning field of research are promising, but more extensive studies are needed to overcome the physiological challenges to achieving effective nanotherapeutic delivery to transplanted organs discussed in this review.

Both Clathrin-Mediated and Membrane Microdomain-Associated Endocytosis Contribute to the Cellular Adaptation to Hyperosmotic Stress in Arabidopsis. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms222212534.

Abstract
As sessile organisms, plants must directly deal with an often complex and adverse environment in which hyperosmotic stress is one of the most serious abiotic factors, challenging cellular physiology and integrity. The plasma membrane (PM) is the hydrophobic barrier between the inside and outside environments of cells and is considered a central compartment in cellular adaptation to diverse stress conditions through dynamic PM remodeling. Endocytosis is a powerful method for rapid remodeling of the PM. In animal cells, different endocytic pathways are activated in response to osmotic stress, while only a few reports are related to the endocytosis response pathway and involve a mechanism in plant cells upon hyperosmotic stress. In this study, using different endocytosis inhibitors, the microdomain-specific dye di-4-ANEPPDHQ, variable-angle total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy (VA-TIRFM), and confocal microscopy, we discovered that internalized Clathrin Light Chain-Green Fluorescent Protein (CLC-GFP) increased under hyperosmotic conditions, accompanied by decreased fluorescence intensity of CLC-GFP at the PM. CLC-GFP tended to have higher diffusion coefficients and a fraction of CLC-GFP molecules underwent slower diffusion upon hyperosmotic stress. Meanwhile, an increased motion range of CLC-GFP was found under hyperosmotic treatment compared with the control. In addition, the order of the PM decreased, but the order of the endosome increased when cells were in hyperosmotic conditions. Hence, our results demonstrated that clathrin-mediated endocytosis and membrane microdomain-associated endocytosis both participate in the adaptation to hyperosmotic stress. These findings will help to further understand the role and the regulatory mechanism involved in plant endocytosis in helping plants adapt to osmotic stress.

Abstract
Kv4 α-subunits exist as ternary complexes (TC) with potassium channel interacting proteins (KChIP) and dipeptidyl peptidase-like proteins (DPLP); multiple ancillary proteins also interact with the α-subunits throughout the channel’s lifetime. Dynamic regulation of Kv4.2 protein interactions adapts the transient potassium current, IA, mediated by Kv4 α-subunits. Small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) is an 11 kD peptide post-translationally added to lysine (K) residues to regulate protein–protein interactions. We previously demonstrated that when expressed in human embryonic kidney (HEK) cells, Kv4.2 can be SUMOylated at two K residues, K437 and K579. SUMOylation at K437 increased surface expression of electrically silent channels while SUMOylation at K579 reduced IA maximal conductance (Gmax) without altering surface expression. KChIP and DPLP subunits are known to modify the pattern of Kv4.2 post-translational decorations and/or their effects. In this study, co-expressing Kv4.2 with KChIP2a and DPP10c altered the effects of enhanced Kv4.2 SUMOylation. First, the effect of enhanced SUMOylation was the same for a TC containing either the wild-type Kv4.2 or the mutant K437R Kv4.2, suggesting that either the experimental manipulation no longer enhanced K437 SUMOylation or K437 SUMOylation no longer influenced Kv4.2 surface expression. Second, instead of decreasing IA Gmax, enhanced SUMOylation at K579 now produced a significant ∼37–70% increase in IA maximum conductance (Gmax) and a significant ∼30–50% increase in Kv4.2g surface expression that was accompanied by a 65% reduction in TC internalization. Blocking clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) in HEK cells expressing the Kv4.2 TC mimicked and occluded the effect of SUMO on IA Gmax; however, the amount of Kv4.2 associated with the major adaptor for constitutive CME, adaptor protein 2 (AP2), was not SUMO dependent. Thus, SUMOylation reduced Kv4.2 internalization by acting downstream of Kv4.2 recruitment into clathrin-coated pits. In sum, the two major findings of this study are: SUMOylation of Kv4.2 at K579 regulates TC internalization most likely by promoting channel recycling. Additionally, there is a reciprocity between Kv4.2 SUMOylation and the Kv4.2 interactome such that SUMOylation regulates the interactome and the interactome influences the pattern and effect of SUMOylation.

