The mechanisms behind the dual role of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) metastasis suppressor-1 in human tumors: Shedding light on the molecular mechanisms. Pathol Res Pract 2024; 256:155189. [PMID: 38452581 DOI: 10.1016/j.prp.2024.155189] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/09/2024] [Revised: 01/30/2024] [Accepted: 01/31/2024] [Indexed: 03/09/2024]
Abstract
When the expression levels of metastasis suppressor-1 (MTSS1) were discovered to be downregulated in a metastatic cancer cell line in 2002, it was proposed that MTSS1 functioned as a suppressor of metastasis. The 755 amino acid long protein MTSS1 connects to actin and organizes the cytoskeleton. Its gene is located on human chromosome 8q24. The suppressor of metastasis in metastatic cancer was first found to be MTSS1. Subsequent reports revealed that MTSS1 is linked to the prevention of metastasis in a variety of cancer types, including hematopoietic cancers like diffuse large B cell lymphoma and esophageal, pancreatic, and stomach cancers. Remarkably, conflicting results have also been documented. For instance, it has been reported that MTSS1 expression levels are elevated in a subset of melanomas, hepatocellular carcinoma associated with hepatitis B, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, and lung squamous cell carcinoma. This article provides an overview of the pathological effects of lncRNA MTSS1 dysregulation in cancer. In order to facilitate the development of MTSS1-based therapeutic targeting, we also shed light on the current understanding of MTS1.

Abstract
The effect of salt damage on plants is mainly caused by the toxic effect of Na+. Studies showed that the secretory carrier membrane proteins were associated with the Na+ transport. However, the salt tolerance mechanism of secretory carrier protein (SCAMP) in soybean was yet to be defined. In this study, ten potential SCAMP genes distributed in seven soybean chromosomes were identified in the soybean genome. The phylogenetic tree of SCAMP domain sequences of several plants can divide SCAMPs into two groups. Most GmSCAMPs genes contained multiple Box4, MYB and MYC cis-elements indicated they may respond to abiotic stresses. We found that GmSCAMP1, GmSCAMP2 and GmSCAMP4 expressed in several tissues and GmSCAMP5 was significantly induced by salt stress. GmSCAMP5 showed the same expression patterns under NaCl treatment in salt-tolerant and salt-sensitive soybean varieties, but the induced time of GmSCAMP5 in salt-tolerant variety was earlier than that of salt-sensitive variety. To further study the effect of GmSCAMP5 on the salt tolerance of soybean plants, compared to GmSCAMP5-RNAi and EV-Control plants, GmSCAMP5-OE had less wilted leave and higher SPAD value. Compared to empty vector control, less trypan blue staining was observed in GmSCAMP5-OE leaves while more staining in GmSCAMP5-RNAi leaves. The Na+ of GmSCAMP5-RNAi plants leaves under NaCl stress were significantly higher than that in EV-Control plants, while significantly lower Na+ in GmSCAMP5-OE plants than in that EV-Control plants. The contents of leaves K+ of GmSCAMP5-RNAi, EV-Control, and GmSCAMP5-OE plants under NaCl stress were opposite to that of leaves Na+ content. Finally, salt stress-related genes NHX1, CLC1, TIP1, SOD1, and SOS1 in transformed hairy root changed significantly compared with the empty control. The research will provide novel information for study the molecular regulation mechanism of soybean salt tolerance.

