Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus 2 hijacks CMA-mediated lipolysis through upregulation of small GTPase RAB18. PLoS Pathog 2024; 20:e1012123. [PMID: 38607975 PMCID: PMC11014436 DOI: 10.1371/journal.ppat.1012123] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/25/2023] [Accepted: 03/14/2024] [Indexed: 04/14/2024] Open
Abstract
RAB GTPases (RABs) control intracellular membrane trafficking with high precision. In the present study, we carried out a short hairpin RNA (shRNA) screen focused on a library of 62 RABs during infection with porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus 2 (PRRSV-2), a member of the family Arteriviridae. We found that 13 RABs negatively affect the yield of PRRSV-2 progeny virus, whereas 29 RABs have a positive impact on the yield of PRRSV-2 progeny virus. Further analysis revealed that PRRSV-2 infection transcriptionally regulated RAB18 through RIG-I/MAVS-mediated canonical NF-κB activation. Disrupting RAB18 expression led to the accumulation of lipid droplets (LDs), impaired LDs catabolism, and flawed viral replication and assembly. We also discovered that PRRSV-2 co-opts chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA) for lipolysis via RAB18, as indicated by the enhanced associations between RAB18 and perlipin 2 (PLIN2), CMA-specific lysosomal associated membrane protein 2A (LAMP2A), and heat shock protein family A (Hsp70) member 8 (HSPA8/HSC70) during PRRSV-2 infection. Knockdown of HSPA8 and LAMP2A impacted on the yield of PRRSV-2 progeny virus, implying that the virus utilizes RAB18 to promote CMA-mediated lipolysis. Importantly, we determined that the C-terminal domain (CTD) of HSPA8 could bind to the switch II domain of RAB18, and the CTD of PLIN2 was capable of associating with HSPA8, suggesting that HSPA8 facilitates the interaction between RAB18 and PLIN2 in the CMA process. In summary, our findings elucidate how PRRSV-2 hijacks CMA-mediated lipid metabolism through innate immune activation to enhance the yield of progeny virus, offering novel insights for the development of anti-PRRSV-2 treatments.

Abstract
Exosomes, a type of extracellular vesicle with a diameter of approximately 100 nm that is secreted by all cells, regulate the phenotype and function of recipient cells by carrying molecules such as proteins, nucleic acids, and lipids and are important mediators of intercellular communication. Exosomes are involved in various physiological and pathological processes such as immunomodulation, angiogenesis, tumorigenesis, metastasis, and chemoresistance. Due to their excellent properties, exosomes have shown their potential application in the clinical diagnosis and treatment of disease. The functions of exosomes depend on their biogenesis, uptake, and composition. Thus, a deeper understanding of these processes and regulatory mechanisms can help to find new targets for disease diagnosis and therapy. Therefore, this review summarizes and integrates the recent advances in the regulatory mechanisms of the entire biological process of exosomes, starting from the formation of early-sorting endosomes (ESCs) by plasma membrane invagination to the release of exosomes by fusion of multivesicular bodies (MVBs) with the plasma membrane, as well as the regulatory process of the interactions between exosomes and recipient cells. We also describe and discuss the regulatory mechanisms of exosome production in tumor cells and the potential of exosomes used in cancer diagnosis and therapy.

Rab18 Drift in Lipid Droplet and Endoplasmic Reticulum Interactions of Adipocytes under Obesogenic Conditions. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:17177.

Abstract
The adipose tissue stores excess energy in the form of neutral lipids within adipocyte lipid droplets (LDs). The correct function of LDs requires the interaction with other organelles, such as the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) as well as with LD coat-associated proteins, including Rab18, a mediator of intracellular lipid trafficking and ER-LD interaction. Although perturbations of the inter-organelle contact sites have been linked to several diseases, such as cancer, no information regarding ER-LD contact sites in dysfunctional adipocytes from the obese adipose tissue has been published to date. Herein, the ER-LD connection and Rab18 distribution at ER-LD contact sites are examined in adipocytes challenged with fibrosis and inflammatory conditions, which represent known hallmarks of the adipose tissue in obesity. Our results show that adipocytes differentiated in fibrotic conditions caused ER fragmentation, the expansion of ER-LD contact sites, and modified Rab18 dynamics. Likewise, adipocytes exposed to inflammatory conditions favored ER-LD contact, Rab18 accumulation in the ER, and Rab18 redistribution to large LDs. Finally, our studies in human adipocytes supported the suggestion that Rab18 transitions to the LD coat from the ER. Taken together, our results suggest that obesity-related pathogenic processes alter the maintenance of ER-LD interactions and interfere with Rab18 trafficking through these contact sites.