Abstract
Peptide-based drug delivery systems have many advantages when compared to synthetic systems in that they have better biocompatibility, biochemical and biophysical properties, lack of toxicity, controlled molecular weight via solid phase synthesis and purification. Lysosomes, solid lipid nanoparticles, dendrimers, polymeric micelles can be applied by intravenous administration, however they are of artificial nature and thus may induce side effects and possess lack of ability to penetrate the blood-brain barrier. An analysis of nontoxic drug delivery systems and an establishment of prospective trends in the development of drug delivery systems was needed. This review paper summarizes data, mainly from the past 5 years, devoted to the use of peptide-based carriers for delivery of various toxic drugs, mostly anticancer or drugs with limiting bioavailability. Peptide-based drug delivery platforms are utilized as peptide–drug conjugates, injectable biodegradable particles and depots for delivering small molecule pharmaceutical substances (500 Da) and therapeutic proteins. Controlled drug delivery systems that can effectively deliver anticancer and peptide-based drugs leading to accelerated recovery without significant side effects are discussed. Moreover, cell penetrating peptides and their molecular mechanisms as targeting peptides, as well as stimuli responsive (enzyme-responsive and pH-responsive) peptides and peptide-based self-assembly scaffolds are also reviewed.

Abstract
The first step in the initiation of effective viral infection is breaking through the cytomembrane to enter the cell. Clathrin-mediated endocytosis is a key vesicular trafficking process in which a variety of cargo molecules are transported from the outside to the inside of the cell. This process is hijacked by numerous families of enveloped or non-enveloped viruses, which use it to enter host cells, followed by trafficking to their replicating sites. Various adaptor proteins that assist in cargo selection, coat assembly, and clathrin-coated bud maturation are important in this process. Research data documented on the involvement of adaptor proteins, such as AP-2, Eps-15, Epsin1, and AP180/CALM, in the invasion of viruses via the clathrin-mediated endocytosis have provided novel insights into understanding the viral life cycle and have led to the development of novel therapeutics. Here, we summarize the latest discoveries on the role of these adaptor proteins in clathrin-mediated endocytosis of virus entry and also discuss the future trends in this field.

Abstract
Nucleic acid aptamers, also regarded as chemical antibodies, show potential as targeted therapeutic and delivery agents since they possess unique advantages over antibodies. Generated by an iterative selection and amplification process from oligonucleotide libraries using cultured cells, the aptamers bind to their target molecules expressed on the cell surface. Excitingly, most aptamers also demonstrate a cell-internalizing property in native living cells, allowing them to directly enter the cells via endocytosis depending on the target. In this review, we discuss selection methods in generating cell-internalizing aptamers via a cell-based selection process, along with their challenges and optimization strategies. We highlight the cellular uptake routes adopted by the aptamers and also their intracellular fate after the uptake, to give an overview of their mechanism of action for applications as promising pharmacological agents.

Abstract
Different types of cellular membranes have unique lipid compositions that are important for their functional identity. PI(4,5)P2 is enriched in the plasma membrane where it contributes to local activation of key cellular events, including actomyosin contraction and cytokinesis. However, how cells prevent PI(4,5)P2 from accumulating in intracellular membrane compartments, despite constant intermixing and exchange of lipid membranes, is poorly understood. Using the C. elegans early embryo as our model system, we show that the evolutionarily conserved lipid transfer proteins, PDZD-8 and TEX-2, act together with the PI(4,5)P2 phosphatases, OCRL-1 and UNC-26/synaptojanin, to prevent the build-up of PI(4,5)P2 on endosomal membranes. In the absence of these four proteins, large amounts of PI(4,5)P2 accumulate on endosomes, leading to embryonic lethality due to ectopic recruitment of proteins involved in actomyosin contractility. PDZD-8 localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum and regulates endosomal PI(4,5)P2 levels via its lipid harboring SMP domain. Accumulation of PI(4,5)P2 on endosomes is accompanied by impairment of their degradative capacity. Thus, cells use multiple redundant systems to maintain endosomal PI(4,5)P2 homeostasis.