Genetic dissection of marker trait associations for grain micro-nutrients and thousand grain weight under heat and drought stress conditions in wheat. FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2023; 13:1082513. [PMID: 36726675 PMCID: PMC9885108 DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2022.1082513] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/28/2022] [Accepted: 12/15/2022] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Introduction Wheat is grown and consumed worldwide, making it an important staple food crop for both its calorific and nutritional content. In places where wheat is used as a staple food, suboptimal micronutrient content levels, especially of grain iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn), can lead to malnutrition. Grain nutrient content is influenced by abiotic stresses, such as drought and heat stress. The best method for addressing micronutrient deficiencies is the biofortification of food crops. The prerequisites for marker-assisted varietal development are the identification of the genomic region responsible for high grain iron and zinc contents and an understanding of their genetics. Methods A total of 193 diverse wheat genotypes were evaluated under drought and heat stress conditions across the years at the Indian Agricultural Research Institute (IARI), New Delhi, under timely sown irrigated (IR), restricted irrigated (RI) and late sown (LS) conditions. Grain iron content (GFeC) and grain zinc content (GZnC) were estimated from both the control and treatment groups. Genotyping of all the lines under study was carried out with the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from Breeder's 35K Axiom Array. Result and Discussion Three subgroups were observed in the association panel based on both principal component analysis (PCA) and dendrogram analysis. A large whole-genome linkage disequilibrium (LD) block size of 3.49 Mb was observed. A genome-wide association study identified 16 unique stringent marker trait associations for GFeC, GZnC, and 1000-grain weight (TGW). In silico analysis demonstrated the presence of 28 potential candidate genes in the flanking region of 16 linked SNPs, such as synaptotagmin-like mitochondrial-lipid-binding domain, HAUS augmin-like complex, di-copper center-containing domain, protein kinase, chaperonin Cpn60, zinc finger, NUDIX hydrolase, etc. Expression levels of these genes in vegetative tissues and grain were also found. Utilization of identified markers in marker-assisted breeding may lead to the rapid development of biofortified wheat genotypes to combat malnutrition.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Secretory carrier membrane proteins (SCAMPs) constitute a group of membrane transport proteins in plants, insects and mammals. The mammalian genome contains five types of SCAMP genes, namely, SCAMP1-SCAMP5. SCAMPs participate in the vesicle cycling fusion of vesicles and cell membranes and play roles in regulating exocytosis and endocytosis, activating synaptic function and transmitting nerve signals. Among these proteins, SCAMP5 is highly expressed in the brain and has direct or indirect effects on the function of the central nervous system. This paper may allow us to better understand the role of SCAMP5 in the central nervous system diseases. SCAMP5 regulates membrane transport, controls the exocytosis of SVs and is related to secretion carrier and membrane function. In addition, SCAMP5 plays a major role in the normal maintenance of the physiological functions of nerve cells. This article summarizes the effects of SCAMP5 on nerve cell exocytosis, endocytosis and synaptic function, as well as the relationship between SCAMP5 and various neurological diseases, to better understand the role of SCAMP5 in the pathogenesis of neurological diseases. METHODS Through PubMed, this paper examined and analyzed the role of SCAMP5 in the central nervous system, as well as the relationship between SCAMP5 and various neurological diseases using the key terms "secretory carrier membrane proteins"," SCAMP5"," exocytosis"," endocytosis", "synaptic function", "central nervous system diseases" up to 01 March 2022. RESULTS SCAMP5 regulates membrane transport, controls the exocytosis of SVs and is related to secretion carrier and membrane function. In addition, SCAMP5 plays a major role in the normal maintenance of the physiological functions of nerve cells. CONCLUSION This article summarizes the effects of SCAMP5 on nerve cell exocytosis, endocytosis and synaptic function, as well as the relationship between SCAMP5 and various neurological diseases, to better understand the role of SCAMP5 in the pathogenesis of neurological diseases.

Abstract
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection remains a major global health problem and the primary cause of cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). HBV intrusion into host cells is prompted by virus–receptor interactions in clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Here, we report a comprehensive view of the cellular endocytosis-associated transcriptome, proteome and ubiquitylome upon HBV infection. In this study, we quantified 273 genes in the transcriptome and 190 endocytosis-associated proteins in the proteome by performing multi-omics analysis. We further identified 221 Lys sites in 77 endocytosis-associated ubiquitinated proteins. A weak negative correlation was observed among endocytosis-associated transcriptome, proteome and ubiquitylome. We found 33 common differentially expressed genes (DEGs), differentially expressed proteins (DEPs), and Kub-sites. Notably, we reported the HBV-induced ubiquitination change of secretory carrier membrane protein (SCAMP1) for the first time, differentially expressed across all three omics data sets. Overexpression of SCAMP1 efficiently inhibited HBV RNAs/pgRNA and secreted viral proteins, whereas knockdown of SCAMP1 significantly increased viral production. Mechanistically, the EnhI/XP, SP1, and SP2 promoters were inhibited by SCAMP1, which accounts for HBV X and S mRNA inhibition. Overall, our study unveils the previously unknown role of SCAMP1 in viral replication and HBV pathogenesis and provides cumulative and novel information for a better understanding of endocytosis in response to HBV infection.