Abstract
Lipid droplets (LDs) are important organelles conserved across eukaryotes with a fascinating biogenesis and consumption cycle. Recent intensive research has focused on uncovering the cellular biology of LDs, with emphasis on their degradation. Briefly, two major pathways for LD degradation have been recognized: (1) lipolysis, in which lipid degradation is catalyzed by lipases on the LD surface, and (2) lipophagy, in which LDs are degraded by autophagy. Both of these pathways require the collective actions of several lipolytic and proteolytic enzymes, some of which have been purified and analyzed for their in vitro activities. Furthermore, several genes encoding these proteins have been cloned and characterized. In seed plants, seed germination is initiated by the hydrolysis of stored lipids in LDs to provide energy and carbon equivalents for the germinating seedling. However, little is known about the mechanism regulating the LD mobilization. In this review, we focus on recent progress toward understanding how lipids are degraded and the specific pathways that coordinate LD mobilization in plants, aiming to provide an accurate and detailed outline of the process. This will set the stage for future studies of LD dynamics and help to utilize LDs to their full potential.

Proteomics coupled transcriptomics reveals lipopolysaccharide inhibiting peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors signalling pathway to reduce lipid droplets accumulation in mouse liver.

Abstract
Lipid droplets (LDs) are multifunctional organelles consisting of a central compartment of non-polar lipids shielded from the cytoplasm by a phospholipid monolayer. The excessive accumulation of LDs in cells is closely related to the development and progression of many diseases in humans and animals, such as liver-related and cardiovascular diseases. Thus, regulating the LDs size and abundance is necessary to maintain metabolic homeostasis. This study found that lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation reduced the LDs content in the mouse liver. We tried to explain the possible molecular mechanisms at the broad protein and mRNA levels, finding that inhibition of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPAR) signalling pathway by LPS may be a critical factor in reducing LDs content.

The Small GTPase Rab14 Regulates the Trafficking of Ceramide from Endoplasmic Reticulum to Golgi Apparatus and Facilitates Classical Swine Fever Virus Assembly. J Virol 2023; 97:e0036423. [PMID: 37255314 PMCID: PMC10231254 DOI: 10.1128/jvi.00364-23] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2023] [Accepted: 03/24/2023] [Indexed: 06/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Classical swine fever virus (CSFV) is a highly pathogenic RNA virus belonging to the Flaviviridae family that can cause deadly classical swine fever (CSF) in pigs. However, the molecular details of virus replication in the host are still unclear. Our previous studies have reported that several Rab proteins mediate CSFV entry into host cells, but it is unknown whether CSFV hijacks other Rab proteins for effective viral infection. Here, we systematically studied the role of Rab14 protein in regulating lipid metabolism for promoting viral assembly. First, Rab14 knockdown and overexpression significantly affected CSFV replication, indicating the essential role of Rab14 in CSFV infection. Interestingly, Rab14 could significantly affect virus replication in the late stage of infection. Mechanistically, CSFV NS5A recruited Rab14 to the ER, followed by ceramide transportation to the Golgi apparatus, where sphingomyelin was synthesized. The experimental data of small molecule inhibitors, RNA interference, and replenishment assay showed that the phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K)/AKT/AS160 signaling pathway regulated the function of Rab14 to affect the transport of ceramide. More importantly, sphingomyelin on the Golgi apparatus contributed to the assembly of viral particles. Blockage of the Rab14 regulatory pathway induced the reduction of the content of sphingomyelin on the Golgi apparatus, impairing the assembly of virus particles. Our study clarifies that Rab14 regulates lipid metabolism and promotes CSFV replication, which provides insight into a novel function of Rab14 in regulating vesicles to transport lipids to the viral assembly factory. IMPORTANCE The Rab protein family members participate in the viral replication of multiple viruses and play important roles in the virus infection cycle. Our previous research focused on Rab5/7/11, which regulated the trafficking of vesicles in the early stage of CSFV infection, especially in viral endocytosis. However, the role of other Rab proteins in CSFV replication is unclear and needs further clarification. Strikingly, we screened some Rabs and found the important role of Rab14 in CSFV infection. Virus infection mobilized Rab14 to regulate the vesicle to transport ceramide from the ER to the Golgi apparatus, further promoting the synthesis of sphingomyelin and facilitating virus assembly. The treatment of inhibitors showed that the lipid transport mediated by Rab14 was regulated by the PI3K/AKT/AS160 signaling pathway. Knockdown of Rab14 or the treatment with PI3K/AKT/AS160 inhibitors reduced the ceramide content in infected cells and hindered virus assembly. Our study is the first to explain that vesicular lipid transport regulated by Rab promotes CSFV assembly, which is conducive to the development of antiviral drugs.