Abstract
Recent data support an involvement of defects in homeostasis of phosphoinositides (PIPs) in the pathophysiology of Parkinson’s disease (PD). Genetic mutations have been identified in genes encoding for PIP-regulating and PIP-interacting proteins, that are associated with familial and sporadic PD. Many of these proteins are implicated in vesicular membrane trafficking, mechanisms that were recently highlighted for their close associations with PD. PIPs are phosphorylated forms of the membrane phospholipid, phosphatidylinositol. Their composition in the vesicle’s membrane of origin, as well as membrane of destination, controls vesicular membrane trafficking. We review the converging evidence that points to the involvement of PIPs in PD. The review describes PD- and PIP-associated proteins implicated in clathrin-mediated endocytosis and autophagy, and highlights the involvement of α-synuclein in these mechanisms.

Abstract
Endosomal trafficking of cell surface receptors is essential to their function. Integrins are transmembrane receptors that integrate adhesion to the extracellular matrix with engagement of the cytoskeleton. Ligated integrins mediate diverse signals that regulate matrix assembly, cell survival, cell morphology, and cell motility. Endosomal trafficking of integrins modulates these signals and contributes to cell motility and is required for cancer cell invasion. The phosphoprotein PEA-15 modulates integrin activation and ERK MAP Kinase signaling. To elucidate novel PEA-15 functions we utilized an unbiased proteomics approach. We identified several binding partners for PEA-15 in the endosome including clathrin and AP-2 as well as integrin β1 and other focal adhesion complex proteins. We confirmed these interactions using proximity ligation analysis, immunofluorescence imaging, pull-down and co-immunoprecipitation. We further found that PEA-15 is enriched in endosomes and was required for efficient endosomal internalization of α5β1 integrin and cellular migration. Importantly, PEA-15 promotion of migration was dependent on PEA-15 phosphorylation at serines 104 and 116. These data support a novel endosomal role for PEA-15 in control of endosomal trafficking of integrins through an association with the β1 integrin and clathrin complexes, and thereby regulation of cell motility.

Abstract
Humans are exposed to nanoscopical nanobiovectors (e.g. coronavirus SARS-CoV-2) as well as abiotic metal/carbon-based nanomaterials that enter cells serendipitously or intentionally. Understanding the interactions of cell membranes with these abiotic and biotic nanostructures will facilitate scientists to design better functional nanomaterials for biomedical applications. Such knowledge will also provide important clues for the control of viral infections and the treatment of virus-induced infectious diseases. In the present review, the mechanisms of endocytosis are reviewed in the context of how nanomaterials are uptaken into cells. This is followed by a detailed discussion of the attributes of man-made nanomaterials (e.g. size, shape, surface functional groups and elasticity) that affect endocytosis, as well as the different human cell types that participate in the endocytosis of nanomaterials. Readers are then introduced to the concept of viruses as nature-derived nanoparticles. The mechanisms in which different classes of viruses interact with various cell types to gain entry into the human body are reviewed with examples published over the last five years. These basic tenets will enable the avid reader to design advanced drug delivery and gene transfer nanoplatforms that harness the knowledge acquired from endocytosis to improve their biomedical efficacy. The review winds up with a discussion on the hurdles to be addressed in mimicking the natural mechanisms of endocytosis in nanomaterials design.