Abstract
Ischemic stroke and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) are representative geriatric diseases with a rapidly increasing prevalence worldwide. Recent studies have reported an association between ischemic stroke neuropathology and AD neuropathology. Ischemic stroke shares some similar characteristics with AD, such as glia activation-induced neuroinflammation, amyloid beta accumulation, and neuronal cell loss, as well as some common risk factors with AD progression. Although there are considerable similarities in neuropathology between ischemic stroke and AD, no studies have ever compared specific genetic changes of brain cortex between ischemic stroke and AD. Therefore, in this study, I compared the cerebral cortex transcriptome profile of 5xFAD mice, an AD mouse model, with those of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) mice, an ischemic stroke mouse model. The data showed that the expression of many genes with important functional implications in MCAO mouse brain cortex were related to synaptic dysfunction and neuronal cell death in 5xFAD mouse model. In addition, changes in various protein-coding RNAs involved in synaptic plasticity, amyloid beta accumulation, neurogenesis, neuronal differentiation, glial activation, inflammation and neurite outgrowth were observed. The findings could serve as an important basis for further studies to elucidate the pathophysiology of AD in patients with ischemic stroke.

Abstract
Objective We have investigated the molecular function of SCAMP5, a candidate risk gene for SLE exclusively expressed in plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) among peripheral leucocytes. Methods We tested the independence of the association in SCAMP5 with SLE by performing conditional analyses. We profiled the expression pattern of SCAMP5 among circulating leucocytes at the transcript and protein levels. Using lentiviral vectors, we localised the subcellular distribution of SCAMP5 alongside the interferon secretory pathway. We analysed pDCs for the expression of SCAMP5 and interferon production capacity by SCAMP5 genotype. Finally, we examined pDC-specific SCAMP5 isoforms by total RNAseq analysis and examined for genotype-associated quantitative differences therein. Results A conditional analysis revealed evidence of an independent genetic association of SCAMP5 with SLE. Among circulating leucocytes, SCAMP5 is uniquely expressed in pDCs at the transcript and protein levels, with main presence in the Golgi apparatus and minor presence at the cell periphery. In live cells, SCAMP5 displayed dynamic Golgi-cell surface trafficking and localised with the interferon secretory pathway. SCAMP5 did not differ in expression levels in pDCs between genotyped donors; however, a transient interferon secretory defect was noted in pDCs from donors carrying the risk genotype. Conclusions SCAMP5 constitutes a novel SLE risk gene on the basis of genomic data and expression in a cell type widely implicated in SLE pathogenesis. While we could not find evidence of quantitative expression differences in SCAMP5 between genotyped donors, SCAMP5 remains an attractive gene to explore given its highly restricted expression pattern and colocalisation with interferon secretion.

Abstract
Due to the difficulties in early diagnosis of pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD), many patients fail to receive optimal therapeutic regimens. The Secretory-Carrier-Membrane-Proteins (SCAMPs) are known to be dysregulated in a range of human diseases due to their characterized roles in mammalian cell exocytosis inferred from their functions as integral membrane proteins. However, the expression and prognostic value of SCAMPs in PAAD is poorly characterized. We compared cancer vs. healthy tissue and found that the expression of SCAMPs1-4 was upregulated in PAAD compared to normal tissue. In contrast, SCAMP5 expression was downregulated in PAAD. Moreover, the expression of SCAMPs1-4 was enhanced in PAAD cell lines according to Cancer Cell Line public database. Furthermore, the HPA, GEPIA databases and immunohistochemical analysis from 238 patients suggested that the loss of SCAMP1 led to improved overall survival (OS), whilst lower SCAMP5 levels led to a poorer OS. The univariate and multivariate analysis showed that SCAMP1 and SCAMP5 expression were independent prognostic factors of PAAD. In addition, the cBioPortal for Cancer Genomics, LinkedOmics datasets, and the GEPIA were used to identify the co-expression genes of SCAMP1,5 and the correlation between SCAMPs members. We conclude that SCAMPs 1 and 5 significantly represent promising diagnosis and prognostic biomarkers.