Abstract
Antiviral protease inhibitors are peptidomimetic molecules that block the active catalytic center of viral proteases and, thereby, prevent the cleavage of viral polyprotein precursors into maturation. They continue to be a key class of antiviral drugs that can be used either as boosters for other classes of antivirals or as major components of current regimens in therapies for the treatment of infections with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). However, sustained/lifelong treatment with the drugs or drugs combined with other substance(s) often leads to severe hepatic side effects such as lipid abnormalities, insulin resistance, and hepatotoxicity. The underlying pathogenic mechanisms are not fully known and are under continuous investigation. This review focuses on the general as well as specific molecular mechanisms of the protease inhibitor-induced hepatotoxicity involving transporter proteins, apolipoprotein B, cytochrome P450 isozymes, insulin-receptor substrate 1, Akt/PKB signaling, lipogenic factors, UDP-glucuronosyltransferase, pregnane X receptor, hepatocyte nuclear factor 4α, reactive oxygen species, inflammatory cytokines, off-target proteases, and small GTPase Rab proteins related to ER-Golgi trafficking, organelle stress, and liver injury. Potential pharmaceutical/therapeutic solutions to antiviral drug-induced hepatic side effects are also discussed.

Abstract
Lipophagy, the process of selective catabolism of lipid droplets (LDs) by autophagy, maintains lipid homeostasis and provides cellular energy under metabolic adaptation, yet its underlying mechanism remains largely ambiguous. Here, we show that the Bub1-Bub3 complex, the crucial regulator involved in the whole process of chromosome alignment and separation during mitosis, controls the fasting-induced lipid catabolism in the fat body (FB) of Drosophila. Bidirectional deviations of the Bub1 or Bub3 level affect the consumption of triacylglycerol (TAG) of fat bodies and the survival rate of adult flies under starving. Moreover, Bub1 and Bub3 work together to attenuate lipid degradation via macrolipophagy upon fasting. Thus, we uncover physiological roles of the Bub1-Bub3 complex on metabolic adaptation and lipid metabolism beyond their canonical mitotic functions, providing insights into the in vivo functions and molecular mechanisms of macrolipophagy during nutrient deprivation.

Abstract
Lipid droplets (LDs) are ubiquitous, dynamic organelles found in almost all organisms, including animals, protists, plants and prokaryotes. The cell biology of LDs, especially biogenesis, has attracted increasing attention in recent decades because of their important role in cellular lipid metabolism and other newly identified processes. Emerging evidence suggests that LD biogenesis is a highly coordinated and stepwise process in animals and yeasts, occurring at specific sites of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) that are defined by both evolutionarily conserved and organism- and cell type-specific LD lipids and proteins. In plants, understanding of the mechanistic details of LD formation is elusive as many questions remain. In some ways LD biogenesis differs between plants and animals. Several homologous proteins involved in the regulation of animal LD formation in plants have been identified. We try to describe how these proteins are synthesized, transported to the ER and specifically targeted to LD, and how these proteins participate in the regulation of LD biogenesis. Here, we review current work on the molecular processes that control LD formation in plant cells and highlight the proteins that govern this process, hoping to provide useful clues for future research.