Abstract
Clathrin‐coated pits are formed by the recognition of membrane and cargo by the AP2 complex and the subsequent recruitment of clathrin triskelia. A role for AP2 in coated‐pit assembly beyond initial clathrin recruitment has not been explored. Clathrin binds the β2 subunit of AP2, and several binding sites have been identified, but our structural knowledge of these interactions is incomplete and their functional importance during endocytosis is unclear. Here, we analysed the cryo‐EM structure of clathrin cages assembled in the presence of β2 hinge‐appendage (β2HA). We find that the β2‐appendage binds in at least two positions in the cage, demonstrating that multi‐modal binding is a fundamental property of clathrin‐AP2 interactions. In one position, β2‐appendage cross‐links two adjacent terminal domains from different triskelia. Functional analysis of β2HA‐clathrin interactions reveals that endocytosis requires two clathrin interaction sites: a clathrin‐box motif on the hinge and the “sandwich site” on the appendage. We propose that β2‐appendage binding to more than one triskelion is a key feature of the system and likely explains why assembly is driven by AP2.

Abstract
Multimeric cargo adaptors such as AP2 play central roles in intracellular membrane trafficking. We recently discovered that the assembly of the AP2 adaptor complex, a key player in clathrin-mediated endocytosis, is a highly organized process controlled by alpha- and gamma-adaptin-binding protein (AAGAB, also known as p34). In this study, we demonstrate that besides AP2, AAGAB also regulates the assembly of AP1, a cargo adaptor involved in clathrin-mediated transport between the trans-Golgi network and the endosome. However, AAGAB is not involved in the formation of other adaptor complexes, including AP3. AAGAB promotes AP1 assembly by binding and stabilizing the γ and σ subunits of AP1, and its mutation abolishes AP1 assembly and disrupts AP1-mediated cargo trafficking. Comparative proteomic analyses indicate that AAGAB mutation massively alters surface protein homeostasis, and its loss-of-function phenotypes reflect the synergistic effects of AP1 and AP2 deficiency. Taken together, these findings establish AAGAB as an assembly chaperone for both AP1 and AP2 adaptors and pave the way for understanding the pathogenesis of AAGAB-linked diseases.

Abstract
Spatially controlled, cargo-specific endocytosis is essential for development, tissue homeostasis and cancer invasion. Unlike cargo-specific clathrin-mediated endocytosis, the clathrin- and dynamin-independent endocytic pathway (CLIC-GEEC, CG pathway) is considered a bulk internalization route for the fluid phase, glycosylated membrane proteins and lipids. While the core molecular players of CG-endocytosis have been recently defined, evidence of cargo-specific adaptors or selective uptake of proteins for the pathway are lacking. Here we identify the actin-binding protein Swiprosin-1 (Swip1, EFHD2) as a cargo-specific adaptor for CG-endocytosis. Swip1 couples active Rab21-associated integrins with key components of the CG-endocytic machinery-Arf1, IRSp53 and actin-and is critical for integrin endocytosis. Through this function, Swip1 supports integrin-dependent cancer-cell migration and invasion, and is a negative prognostic marker in breast cancer. Our results demonstrate a previously unknown cargo selectivity for the CG pathway and a role for specific adaptors in recruitment into this endocytic route.