Abstract
Objective: To establish and broaden the phenotypic spectrum of secretory carrier membrane protein (SCAMP5) associated with epilepsy and neurodevelopmental delay. Methods: A Chinese patient was identified at the First Hospital of Peking University, and the three unrelated patients were recruited from two different countries (Italy and United States) through GeneMatcher. SCAMP5 pathogenic variants were identified by whole exome sequencing; clinical data of the patients were retrospectively collected and analyzed. Result: The onset age of seizures was ranged from 6 to 15 months. Patients had different types of seizures, including focal seizures, generalized tonic-clonic seizures and tonic seizure. One patient showed typical autism spectrum disorder (ASD) symptoms. Electroencephalogram (EEG) findings presented as focal or multifocal discharges, sometimes spreading to generalization. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) abnormalities were present in each patient. Severe intellectual disability and language and motor developmental disorders were found in our patients, with all patients having poor language development and were nonverbal at last follow-up. All but one of the patients could walk independently in childhood, but the ability to walk independently in one patient had deteriorated with age. All patients had abnormal neurological exam findings, mostly signs of extrapyramidal system involvement. Dysmorphic features were found in 2/4 patients, mainly in the face and trunk. All four unrelated patients were found to have the same heterozygous pathogenic SCAMP5 de novo variant (p. Gly180Trp). Conclusion: Epilepsy, severe developmental delay, abnormal neurological exam findings, with or without ASD or variably dysmorphic features and were common in patients with SCAMP5 variant. The onset time and type of seizure varied greatly. The EEG and brain MRI findings were not consistent, but diverse and nonspecific. The motor ability of patients with heterozygous SCAMP5 variant might have a regressive course; language development was more severely affected.

Most proximity labeling techniques use a promiscuous biotin ligase or a peroxidase fused to a protein of interest, enabling the covalent biotin labeling of proteins and subsequent capture and identification of interacting and neighboring proteins without the need for the protein complex to remain intact. To date, only a few studies have reported on the use of proximity labeling in plants. Here, we present the results of a systematic study applying a variety of biotin-based proximity labeling approaches in several plant systems using various conditions and bait proteins. We show that TurboID is the most promiscuous variant in several plant model systems and establish protocols that combine mass spectrometry-based analysis with harsh extraction and washing conditions. We demonstrate the applicability of TurboID in capturing membrane-associated protein interactomes using Lotus japonicus symbiotically active receptor kinases as a test case. We further benchmark the efficiency of various promiscuous biotin ligases in comparison with one-step affinity purification approaches. We identified both known and novel interactors of the endocytic TPLATE complex. We furthermore present a straightforward strategy to identify both nonbiotinylated and biotinylated peptides in a single experimental setup. Finally, we provide initial evidence that our approach has the potential to suggest structural information of protein complexes.

Assessing the composition of the plasma membrane of Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum and L. (L.) amazonensis using label-free proteomics. Exp Parasitol 2020; 218:107964. [PMID: 32822697 DOI: 10.1016/j.exppara.2020.107964] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2020] [Revised: 07/27/2020] [Accepted: 07/28/2020] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
Protozoan parasites of the genus Leishmania are causative agents of leishmaniasis, a wide range of diseases affecting 12 million people worldwide. The species L. infantum and L. amazonensis are etiologic agents of visceral and cutaneous leishmaniasis, respectively. Most proteome analyses of Leishmania have been carried out on whole-cell extracts, but such an approach tends to underrepresent membrane-associated proteins due to their high hydrophobicity and low solubility. Considering the relevance of this category of proteins in virulence, invasiveness and the host-parasite interface, this study applied label-free proteomics to assess the plasma membrane sub-proteome of L. infantum and L. amazonensis. The number of proteins identified in L. infantum and L. amazonensis promastigotes was 1168 and 1455, respectively. After rigorous data processing and mining, 157 proteins were classified as putative plasma membrane-associated proteins, of which 56 proteins were detected in both species, six proteins were detected only in L. infantum and 39 proteins were exclusive to L. amazonensis. The quantitative analysis revealed that two proteins were more abundant in L. infantum, including the glucose transporter 2, and five proteins were more abundant in L. amazonensis. The identified proteins associated with distinct processes and functions. In this regard, proteins of L. infantum were linked to metabolic processes whereas L. amazonensis proteins were involved in signal transduction. Moreover, transmembrane transport was a significant process among the group of proteins detected in both species and members of the superfamily of ABC transporters were highly represented. Interestingly, some proteins of this family were solely detected in L. amazonensis, such as ABCA9. GP63, a well-known virulence factor, was the only GPI-anchored protein identified in the membrane preparations of both species. Finally, we found several proteins with uncharacterized functions, including differentially abundant ones, highlighting a gap in the study of Leishmania proteins. Proteins characterization could provide a better biological understanding of these parasites and deliver new possibilities regarding the discovery of therapeutic targets, drug resistance and vaccine candidates.