Cellular communication is essential for effective coordination of biological processes. One major form of intercellular communication occurs via the release of extracellular vesicles (EVs). These vesicles mediate intercellular communication through the transfer of their cargo and are actively explored for their role in various diseases and their potential therapeutic and diagnostic applications. Conversely, lipid droplets (LDs) are vesicles that transfer cargo within cells. Lipid droplets play roles in various diseases and evidence for their ability to transfer cargo between cells is emerging. To date, there has been little interdisciplinary research looking at the similarities and interactions between these two classes of small lipid vesicles. This review will compare the commonalities and differences between EVs and LDs including their biogenesis and secretion, isolation and characterisation methodologies, composition, and general heterogeneity and discuss challenges and opportunities in both fields.

Abstract
Lipid droplets (LDs) are evolutionarily conserved organelles that serve as hubs of cellular lipid and energy metabolism in virtually all organisms. Mobilization of LDs is important in light-induced stomatal opening. However, whether and how LDs are involved in stomatal development remains unknown. We show here that Arabidopsis thaliana LIPID DROPLETS AND STOMATA 1 (LDS1)/RABC1 (At1g43890) encodes a member of the Rab GTPase family that is involved in regulating LD dynamics and stomatal morphogenesis. The expression of RABC1 is coordinated with the different phases of stomatal development. RABC1 targets to the surface of LDs in response to oleic acid application in a RABC1GEF1-dependent manner. RABC1 physically interacts with SEIPIN2/3, two orthologues of mammalian seipin, which function in the formation of LDs. Disruption of RABC1, RABC1GEF1, or SEIPIN2/3 resulted in aberrantly large LDs, severe defects in guard cell vacuole morphology, and stomatal function. In conclusion, these findings reveal an aspect of LD function and uncover a role for lipid metabolism in stomatal development in plants.

Abstract
Milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) proteins surround the triacylglycerol core comprising milk fat globules (MFG). We previously detected a decrease in the size of fat globules during conjugated linoleic acid (CLA)-induced milk fat depression (MFD), and other studies have reported that some MFGM proteins play a central role in regulating mammary cellular lipid droplet size. However, little is known about the relationship between MFD, MFG size, and MFGM proteins in bovine milk. The aim of this study was to investigate the profile of MFGM proteins during MFD induced by CLA. Sixteen mid-lactating Holstein cows (145 ± 24 d in milk) with similar body condition and parity were divided into control and CLA groups over a 10-d period. Cows were fed a basal diet (control, n = 8) or control plus 15 g/kg of dry matter (DM) CLA (n = 8) to induce MFD. Cow performance, milk composition, and MFG size were measured daily. On d 10, MFGM proteins were extracted and identified by quantitative proteomic analysis, and western blotting was used to verify a subset of the identified MFGM proteins. Compared with controls, supplemental CLA did not affect milk production, DM intake, or milk protein and lactose contents. However, CLA reduced milk fat content (3.73 g/100 mL vs. 2.47 g/100 mL) and the size parameters volume-related diameter D[4,3] (3.72 μm vs. 3.35 μm) and surface area-related diameter D[3,2] (3.13 μm vs. 2.80 μm), but increased specific surface area of MFG (1,905 m2/kg vs. 2,188 m2/kg). In total, 177 differentially expressed proteins were detected in milk from cows with CLA-induced MFD, 60 of which were upregulated and 117 downregulated. Correlation analysis showed that MFG size was negatively correlated with various proteins, including XDH and FABP3, and positively correlated with MFG-E8, RAB19, and APOA1. The results provide evidence for an important role of MFGM proteins in regulating MFG diameter, and they facilitate a mechanistic understanding of diet-induced MFD.