Abstract
Adenoviruses represent exceptional candidates for wide-ranging therapeutic applications, from vectors for gene therapy to oncolytics for cancer treatments. The first ever commercial gene therapy medicine was based on a recombinant adenovirus vector, while most recently, adenoviral vectors have proven critical as vaccine platforms in effectively controlling the global coronavirus pandemic. Here, we discuss factors involved in adenovirus cell binding, entry, and trafficking; how they influence efficiency of adenovirus-based vectors; and how they can be manipulated to enhance efficacy of genetically modified adenoviral variants. We focus particularly on endocytosis and how different adenovirus serotypes employ different endocytic pathways to gain cell entry, and thus, have different intracellular trafficking pathways that subsequently trigger different host antiviral responses. In the context of gene therapy, the final goal of the adenovirus vector is to efficiently deliver therapeutic transgenes into the target cell nucleus, thus allowing its functional expression. Aberrant or inefficient endocytosis can impede this goal, therefore, it should be considered when designing and constructing adenovirus-based vectors.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are potential alternatives for mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in the treatment of musculoskeletal degenerative diseases, including intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD). Usually, EVs are internalized and then deliver bioactive molecules that impart phenotypic changes in recipient cells. For effective utilization of EVs in the IDD therapy, understanding the mechanism of EV uptake is of vital importance. In this study, we found that EVs delivered antioxidant proteins to protect against pyroptosis of nucleus pulposus cells (NPCs). In particular, the therapeutic effect of EVs decreased in TNF-α-treated NPCs due to the impaired caveolae-mediated endocytosis pathway. Transcriptome sequencing and functional verification revealed that caveolae associated protein 2 (Cavin-2) played an important role in the uptake process of EVs. We then constructed the Cavin-2-modified engineering EVs via the gene-editing of parental MSCs. These kinds of modified EVs presented an improved uptake rate in TNF-α-treated NPCs, which effectively ameliorated the cell death of NPCs in a three-dimensional hydrogel culture model and retarded the progression of IDD in the ex vivo organ culture model. Collectively, these findings illustrate the mechanism of EV uptake in NPCs and explore the application of engineering EVs in the treatment of IDD.

Abstract
Dynamic actin filaments are required for the formation and internalization of endocytic vesicles. Yeast actin cables serve as a track for the translocation of endocytic vesicles to early endosomes, but the molecular mechanisms regulating the interaction between vesicles and the actin cables remain ambiguous. Previous studies have demonstrated that the yeast Eps15-like protein Pan1p plays an important role in this interaction, and that interaction is not completely lost even after deletion of the Pan1p actin-binding domain, suggesting that additional proteins mediate association of the vesicle with the actin cable. Other candidates for mediating the interaction are endocytic coat proteins Sla2p (yeast Hip1R) and Ent1p/2p (yeast epsins), as these proteins can bind to both the plasma membrane and the actin filament. Here, we investigated the degree of redundancy in the actin-binding activities of Pan1p, Sla2p, and Ent1p/2p involved in the internalization and transport of endocytic vesicles. Expression of the nonphosphorylatable form of Pan1p, Pan1-18TA, caused abnormal accumulation of both actin cables and endocytic vesicles, and this accumulation was additively suppressed by deletion of the actin-binding domains of both Pan1p and Ent1p. Interestingly, deletion of the actin-binding domains of Pan1p and Ent1p in cells lacking the ENT2 gene resulted in severely defective internalization of endocytic vesicles and recruitment of actin cables to the site of endocytosis. These results suggest that Pan1p and Ent1p/2p cooperatively regulate the interaction between the endocytic vesicle and the actin cable.

Abstract
Phosphorylation of the central adaptor protein complex, AP-2 is pivotal for clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME). Here, we uncover the role of an uncharacterized kinase (BMP-2 inducible kinase-BMP2K) in AP-2 phosphorylation. We demonstrate that BMP2K can phosphorylate AP-2 in vitro and in vivo. Functional impairment of BMP2K impedes AP-2 phosphorylation leading to defects in clathrin-coated pit (CCP) morphology and cargo internalization. BMP2K engages AP-2 via its extended C-terminus and this interaction is important for its CCP localization and function. Notably, endogenous BMP2K levels decline upon functional impairment of AP-2 indicating AP-2 dependent BMP2K stabilization in cells. Further, functional inactivation of BMP2K in zebrafish embryos yields gastrulation phenotypes which mirror AP-2 loss-of-function suggesting physiological relevance of BMP2K in vertebrates. Together, our findings propose involvement of a novel kinase in AP-2 phosphorylation and in the operation of CME.