Abstract
Secretory carrier membrane proteins (SCAMPs) play an important role in exocytosis in animals, but the precise function of SCAMPs in human disease is unknown. In this study, we identified a homozygous mutation, SCAMP5 R91W, in a Chinese consanguineous family with pediatric epilepsy and juvenile Parkinson's disease. Scamp5 R91W mutant knock-in mice showed typical early-onset epilepsy similar to that in humans. Single-neuron electrophysiological recordings showed that the R91W mutation significantly increased the frequency of miniature excitatory postsynaptic currents (mEPSCs) at a resting state and also increased the amplitude of evoked EPSCs. The R91W mutation affected the interaction between SCAMP5 and synaptotagmin 1 and may affect the function of the SNARE complex, the machinery required for vesicular trafficking and neurotransmitter release. Our work shows that dysfunction of SCAMP5 shifted the excitation/inhibition balance of the neuronal network in the brain, and the deficiency of SCAMP5 leads to pediatric epilepsy.

MTSS1 and SCAMP1 cooperate to prevent invasion in breast cancer. Cell Death Dis 2018; 9:344.

Abstract
Cell-cell adhesions constitute the structural "glue" that retains cells together and contributes to tissue organisation and physiological function. The integrity of these structures is regulated by extracellular and intracellular signals and pathways that act on the functional units of cell adhesion such as the cell adhesion molecules/adhesion receptors, the extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins and the cytoplasmic plaque/peripheral membrane proteins. In advanced cancer, these regulatory pathways are dysregulated and lead to cell-cell adhesion disassembly, increased invasion and metastasis. The Metastasis suppressor protein 1 (MTSS1) plays a key role in the maintenance of cell-cell adhesions and its loss correlates with tumour progression in a variety of cancers. However, the mechanisms that regulate its function are not well-known. Using a system biology approach, we unravelled potential interacting partners of MTSS1. We found that the secretory carrier-associated membrane protein 1 (SCAMP1), a molecule involved in post-Golgi recycling pathways and in endosome cell membrane recycling, enhances Mtss1 anti-invasive function in HER2+/ER-/PR- breast cancer, by promoting its protein trafficking leading to elevated levels of RAC1-GTP and increased cell-cell adhesions. This was clinically tested in HER2 breast cancer tissue and shown that loss of MTSS1 and SCAMP1 correlates with reduced disease-specific survival. In summary, we provide evidence of the cooperative roles of MTSS1 and SCAMP1 in preventing HER2+/ER-/PR- breast cancer invasion and we show that the loss of Mtss1 and Scamp1 results in a more aggressive cancer cell phenotype.