Abstract
Cerebellar ataxia is a form of ataxia that originates from dysfunction of the cerebellum, but may involve additional neurological tissues. Its clinical symptoms are mainly characterized by the absence of voluntary muscle coordination and loss of control of movement with varying manifestations due to differences in severity, in the site of cerebellar damage and in the involvement of extracerebellar tissues. Cerebellar ataxia may be sporadic, acquired, and hereditary. Hereditary ataxia accounts for the majority of cases. Hereditary ataxia has been tentatively divided into several subtypes by scientists in the field, and nearly all of them remain incurable. This is mainly because the detailed mechanisms of these cerebellar disorders are incompletely understood. To precisely diagnose and treat these diseases, studies on their molecular mechanisms have been conducted extensively in the past. Accumulating evidence has demonstrated that some common pathogenic mechanisms exist within each subtype of inherited ataxia. However, no reports have indicated whether there is a common mechanism among the different subtypes of inherited cerebellar ataxia. In this review, we summarize the available references and databases on neurological disorders characterized by cerebellar ataxia and show that a subset of genes involved in lipid homeostasis form a new group that may cause ataxic disorders through a common mechanism. This common signaling pathway can provide a valuable reference for future diagnosis and treatment of ataxic disorders.

Abstract
CONTEXT Adipose tissue distribution is a key factor influencing metabolic health and risk in obesity-associated comorbidities. OBJECTIVE Here we aim to compare the proteomic profiles of mature adipocytes from different depots. METHODS Abdominal subcutaneous (SA) and omental visceral adipocytes (VA) were isolated from paired adipose tissue biopsies obtained during bariatric surgery on 19 severely obese women (body mass index > 30 kg/m2) and analyzed using state-of-the-art mass spectrometry. Differential expression analysis and weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) were performed to investigate proteome signature properties and to examine a possible association of the protein expression with the clinical data. RESULTS We identified 3686 protein groups and found 1140 differentially expressed proteins (adj. P value < 0.05), of which 576 proteins were upregulated in SA and 564 in VA samples. We provide a global protein profile of abdominal SA and omental VA, present the most differentially expressed pathways and processes distinguishing SA from VA, and correlate them with clinical and body composition data. We show that SA are significantly more active in processes linked to vesicular transport and secretion, and to increased lipid metabolism activity. Conversely, the expression of proteins involved in the mitochondrial energy metabolism and translational or biosynthetic activity is higher in VA. CONCLUSION Our analysis represents a valuable resource of protein expression profiles in abdominal SA and omental VA, highlighting key differences in their role in obesity.

Abstract
Diabetic nephropathy (DN) involves serious lipid metabolism disorder, and renal ectopic lipid deposition aggravates DN progression. However, the molecular mechanism of renal lipid deposition in DN remains unclear. Lipid droplets (LDs) are lipid pools in cells that change dynamically in response to the cellular energy needs. The LDs and mitochondria are connected through a part of the mitochondria known as the peridroplet mitochondria (PDM). In this review, we summarize the definition, detection methods, and function of the PDM. Finally, we discuss the research status of PDM in DN and the possibility of its use as a therapeutic target.

Abstract
The prevalence of non-obese nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is increasing worldwide with unclear etiology and pathogenesis. Here, we show GP73, a Golgi protein upregulated in livers from patients with a variety of liver diseases, exhibits Rab GTPase-activating protein (GAP) activity regulating ApoB export. Upon regular-diet feeding, liver-GP73-high mice display non-obese NAFLD phenotype, characterized by reduced body weight, intrahepatic lipid accumulation, and gradual insulin resistance development, none of which can be recapitulated in liver-GAP inactive GP73-high mice. Common and specific gene expression signatures associated with GP73-induced non-obese NAFLD and high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obese NAFLD are revealed. Notably, metformin inactivates the GAP activity of GP73 and alleviates GP73-induced non-obese NAFLD. GP73 is pathologically elevated in NAFLD individuals without obesity, and GP73 blockade improves whole-body metabolism in non-obese NAFLD mouse model. These findings reveal a pathophysiological role of GP73 in triggering non-obese NAFLD and may offer an opportunity for clinical intervention. Dysregulation of lipid metabolism and transport contribute to the pathogenesis of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Here the authors identify GP73 as a TBC-domain Rab GTPase-activating protein that regulates very low-density lipoprotein export and promotes NAFLD development in mice.