Abstract
The deep-branching protozoan parasite Giardia lamblia is the causative agent of the intestinal disease giardiasis. Consistent with its proposed evolutionary position, many pathways are minimalistic or divergent, including its actin cytoskeleton. Giardia is the only eukaryote known to lack all canonical actin-binding proteins. Previously, our lab identified a number of noncanonical Giardia lamblia actin (GlActin) interactors; however, these proteins appeared to interact only with monomeric or globular actin (G-actin) rather than with filamentous actin (F-actin). To identify F-actin interactors, we used a chemical cross-linker to preserve native interactions followed by an anti-GlActin antibody, protein A affinity chromatography, and liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry. We found 46 putative actin interactors enriched under the conditions favoring F-actin. Data are available via ProteomeXchange with identifier PXD026067. None of the proteins identified contain known actin-interacting motifs, and many lacked conserved domains. Each potential interactor was then tagged with the fluorescent protein mNeonGreen and visualized in live cells. We categorized the proteins based on their primary localization; localizations included ventral disc, marginal plate, nuclei, flagella, plasma membrane, and internal membranes. One protein from each of the six categories was colocalized with GlActin using immunofluorescence microscopy. We also co-immunoprecipitated one protein from each category and confirmed three of the six potential interactions. Most of the localization patterns are consistent with previously demonstrated GlActin functions, but the ventral disc represents a new category of actin interactor localization. These results suggest a role for GlActin in ventral disc function, which has previously been controversial. IMPORTANCE Giardia lamblia is an intestinal parasite that colonizes the small intestine and causes diarrhea, which can lead to dehydration and malnutrition. Giardia actin (GlActin) has a conserved role in Giardia cells, despite being a highly divergent protein with none of the conserved regulators found in model organisms. Here, we identify and localize 46 interactors of polymerized actin. These putative interactors localize to a number of places in the cell, underlining GlActin's importance in multiple cellular processes. Surprisingly, eight of these proteins localize to the ventral disc, Giardia's host attachment organelle. Since host attachment is required for infection, proteins involved in this process are an appealing target for new drugs. While treatments for Giardia exist, drug resistance is becoming more common, resulting in a need for new treatments. Giardia and human systems are highly dissimilar, thus drugs specifically tailored to Giardia proteins would be less likely to have side effects.

Abstract
Endocytosis allows cells to transport particles and molecules across the plasma membrane. In addition, it is involved in the termination of signalling through receptor downmodulation and degradation. This traditional outlook has been substantially modified in recent years by discoveries that endocytosis and subsequent trafficking routes have a profound impact on the positive regulation and propagation of signals, being key for the spatiotemporal regulation of signal transmission in cells. Accordingly, endocytosis and membrane trafficking regulate virtually every aspect of cell physiology and are frequently subverted in pathological conditions. Two key aspects of endocytic control over signalling are coming into focus: context-dependency and long-range effects. First, endocytic-regulated outputs are not stereotyped but heavily dependent on the cell-specific regulation of endocytic networks. Second, endocytic regulation has an impact not only on individual cells but also on the behaviour of cellular collectives. Herein, we will discuss recent advancements in these areas, highlighting how endocytic trafficking impacts complex cell properties, including cell polarity and collective cell migration, and the relevance of these mechanisms to disease, in particular cancer.

Abstract
Lysophosphatidic acid receptor 1 (LPA1) belongs to the G protein-coupled receptor family. The ligand for LPA1 is LPA, the simplest lysophospholipid. LPA is considered a growth factor and induces cell proliferation, anti-apoptosis, and cell migration. The pro-inflammatory and pro-fibrotic roles of LPA have also been well-demonstrated. Most of the biological functions of LPA are mostly executed through LPA1. The mature form of LPA1 is glycosylated and localized on the plasma membrane. LPA1 is bound to heterotrimetric G proteins and transduces intracellular signaling in response to ligation to LPA. Desensitization of LPA1 negatively regulates LPA1-mediated signaling and the resulting biological functions. Phosphorylation and ubiquitination are well-demonstrated posttranslational modifications of GPCR. In this review, we will discuss our knowledge of LPA1 glycosylation, maturation, and trafficking from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)/Golgi to the plasma membrane. Moreover, in light of recent findings, we will also discuss molecular regulation of LPA1 internalization and stability.