Abstract
Background Secretory Carrier-Associated Membrane Proteins (SCAMPs) are highly conserved 32–38 kDa proteins that are involved in membrane trafficking. A systems approach was taken to elucidate function of SCAMPs in wood formation of Populus trees. Phenotypic and multi-omics analyses were performed in woody tissues of transgenic Populus trees carrying an RNAi construct for Populus tremula x tremuloides SCAMP3 (PttSCAMP3; Potri.019G104000). Results The woody tissues of the transgenic trees displayed increased amounts of both polysaccharides and lignin oligomers, indicating increased deposition of both the carbohydrate and lignin components of the secondary cell walls. This coincided with a tendency towards increased wood density as well as significantly increased thickness of the suberized cork in the transgenic lines. Multivariate OnPLS (orthogonal projections to latent structures) modeling of five different omics datasets (the transcriptome, proteome, GC-MS metabolome, LC-MS metabolome and pyrolysis-GC/MS metabolome) collected from the secondary xylem tissues of the stem revealed systemic variation in the different variables in the transgenic lines, including changes that correlated with the changes in the secondary cell wall composition. The OnPLS model also identified a rather large number of proteins that were more abundant in the transgenic lines than in the wild type. Several of these were related to secretion and/or endocytosis as well as both primary and secondary cell wall biosynthesis. Conclusions Populus SCAMP proteins were shown to influence accumulation of secondary cell wall components, including polysaccharides and phenolic compounds, in the woody tissues of Populus tree stems. Our multi-omics analyses combined with the OnPLS modelling suggest that this function is mediated by changes in membrane trafficking to fine-tune the abundance of cell wall precursors and/or proteins involved in cell wall biosynthesis and transport. The data provides a multi-level source of information for future studies on the function of the SCAMP proteins in plant stem tissues.

Abstract
The cell wall, a complex macromolecular composite structure surrounding and protecting plant cells, is essential for development, signal transduction, and disease resistance. This structure is also integral to cell expansion, as its tensile resistance is the primary balancing mechanism against internal turgor pressure. Throughout these processes, the biosynthesis, transport, deposition, and assembly of cell wall polymers are tightly regulated. The plant endomembrane system facilitates transport of polysaccharides, polysaccharide biosynthetic and modifying enzymes and glycoproteins through vesicle trafficking pathways. Although a number of enzymes involved in cell wall biosynthesis have been identified, comparatively little is known about the transport of cell wall polysaccharides and glycoproteins by the endomembrane system. This review summarizes our current understanding of trafficking of cell wall components during cell growth and cell division. Emerging technologies, such as vesicle glycomics, are also discussed as promising avenues to gain insights into the trafficking of structural polysaccharides to the apoplast.

Overexpression of SCAMP3 is an indicator of poor prognosis in hepatocellular carcinoma. Oncotarget 2017; 8:109247-109257.

Abstract
SCAMP3, an isoform of the secretory carrier membrane proteins (SCAMPs) family, is a membrane-trafficking protein involved in endosome transport. Previous microarray data showed that SCAMP3 mRNA is highly expressed in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In this study, the expression and clinical significance of SCAMP3 in 100 pairs of HCC and adjacent normal tissue were investigated. siRNA transfection was performed to silence SCAMP3 expression in HCC cells. The MTS assay and flow cytometry were used to detect the proliferation, cell cycle progression of HCC cells. Compared with adjacent normal tissues, SCAMP3 expression was dramatically increased in HCC tissues demonstrated by Western blotting (P < 0.05). In immunohistochemistry, compared with the adjacent normal tissues, SCAMP3 was detected in 96% of the HCC samples with a significant increase in intensity and number of stained cells (P < 0.05). Also, high SCAMP3 expression was found in 86% of the HCC samples (P < 0.05). The increased SCAMP3 expression was significantly correlated with vascular invasion (P = 0.004) and tumor stage (P = 0.001). Univariate and multivariate survival analyses showed that the expression of SCAMP3 was an independent prognostic factor of overall survival of HCC patients. Knockdown of SCAMP3 expression led to suppression of cell proliferation and blockage of cell cycle of HCC cells. In conclusion, our present study suggested that SCAMP3 may serve as a promising prognostic biomarker and molecular target of HCC and further investigation is warranted.