Abstract
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a complex and progressive neurodegenerative disorder with a prevalence of approximately 0.5–1% among those aged 65–70 years. Although most of its clinical manifestations are due to a loss of dopaminergic neurons, the PD etiology is largely unknown. PD is caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors, and the exact interplay between genes and the environment is still debated. Several biological processes have been implicated in PD, including mitochondrial or lysosomal dysfunctions, alteration in protein clearance, and neuroinflammation, but a common molecular mechanism connecting the different cellular alterations remains incompletely understood. Accumulating evidence underlines a significant role of lipids in the pathological pathways leading to PD. Beside the well-described lipid alteration in idiopathic PD, this review summarizes the several lipid alterations observed in experimental models expressing PD-related genes and suggests a possible scenario in relationship to the molecular mechanisms of neuronal toxicity. PD could be considered a lipid-induced proteinopathy, where alteration in lipid composition or metabolism could induce protein alteration—for instance, alpha-synuclein accumulation—and finally neuronal death.

Abstract
Lipid droplet (LD) is a vital organelle governing lipid homeostasis and Rab18 has been linked to lipid metabolism. However, the mechanisms of Rab18-mediated LD dynamics in myoblast cells remain elusive. Here, we report that Rab18 plays an important role in oleic acid (OA)-induced LD accumulation in mouse myoblast C2C12 cells. Rab18 was translocated from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to LDs during LD accumulation, which was regulated by perilipin 2 (PLIN2), a major LD protein. LD-associated Rab18 bound with the C terminus of PLIN2 and the LD localization of Rab18 was diminished when PLIN2 was depleted. Moreover, loss of function of Rab18 led to reduced triacylglycerol (TAG) level and fewer but larger LDs. In contrast, overexpression of Rab18 resulted in elevated TAG content and LD number. Furthermore, LD-associated Rab18 interacted with acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 3 (ACSL3), which in turn promoted the LD localization of this protein. These data show that Rab18 interacts with PLIN2 and forms a complex with PLIN2 and ACSL3, which plays a critical role in LD accumulation and dynamics of myoblast cells.

Abstract
Lipid droplets (LDs) perform several important functions like inflammatory responses, membrane trafficking, acts as secondary messengers, etc. rather than simply working as an energy reservoir. LDs have been implicated as a controlling factor in the progression of atherosclerosis followed by foam cell formation that derives from macrophages during the differentiation process. However, the role of LDs in monocyte differentiation or its further immunological function is still an area that mandates in-depth investigation. We report that LD dynamics is important for differentiation of monocytes and is absolutely required for sustained and prolonged functional activity of differentiated macrophages. In THP-1 cell line model system, we elucidated that increase in total LD content in monocyte by external lipid supplements, can induce monocyte differentiation independent of classical stimuli, PMA. Differential expression of PLIN2 and ATGL during the event, together with abrogation of de novo lipogenesis further confirmed the fact. Besides, an increase in LD content by free fatty acid supplement was able to exert a synergistic effect with PMA on differentiation and phagocytic activity compared to when they are used alone. Additionally, we have shown Rab5a to play a vital role in LDs biosynthesis/maturation in monocytes and thereby directly affecting differentiation of monocytes into macrophages via AKT pathway. Thus our study reveals the multi-faceted function of LDs during the process of monocyte to macrophage differentiation and thereby helping to maintain the functional activity.

Rab8 attenuates Wnt signaling and is required for mesenchymal differentiation into adipocytes. J Biol Chem 2021; 296:100488.

Abstract
Differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells into adipocyte requires coordination of external stimuli and depends upon the functionality of the primary cilium. The Rab8 small GTPases are regulators of intracellular transport of membrane-bound structural and signaling cargo. However, the physiological contribution of the intrinsic trafficking network controlled by Rab8 to mesenchymal tissue differentiation has not been fully defined in vivo and in primary tissue cultures. Here, we show that mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) lacking Rab8 have severely impaired adipocyte differentiation in vivo and ex vivo. Immunofluorescent localization and biochemical analyses of Rab8a-deficient, Rab8b-deficient, and Rab8a and Rab8b double-deficient MEFs revealed that Rab8 controls the Lrp6 vesicular compartment, clearance of basal signalosome, traffic of frizzled two receptor, and thereby a proper attenuation of Wnt signaling in differentiating MEFs. Upon induction of adipogenesis program, Rab8a- and Rab8b-deficient MEFs exhibited severely defective lipid-droplet formation and abnormal cilia morphology, despite overall intact cilia growth and ciliary cargo transport. Our results suggest that intracellular Rab8 traffic regulates induction of adipogenesis via proper positioning of Wnt receptors for signaling control in mesenchymal cells.

Abstract
Glioma is the most common and lethal type of primary brain tumor, with a high mortality and recurrence rate. Rab5, which serves as a classic ontogenetic gene, is highly expressed in various types of tumor, including lung cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma and ovarian cancer. However, the exact role and the underlying mechanism of Rab5 in glioma remain unknown. Herein, the role of Rab5 in the tumorigenesis and metastasis of glioma cells was investigated. The upregulation of Rab5 in glioma tissues and cells was observed. The expression of Rab5 was positively associated with proliferation, migration and invasion of glioma cells. Moreover, Rab5 was involved in the cell cycle of glioma cells via the regulation of cyclin E. Data presented in the present study suggest Rab5 as a potential novel diagnostic and prognosis marker of glioma.

Abstract
Lipid droplets (LDs) have classically been viewed as seed storage particles, yet they are now emerging as dynamic organelles associated with developmental and stress responses. Nevertheless, their involvement in plant immunity has still been little studied. Here, we found LD accumulation in Arabidopsis thaliana leaves that induced a hypersensitive response (HR) after Pseudomonas infection. We established a protocol to reproducibly isolate LDs and to analyze their protein content. The expression of GFP fusion proteins in Nicotiana benthamiana and in transgenic Arabidopsis lines validated the LD localization of glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase 4 (GPAT4) and 8 (GPAT8), required for cutin biosynthesis. Similarly, we showed LD localization of α-dioxygenase1 (α-DOX1) and caleosin3 (CLO3), involved in the synthesis of fatty acid derivatives, and that of phytoalexin-deficient 3 (PAD3), which is involved in camalexin synthesis. We found evidence suggesting the existence of different populations of LDs, with varying protein contents and distributions. GPAT4 and GPAT8 were associated with LDs inside stomata and surrounding cells of untreated leaves, yet they were mainly confined to LDs in guard cells after bacterial inoculation. By contrast, α-DOX1 and PAD3 were associated with LDs in the epidermal cells of HR-responding leaves, with PAD3 mostly restricted to cells near dead tissue, while CLO3 had a more ubiquitous distribution. As such, the nature of the proteins identified, together with the phenotypic examination of selected mutants, suggests that LDs participate in lipid changes and in the production and transport of defense components affecting the interaction of plants with invading pathogens.

Abstract
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), an increasingly devastating human disorder, is characterized by intrahepatic fat accumulation. Although important progress has been made in understanding NAFLD, the fundamental mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of NAFLD have not been fully explained. The endo-lysosomal trafficking network is central to lipid metabolism, protein degradation and signal transduction, which are involved in a variety of diseases. In recent years, many genes and pathways in the endo-lysosomal trafficking network and involved in lysosomal biogenesis have been associated with the development and progression of NAFLD. Mutations of these genes and impaired signalling lead to dysfunction in multiple steps of the endo-lysosomal network (endocytic trafficking, membrane fusion and lysosomal degradation), resulting in the accumulation of pathogenic proteins. In this review, we will focus on how alterations in these genes and pathways affect endo-lysosomal trafficking as well as the pathophysiology of NAFLD.

Abstract
Not so long ago, contact sites between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and lipid droplets (LDs) were largely unexplored on a molecular level. In recent years however, numerous proteins have been identified that are enriched or exclusively located at the interfaces between LDs and the ER. These comprise members of protein classes typically found in diverse types of contacts, such as organelle tethers and lipid transfer proteins, but also proteins that have no similarities to known contact site machineries. This structurally heterogeneous group of contact site residents might be required to fulfill unique aspects of LD-ER contact biology, such as de novo LD biogenesis, and maintenance of lipidic connections between LDs and ER. Here, we summarize the current knowledge on the molecular components of this special organelle contact site, and discuss their features and functions.