Abstract
Different from animal cells that divide by constriction of the cortex inward, cells of land plants divide by initiating a new cell-wall segment from their center. For this, a disk-shaped, membrane-enclosed precursor termed the cell plate is formed that radially expands toward the parental cell wall [1-3]. The synthesis of the plate starts with the fusion of vesicles into a tubulo-vesicular network [4-6]. Vesicles are putatively delivered to the division plane by transport along microtubules of the bipolar phragmoplast network that guides plate assembly [7-9]. How vesicle immobilization and fusion are then locally triggered is unclear. In general, a framework for how the cytoskeleton spatially defines cell-plate formation is lacking. Here we show that membranous material for cell-plate formation initially accumulates along regions of microtubule overlap in the phragmoplast of the moss Physcomitrella patens. Kinesin-4-mediated shortening of these overlaps at the onset of cytokinesis proved to be required to spatially confine membrane accumulation. Without shortening, the wider cell-plate membrane depositions evolved into cell walls that were thick and irregularly shaped. Phragmoplast assembly thus provides a regular lattice of short overlaps on which a new cell-wall segment can be scaffolded. Since similar patterns of overlaps form in central spindles of animal cells, involving the activity of orthologous proteins [10, 11], we anticipate that our results will help uncover universal features underlying membrane-cytoskeleton coordination during cytokinesis.

Abstract
Glucosinolates (Gls) constitute a major group of natural metabolites represented by three major classes (aliphatic, indolic and aromatic) of more than 120 chemical structures. In our previous work, soluble proteins and metabolites in Arabidopsis mutants deficient of aliphatic (myb28/29) and indolic Gls (cyp79B2B3) were analyzed. Here we focus on investigating the changes at the level of membrane proteins in these mutants. Our LC/MS-MS analyses of tandem mass tag (TMT) labeled peptides derived from the cyp79B2/B3 and myb28/29 relative to wild type resulted in the identification of 4,673 proteins, from which 2,171 are membrane proteins. Fold changes and statistical analysis showed 64 increased and 74 decreased in cyp79B2/B3, while 28 increased and 17 decreased in myb28/29. As to the shared protein changes between the mutants, one protein was increased and eight were decreased. Bioinformatics analysis of the changed proteins led to the discovery of three cytochromes in glucosinolate molecular network (GMN): cytochrome P450 86A7 (At1g63710), cytochrome P450 71B26 (At3g26290), and probable cytochrome c (At1g22840). CYP86A7 and CYP71B26 may play a role in hydroxyl-indolic Gls production. In addition, flavone 3'-O-methyltransferase 1 represents an interesting finding as it is likely to participate in the methylation process of the hydroxyl-indolic Gls to form methoxy-indolic Gls. The analysis also revealed additional new nodes in the GMN related to stress and defense activity, transport, photosynthesis, and translation processes. Gene expression and protein levels were found to be correlated in the cyp79B2/B3, but not in the myb28/29.

Abstract
Secretory Carrier Membrane Proteins (SCAMPs) are a group of tetraspanning integral membrane proteins evolutionarily conserved from insects to mammals and plants. Mammalian genomes contain five SCAMP genes SCAMP1-SCAMP5 that regulate membrane dynamics, most prominently membrane-depolarization and Ca2+-induced regulated secretion, a key mechanism for neuronal and neuroendocrine signaling. However, the biological role of SCAMPs has remained poorly understood primarily owing to the lack of appropriate model organisms and behavior assays. Here we generate Drosophila Scamp null mutants and show that they exhibit reduced lifespan and behavioral abnormalities including impaired climbing, deficiency in odor associated long-term memory, and a susceptibility to heat-induced seizures. Neuron-specific restoration of Drosophila Scamp rescues all Scamp null behavioral phenotypes, indicating that the phenotypes are due to loss of neuronal Scamp. Remarkably, neuronal expression of human SCAMP genes rescues selected behavioral phenotypes of the mutants, suggesting the conserved function of SCAMPs across species. The newly developed Drosophila mutants present the first evidence that genetic depletion of SCAMP at the organismal level leads to varied behavioral abnormalities, and the obtained results indicate the importance of membrane dynamics in neuronal functions in vivo.