Abstract
Dendritic cells (DCs) trigger CD8 + T cell responses after the internalization of exogenous antigens in a process called cross-presentation. Multiple intracellular transport events within the endocytic and secretory routes take place in order to accomplish this fundamental immunological process. The endomembrane system can be envisioned as a complex network of membrane domains coordinately working in the fusion of organelles, the budding of vesicles and tubules, and modifying the molecular composition of the limiting membranes. In this context of tightly regulated and dynamic endomembrane transport, small GTPases of the Rab family display a pivotal role by organizing membrane microdomains and defining specific identities to the different intracellular compartments. In this review, we synthesize and update the current knowledge about Rab22a, which has been involved in several immune functions. In this way, we analyze the intracellular localization of Rab22a and its important role in the endocytic recycling, including its relevance during MHC-I trafficking, antigen cross-presentation by DCs and the formation of T cell conjugates. We also describe how different pathogenic microorganisms hijack Rab22a functions to achieve efficient infection and intracellular survival strategies. Furthermore, we examine the oncogenic properties of Rab22a and how its expression determines the progression of many tumors. In summary, we highlight the role of Rab22a as a key effector of the intracellular trafficking that could be exploited in future therapies to modulate the immune system.

Abstract
Cargo following the retrograde trafficking are sorted at endosomes to be targeted the trans-Golgi network (TGN), a central receiving organelle. Though molecular requirements and their interaction networks have been somewhat established, the complete understanding of the intricate nature of their action mechanisms in every step of the retrograde traffic pathway remains unachieved. This review focuses on elucidating known functions of key regulators, including scission factors at the endosome and tethering/fusion mediators at the receiving dock, TGN, as well as a diverse range of cargo.

Abstract
For decades, lipid droplets have been considered as the main cellular organelles involved in the fat storage, because of their lipid composition. However, in recent years, some new and totally unexpected roles have been discovered for them: (i) they are active sites for synthesis and storage of inflammatory mediators, and (ii) they are key players in cancer cells and tissues, especially in cancer stem cells. In this review, we summarize the main concepts related to the lipid droplet structure and function and their involvement in inflammatory and cancer processes.

Abstract
Lipid droplet (LD) homeostasis involves activities of various RAB small GTPases. Recently, we found RAB40C was one of the RAB proteins regulating LD homeostasis. RAB40C contains a unique SOCS domain that is required for clustering of LDs. However, its precise functional role in LD homeostasis and mechanism of regulation remain largely unknown. In this study, we observed over-accumulation of LDs in cells with RAB40C deleted by Crispr-Cas9 editing. RAB40C appeared to reduce LD accumulation after long term incubation of cells with oleic acid (24 hours). Unexpectedly, we found that Ras GTPase activating protein (GAP), DAB2IP, bound to RAB40C mainly via its GAP domain and could serve as RAB40C GAP. Studies involving overexpression of DAB2IP and its GAP defective mutant and siRNA depletion of DAB2IP all confirmed that DAB2IP negatively regulated the effect of RAB40C on LD homeostasis. These results provide a novel perspective on the regulation of RAB40C and implicate various signalling pathways regulated by DAB2IP, which may play a role in LD homeostasis via RAB40C.

Abstract
Rosa mosqueta (RM) oil is rich in α-linolenic acid (ALA) - a precursor of eicosapentaenoic (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), and it has a high antioxidant activity due to its abundant content of tocopherols. Additionally, it has been observed that RM oil administration prevents hepatic steatosis. Thus, the aim of this study was to demonstrate the antilipogenic mechanism related to RM oil administration in a high-fat diet (HFD) fed mice model by evaluating markers associated with the regulation of lipid droplet metabolism (PLIN2, PLIN5 and PPAR-γ), and proteins associated with lipogenesis (FAS and SREBP-1c). C57BL/6J mice were fed either a control diet or a HFD, with and without RM oil supplementation for 12 weeks. The results showed that RM oil supplementation decreases hepatic PLIN2 and PPAR-γ mRNA expression and SREBP-1c, FAS and PLIN2 protein levels, whereas we did not find changes in the level of PLIN5 among the groups. These results suggest that modulation of lipogenic markers could be one of the mechanisms, through which RM oil supplementation prevents the hepatic steatosis induced by HFD consumption in a mice model.