Abstract
Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi form a symbiotic association with several plant species. An arbuscule, a finely branched structure of AM fungi, is formed in root cells and plays essential roles in resource exchange. Because arbuscules are ephemeral, host cells containing collapsed arbuscules can be recolonized, and a wide region of roots can be continuously colonized by AM fungi, suggesting that repetitive recolonization in root cells is required for continuous mycorrhization. However, recolonization frequency has not been quantified because of the lack of appropriate markers for visualization of the cellular processes after arbuscule collapse; therefore, the nature of the colonization sequence remains uncertain. Here we observed that a green fluorescent protein (GFP)-tagged secretory carrier membrane protein (SCAMP) of rice was expressed even in cells with collapsed arbuscules, allowing live imaging coupled with GFP-SCAMP to evaluate the colonization and recolonization sequences. The average lifetime of intact arbuscules was 1-2 d. Cells with collapsed arbuscules were rarely recolonized and formed a new arbuscule during the observation period of 5 d, whereas de novo colonization occurred even in close proximity to cells containing collapsed arbuscules and contributed to the expansion of the colonized region. Colonization spread into an uncolonized region of roots but sparsely into a previously colonized region having no metabolically active arbuscule but several intercellular hyphae. Therefore, we propose that a previously colonized region tends to be intolerant to new colonization in rice roots. Our observations highlight the overlooked negative impact of the degeneration stage of arbuscules in the colonization sequence.

Abstract
For building and maintaining the complex structure of the surrounding wall throughout their life, plant cells rely on the endomembrane system, which functions as the main provider and transporter of cell wall constituents. Efforts to understand the mechanisms of synthesis and transport of cell wall materials have been generating valuable information for diverse practical applications. Nonetheless, the identity of the endomembrane components necessary for the transport of cell wall enzymes and polysaccharides is not well known. Evidence indicates that plant cells can accomplish secretion of cell wall constituents through multiple pathways during development or under stress conditions and, that compared with other eukaryotes, they rely on a highly diversified toolkit of proteins for membrane traffic. This suggests that production of the cell wall in plants consists of intricate and highly regulated pathways. In this review, we summarize important discoveries that have allowed the activities of the plant secretory pathway to be linked to the production and deposition of cell wall-synthesizing enzymes and polysaccharides.

Abstract
The unfolded protein response (UPR) is a signaling network triggered by overload of protein-folding demand in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), a condition termed ER stress. The UPR is critical for growth and development; nonetheless, connections between the UPR and other cellular regulatory processes remain largely unknown. Here, we identify a link between the UPR and the phytohormone auxin, a master regulator of plant physiology. We show that ER stress triggers down-regulation of auxin receptors and transporters in Arabidopsis thaliana. We also demonstrate that an Arabidopsis mutant of a conserved ER stress sensor IRE1 exhibits defects in the auxin response and levels. These data not only support that the plant IRE1 is required for auxin homeostasis, they also reveal a species-specific feature of IRE1 in multicellular eukaryotes. Furthermore, by establishing that UPR activation is reduced in mutants of ER-localized auxin transporters, including PIN5, we define a long-neglected biological significance of ER-based auxin regulation. We further examine the functional relationship of IRE1 and PIN5 by showing that an ire1 pin5 triple mutant enhances defects of UPR activation and auxin homeostasis in ire1 or pin5. Our results imply that the plant UPR has evolved a hormone-dependent strategy for coordinating ER function with physiological processes.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species are known to play pivotal roles in pathogen perception, recognition and downstream defense signaling. But, how these redox alarms coordinate in planta into a defensive network is still intangible. Present study illustrates the role of Fusarium oxysporum f.sp ciceri Race1 (Foc1) induced redox responsive transcripts in regulating downstream defense signaling in chickpea. Confocal microscopic studies highlighted pathogen invasion and colonization accompanied by tissue damage and deposition of callose degraded products at the xylem vessels of infected roots of chickpea plants. Such depositions led to the clogging of xylem vessels in compatible hosts while the resistant plants were devoid of such obstructions. Lipid peroxidation assays also indicated fungal induced membrane injury. Cell shrinkage and gradual nuclear adpression appeared as interesting features marking fungal ingress. Quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction exhibited differential expression patterns of redox regulators, cellular transporters and transcription factors during Foc1 progression. Network analysis showed redox regulators, cellular transporters and transcription factors to coordinate into a well orchestrated defensive network with sugars acting as internal signal modulators. Respiratory burst oxidase homologue, cationic peroxidase, vacuolar sorting receptor, polyol transporter, sucrose synthase, and zinc finger domain containing transcription factor appeared as key molecular candidates controlling important hubs of the defense network. Functional characterization of these hub controllers may prove to be promising in understanding chickpea-Foc1 interaction and developing the case study as a model for looking into the complexities of wilt diseases of other important crop legumes.
